Anyone have any guinea's for sale? I have a friend who wants a few to try and control the horrific tick seas we're already having. Send me a message so I don't miss it since i'm not getting notifications again for some reason.
I hope all had an enjoyable Easter
I'm just doing a quick check in!!! I hope all is well with everyone. The kids and i have been sick for the better part of 2 months with bronchitis, colds, and the flu. Hopefully its all over now. I've got super broody hen who i thought had been carted off by a preditor but then found her 2...
Just checking in since I have not in quite a while. Everyone here is doing well, FINALLY getting eggs it's only been what seems to be a lifetime! I've got 3 laying, just waiting for the others to follow suit. Been busier than a one legged man in a butt kickin contest with school happenings...

When I decided to process mine I found an excellent video on YouTube. It was VERY informative and very well done. They went from start to finish in great detail. It was a huge help to me. I had to watch it 4 or 5 times and take notes. Believe me Daphne...once you cut the first one..work...

Moreso than rabbits!!!! My cats dont bother the chickens and they had never been exposed to them till i got the chickens and they were both grown/almost grown and the barn cat >by her choosing< gets pecked in the rear end a lot because they pick on her, but she has been caught sitting...

One good remedy if you don't have access to penning your dog is muzzles...it frustrates the heck out of them too!!!! We don't have a dog now but.....the neighbors do. I think they have finally listened when I told them....the pellet gun is put up....but the 22 is now out.
Sorry to...

I hope you got said cat fixed now!! My chickens dont chase back..its odd but they are really good at running for their lives! My bostons team up with my moms jack russel so its just easier to keep them in the fence. I might be able to be talked into a kitten tho, you'll have to do some...

My big problem is the cat that...
Hows everyone doing? Enjoying the cooler weather here, the birdies are too! Been having issues with my dogs and the birds relationship as of late. The dogs want to chase and the birds want to escape. I lost the mill fleur "Baby Elvis" to them last week, and i lost my alpha roo >barred rock<...

morning folks! Gonna be a very nice day today! Just a tiny little mini vent here this morning.
I'm just wondering why people raise rabbits for meat instead of doing it the old fashion way and get your boots on and take a walk to get some? My 3 babies are finally ready to go to their new homes...
