I took my 1-month-old Red Star chicks outside today. I have 8 females and 7 males. I will process the males at 3 months old regardless of how heavy they are.
I think the reason why you thought it didn't work is because it was probably still clearing your neighbors' mosquitoes. It won't clear all the mosquitos overnight.
The ad on the Amufer zapper say they created a new uv light that attracts mosquitos and I believe they did. Plus, the uv light last...
I am glad I bought an electric air blower for the ion batteries I purchased by mistake for my Makita drill. I am making good use of it. I use my air blower to clean my mosquito zappers. This zapper cost about the same as replacement bulbs for my Dyna Mosquito trap and it's easier to clean. I...
Since only one of my hens is laying, I have been putting her eggs in the same incubator every 3 days. I only checked the first three eggs that I put in, and they were fertilized. All three eggs had a black dot with movement inside the egg. I have a total of 8 eggs. I plan on moving four of them...
My Red star egg layer chicks that I got on Sept. 15 will be 3 weeks old by end of week. They are already feathered out and were off the heat lamp at around two and a half weeks old. I have their pen in a spare room, and I started leaving the windows open at night. I'll move them outside when...
The other day, I had my 3 young roosters locked up and I let my 4 old hens out of their coop. Later in the evening I went to lock them up again and I notice that one of the hens were missing. I did an all-out search for her in the morning and gave up. I let my 3 young roosters out to help me...
I couldn't find any eggs from my old hens in their nest box, so I locked them up for three days and found 3 strong shell eggs today. I also locked them up to protect them from my 3-sex crazy young roosters.
I placed the 3 eggs in my Chickcozy incubator and notice that the egg holder looks over...
I found out that drinking too much water is not a good thing because it flushes all the nutrients and electrolyte out of my body. This threw me off because I love to drink ice cold water throughout the day and it's hard for me to stop.

My McMurray Red star chicks arrived today. It was shipped on the 15th of September, and I received them on the 16th at 1 pm. I got 7 males and 8 females on a straight run order of 15. They started eating and running around as soon as I placed them in their play pen. I pre-ordered them in the...
I went to lock my hen coop up and saw two young roosters perch up with them. The third youngest one is still sleeping outside in another open coop. I must separate them tonight or something bad will happen. The young roosters are sex crazy.......... :wee
The hormones in my 3 young roosters have peaked and they are now tag teaming all the mean hens 3 on one. I will lock the hens in tonight without the roosters to keep them from dying. I will keep the molting hens locked up until they start laying again and then I will let my white and brown...
My 3 young roosters all have different crow sounds. One is normal and matches the loud irritating sound of other roosters in my neighborhood. He will probably be the first to go. The second one starts off with a lower sounding crow that fizzles out before the last long sound and the last one is...
My hens started molting and have stopped laying eggs, so I stir fried bolted lettuce leaves and lunch and meat for breakfast. And I found that the lettuce can replace the egg in my opinion.
I received my Smart Wonder Core from amazon today and I did a little of all the exercises in the picture except for scissor kicks. I did enough of each exercise to feel a little burn in my muscles. Later in the day, I took a nap and never slept like this in a long time. In conclusion, the...
