    Breeders of heritage meet birds

    Does anyone out there raise and breed their own heritage meat birds and can ship and sell them as chicks? I heard the heritage breeders have a lot better stock than the hatcheries. I am in Idaho.

    Dual purpose breed for tick control

    I am curious to see what breeds you guys would recommend for me as I'd like to start raising chickens for some meat as well (and I have also spent lots of time searching the forums here). I live in Wisconsin, so winter hardiness is important, and on ten acres. My primary purpose for my birds...

    FREE HERITAGE BREED HENS: Schomberg, ONTARIO

    For the past several months we’ve been battling an episode of feather-picking and, after MANY attempts to correct the problem, we’ve determined it's a result of overcrowding. Consequently, we’ve reluctantly decided to rehome five of our poor, picked-on hens. If anyone is interested in taking...

I have a batch of 25-or-so RIR/Rock/Sussex/Orp chicks that are about 2 months old now, and I'm wondering if there is anything I can feed them in addition to their usual feed that will make them even tastier than they already will be? They're currently getting Flock Raiser, plants from...

    Porter's Rare Heritage Crossbreeds

    So the plan was to buy some Narragansetts (or something similar) this year and raise to sell for eating, and so I can collect the feathers. Then I found Porter's crossbreed turkeys and am in love with the pencilled palms and similar. I am wondering if anyone here has the pencilled or any other...

    Originating in the U.S. during the colonial period was the Dominique, also known as Dominicker. This is literally America's oldest breed of chicken.
