    Some people are just so uneducated.

    So I am not a chicken owner yet, but I'm super excited that I will someday be. My husband supports me completely, and my oldest daughter is happy that she will get to play with baby chicks when she's older. But there are a few people who just don't get it. I've stopped telling a lot of my...

    I Can Has Chikenz, yes? (for the Kansas City Metro area)

    I know that BYC offers a lot of very useful info when it comes to municipal codes, however there is not much listed as far as Kansas City goes (not BYC's fault, they can only do so much). If any of you out there are from the Kansas City metro area just let me know and I can tell you whether or...

As my friend and I were driving home from the mall, we passed someone's pasture and saw about 5 or 6 cows munching away on grass. It would have been a regular daily sight, since I live in Kansas and see cows...

    Any advice on raising goats?

    I'm sure I'll get a lot of replies to this, because it's pretty much an open-ended question.... Where I live is not big enough to have goats (plus I live in the city so my neighbors probably wouldn't like the constant bleating....) and we are not in a position to move anytime soon. Does anyone...

    Which is better for beginners - Chicks or Pullets?

    As a newbie, you'll have to excuse me if I seem like I don't know what I'm talking about because I probably don't. So within the past few years, I've really wanted to start homesteading. I have a big enough yard (front and back) that I think I can manage most of what I want to do right where...

    Newcomer from Oz

    Hello all! It's nice to see some fellow chicken enthusiasts. I actually found this site while searching for Olathe, KS (my hometown) chicken laws. Lovely to be a part of this and nice to meet all of you.
