Just a reminder of our 9th Annual Homesteading Weekend coming up the weekend after Father's Day. Check out the link in my signature line for more details. It is always a great time to connect with like-minded folks and we love having birds here for swap or trade.

Question for those hatching poults ... do you let the hen brood them or do you take them from the hen and brood them yourself?? We have done it both ways these last 10 years. Always have better results when we brood the poults ourselves. When we leave the poults with the hens, we experience...

C'mon SNOW!! We need winter and the moisture the snow brings.

Jamie, You really should venture about 45 miles to the east of you to our place. We can give you an education on chickens (& other poultry) as well as other homesteading things you can do in town! I kept chickens, honey bees & meat rabbits at my home in the middle of a subdivision before we...

Quote: and to the Illinois thread!! I'm just east of you, between I-88 and I-80, west of I-39. What kind of flock do you have? And I'm between the two of you in Whiteside County. If you don't have coyotes, then you have fox. Of the two, I prefer coyotes. They'll take a bird, but they...
