I'm just north of Columbia...I actually have some easter eggers in my mixed flock (two lay green eggs, one lays blue)...super easy keepers. We surely don't need any more chickens (husband has threatened that any survivors will be flying into the freezer), but I have a friend that wants to get...

Thanks for all the advice y'all! I've never tried apple cider vinegar wraps...I use old towels soaked in very warm water with epsom salts, covered with vet wrap for my Arabian horse when his arthritis flares-up (he's 21 years old, but it hasn't flared-up but twice in the last year..and a little...

Hey y'all - quick newbie question: I think my Jersey Giant, Mica, has gone broody...but I want to verify b/c she also has a leg issue (want to make sure it isn't the old leg just acting up). She's been hanging in the nest box except when I let them out to free-range...then when her crop is...

Like TinTennessee said, check neighborhood covenants and deed restrictions in addition to city/county rules. I live outside city limits in Maury County (fairly rural)...we can have livestock, the neighbors behind us cannot. They are considered a subdivision (even though they are in the...

Ahhhhh...but if we are going to pay USPS the extra money, I'd hope they'd actually take the additional care. When I ordered my chicks, I paid QUITE a bit (I had a small order that had to be shipped over-night...the cost of shipping was actually more than the cost of the chicks...about $40...)...

Over in Ethridge - one of the century farms over in Amish county (but owned by the English). We've got horses, and have found pretty slim pickens for good hay around Columbia/Spring Hill...

I'm in Maury County...but I'm down in Lawrence County at least once a month for hay...

Thanks - I actually had stumbled across their website before. Absolute cuties, but EXPENSIVE. (Same thing w/that breeder outside Selmer.) I think we're going to have issues b/c we want the assurance of a healthy animal, but really don't really want/need a superior milker/show goat. Thanks!

Hiya All - I was wondering if someone could recommend a Pygmy goat or Nigerian Dwarf goat breeder in the area. Lori - I know you have Nubians - do you happen to know anyone around with Pygmy/Dwarf goats? Finally talked the hubby into a couple dairy goats - we were recently offered some...

Welcome to TN! My folks retired to Savannah about 8 years ago - they love it there (transplants from West Texas). I'll check to see if the folks have heard of anyone with ameraucanas...I know some folks near Nashville, but not from that neck-of-the-woods... Oh, and if no one in Savannah has...

Anne - I am SO sorry to hear about your birds. It wasn't that beautiful Easter Egger rooster was it? I LOVED him! (I was actually planning on trying to convince the hubby to let me buy one of your EE roos out him to breed to our EE hens this spring...) I would think it was a dog (since they...

If he still has some next Wednesday, I may make a run...that's when the kiddo goes back to school (and I'd just as soon not try and drag him along)...I'll let y'all know, and put out "feelers" to see if anyone b/t Columbia and Smyrna needs any...

I can't believe the police came after YOU...my parents are dealing with a neighborhood feud involving chickens and dogs (but in reverse...the chicken-owner shot a neighbor's dog in front of us as we walked on the road with my 3-year old...took a BLIND shot, at that). The dog lived, and the...

Last time I used a small flatbed AND the truck bed to get them...even at that I could only get eight...

DOH! I was going to go back for some more. Oh well, I'll keep an eye out...and if anyone b/t Smyrna and Columbia wants any the next time they're up, let me know. Countrypunk - no hinges, just some flimsy lid frames, BUT I will tell you that you slap some lattice work around them, and they...

Someone on another thread rec'd giving them some apple cider vinegar in their water to jump start laying...I was skeptical (but it does help boost my horse's appetite when he goes off feed, so, I figured 'why not')...seemed to really help my EE. Granted they were pullets (and it might just have...

YIKES! Didn't think about the shoes (although I have a pair of crocs I use for "critter chores," so I should be OK...I'll have to sanitize my son's shoes, though...we were pretty paranoid about hitting the hand sanitizer at each barn, though). Can't believe I missed y'all by so little...doh...

Yeah...sorry I missed y'all. I tried checking with the "Coordinators" stationed at each entrance (but they weren't terribly helpful). Had a good time, though (watched the parade from the Poultry Barn)...and decided that my GLW Opal would have done REALLY WELL if I had entered her...hehe...

I is here...where is you guys? (At Wilson Co. Fair Poultry Barn.)

I'm going to try to make it up from Columbia. I'll have a little one with me, too (my son is three). See y'all at 7PM!
