I've never bought scratch for my chickens. Is there some reason I should? I let them free-range forage, eat crumbles free fed, and give them my parrots cast offs (they eat a pelleted diet and have seed treats). I cook lentils and beans and pasta for everybody weekly. Should I buy a bag of...

Check with local butchers. I googled and quite a few came up!

Bi-Mart feed is at regular price: 25lb Hatch to hen - $7.99 50lb Layer - $15.99 50lb Chicken Crack (scratch) - $12.99 It is expected to go on sale mid-June.

Hatch to Lay or Layer? Or either and any? I'm busy trying to keep my 5 remaining chicks alive. It would be a lot easier if I knew what killed the first 3, especially the one yesterday. I'm none too happy right now.

Lost another chick. Totally clueless as to why. All seem healthy and happy. Getting a bit defeated and ready to give up. I've NEVER lost a single chick before. I finally convinced myself that the two that died the day after arrival might have just been too stressed. That was the week we had...

I second the "hidden injury" theory. Just keep a close eye on them. Of course there IS another serious longshot scenario. They caught them a mouse!

Oh... and it was also the lightest of the 8 chicks. So, lost 2 and at least one of remaining 6 may very well be a rooster. Grrrr!

I know it is a tad early to call, but... One of my chicks is bigger than most of the others. It's wing and tail feathers are LESS developed than the others, but its comb-to-be is wider and a tad more puffy than the others. Who wants to take bets?

If it is decent out tomorrow, I will take some really good ones and PM them to you through messenger!

Feel free! And tell this sucky weather to clear up. I have a coop to finish!

:PSoon as I finish coffee... Out to finish building an epic coop!

I would love to post some! This site hates my phone. And my phone is still refusing to talk to my new laptop. I've posted some on Facebook. Perhaps Lil Go Peep could copy and paste them from there?

I put a 2x4 in there edgewise. They think playing double dutch and king of the mountain with it is the best fun EVAH! LOL

So... what does everyone think about the major increase in earthquake and volcanic activity in the are? Add in the weird weather that has Alaska breaking YEARLY, not even just seasonal, highs... the typhons, the cold eather in Oklahoma, etc. I say tht the zombie apocolypse approaches and our...

And... just because I ordered all girls does NOT mean that they all are! And I am NOT allowed roosters by code. So... we shall see!

she has not logged in here for over a year. I'm not looking for chicks or eggs. I am looking for experience. newest alien chicken fact... These guys are about a week and a half old. They are the size of a "LF" chick now (even though they ARE a LF, these guys are pretty tiny). Ready for it...

Vanilla is expensive due to what is needed to PROCESS it. Growing and harvesting are easy. Oh! And a little dab will do ya! If you throw just a half bean into a full pound of sugar, it will flavor it for exquisite coffee or to make vanilla syrup with! Stick the other half in some loose tea...

Any idea of the variety? Many are medicinal!

She meant creeping myrtle. Also called periwinkle or vinca.
