I slipped a few some chicks under a broody BO last week with no issues. Always do it at night when they are sleeping. I went under her palming three chicks, let them go, and palmed the three eggs on the way out. a cackle or two, then right back to sleep.

it seems to me that instead of reinventing the wheel time and time again, the most efficient method is to condition ones' self to compartmentalize these feelings, choose the conventional method that sounds most appealing, and become masterful by practicing your craft. often times the the real...

I read today on WBFF-Fox45's Facebook page: Quote:

Congrats, Gilroy. Oddly enough, I live in San Jose and usually buy my hens in Gilroy.

you said no as if it's very bad. curious minds..?

I had a hen die once from a crop issue -- What seems like something insignificant to us may be a big deal with birds. I used to let them at grass clippings, but imo the clippings they ingest are at times too long -- When they bite some turf/grass, they naturally take the size appropriate for...

For the first time since coming here I have chicken envy. What a wonderful group of birds!

Is he a border collie? I had one as a kid (more of a calico pattern though), wonderfully loyal dogs.

As a native Baltimorean (transplanted to Silicon Valley nowadays), I spent much of my youth from Denton to the eastern shore -- Beautiful land, water, great hunting and fishing, aw well as good people. I can't tell you how many summers I spent on the Nanticoke River, fishing and relaxing.

dumb people in positions of power is sometimes frustrating. My deceased Mom used PNC, but I did a lot of her financial stuff, boy they were a pain in the toukas to deal with on every level.

i plant 3x as many tomatoes as I used to so the hens have their own place to frolic and feast. My cousin just bought me a book called "Chicken Gardens" by Jessica Bloom, it's really interesting thus far and has given me some good ideas for changes/modifications.

Humans gone broody :p

Please keep us updated on your progress.

I live in South San Jose, and I recently adopted a few birds from a lady in Hayward who got cited. Such a shame, her yard was very tidy, and the birds are sweethearts to this very day. :-(

What amazes me is how much a few people can sour an entire neighborhood, or even a city council in some cases. No matter where you go, there's always one (or a few). Years ago, my next door neighbor was this way -- They were the first family in the 'hood (1969), and I run a care home for...

this is what i did as well :-)

I find flock dynamics fascinating as well. good read!

cats can carry toxoplasmosis and are way more "filthier" than a chicken.

your removal of the hens is akin to capitulating to an ordinance that does not exist. No ordinance means it's perfectly legal.

I never realized a chicken could get theirselves 40' up? It must take a mighty effort?
