Wow, I don't think I have ever heard that one before, Vehve! That's actually fascinating to me I really want to switch our pets over to raw diets as soon as I can and I have heard a lot of arguments against it but never have I heard it would make the dogs mean XD. Crazy people.
That's...
Thanks for all the info, guys! It really did not add up in my head but I guess what I really wanted was reassurance ^^;. I'm not sure I'll ever know what happened to his flock - frankly I am afraid to ask in case I come across as rude for not believing the original cautionary tale. And I don't...
(For arguments sake let's pretend bugs and such don't count.)
I read on this forum quite a bit and it seems to me that a lot of BYCers feed their flocks meat. Chickens being omnivores I never even think twice about it. I've even fed my girls some deer scraps when I had the chance. I wish I had...
I can't advise what the clips do (I am curious myself!) but I am so glad your chicken seems to be doing well. My grandfather recently lost the three young hens I raised for him because of a visiting dog - the family member who owned the dog simply did not care enough to lock him up and went...

Hello, all! I was hoping that some of you kind folks might help me to identify the breeds of my bantams. I apologize in advance if the pictures are not very helpful - I took them before I knew what angles were more helpful and they're all I have left now after I lost my little babies to dogs :/...
Lady Feathers:
It's reassuring to hear your flock is healthy . I'm not so worried, anymore. I'll just check them often and keep risks minimal.
Chicken math O.O. More self control...no XD. But less space, yes. I could hold a MAX of, say, 30 birds here. Unless I penned the whole yard.
I hope I...
