Ended 2021 Chicken Gift-Ideas Giveaway - Over $500 In Gifts Up To $35 Each!

[3KillerBs]

I have used both cones and the shackles. They will flap themselves out of the cone unless you hold them by their head. They won't do that with the shackles. BUT we had 4/20 birds break wings while flapping in shackles, so purely personal preference. Shackles seem very slightly faster and more efficient because if you have multiple you can quickly move from one bird to the next.

I've only used the broomstick.

But my wrists have taken damage since then and I'm not sure I could hold on to a sizeable meatie.

Hi Peeps!!

This was SUPER fun last year, so we're doing it again! A Tractor Supply Company (TSC) and Amazon chicken gift idea giveaway!


We're getting close to that time of year when many of us will be thinking about gifts for our loved ones... well, if there's one thing we've learned over the years, is that many of us LOVE our chickens! So, why not include them in the list of gift recipients?

Our goal is to find out which gifts available through TSC and Amazon would be most fun and popular in 2020. Not only will this process help our community discover fun chicken gifts, but it helps us too as BYC gets a tiny % of each sale made through links to TSC and Amazon. (Note, this does NOT increase the price of the items... it just gives BYC a few pennies for referring you to their sites).

Prizes:
15 peeps will each receive their choice of any of the prizes listed below!

• $25 Amazon Gift Certificate
• $25 TSC Gift Certificate
• $30 BYC Store Gift Certificate
• $32 Value: BYC Calendar + 3 Month PFM
• $35 valued 6-Month PFM

TO ENTER THE GIVEAWAY:

1. Search for a product/item at TSC or Amazon that you have purchased or would like to purchase as a gift for your flock or favorite chicken (adding a picture would be great too ).
2. Copy the link to the item and then reply to this thread with a link to the product and a quick sentence on why you like it, why you think it would be great for your flock, etc.
3. Come back every day to post a new item! LIMIT: One link per reply, and one submission per day, per user.
4. Check out other people's posts, and "like" or "love" the ones that you think are items you would also want to get someday.
5. We'll finish accepting submissions at the end-of-day 10/31 (Pacific Time).
6. We'll be randomly choosing from the replies (using www.random.org). See the winner-choosing schedule below!

Every 7 days we're going to pick a random winner from all the previous posts up until that moment.

I'd love to get this chicken run from TSC. I've been having more and more issues with predators during the day, so having additional protected run-space would be excellent:

These are great! A must-have to rotate the meaties to fresh pasture if you don't have a tractor.

this has helped me so much as I have a hard time cracking eggs, one side regular chicken eggs, the other bantam or quail eggs

Hi guys, for today's post I'll share something that was nit only very helpful for my skin, but I'm certain will also be very beneficial for our feathered friends' skin too: introducing Green Goo Natural Skin Care for Cracked Hands and Feet, White, First Aid, Large Tin, 1.82 Ounce https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DTICWX...t_i_DBES92RC0ZS4YJFY1T0N?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

It truly works miracles and I know each ingredient was chosen with good intention. I think it'd help bumblefoot and/or serve as early intervention. Highly recommend

What?
It's for burning down an old rotten coop.

I find myself recommending this all the time on BYC. So many poultry could use a boost of vitamins from time to time. So easy to use just a small amount in a gallon of water. I have bought and used several little tubs of these.
