Thanks Tori! I don't need pics, I just wasn't sure how many you had to go around. As long as they're old enough to be outside.

Yeah, I saw you had said that after I wrote that. Sorry, my brain is in hibernation mode.

Send me a bill, and a paypal address whenever you're ready!

Donna and Carmen and anyone else brave enough to go out the weekend after dividends, be careful! I went to Costco yesterday and that was bad enough. I think people are pre-spending their dividends. I know I spent an obscene amount. But I wont have to go out much this winter!​

Is there a fool proof method to skimming the fat off of homemade chicken stock?

Hi, Im new to the forum. I was told there wasn an Alaskan thread so Had to check it out

. I am raising chickens for the first time. I got the first five (3 Road Island Reds and 2 Golden Comets) last June (they were hatched on may 25th) then the other 5 Barred Rock a month later. At the same time I picked up the barred rock I Also Got a goose to be the little guard dog

Well today I went into palmer and came home with 4 more birds lol. I saw an add on Craigs list for some roosters, and the one that caught my eye was a Barred Rock rooster. Well after going over for 1 bird I came home with 4 more lol. the 2 year old Barred rock, a 6 month old (forgive me if I miss spell these lol) Americauna rooster and 2 1.5 year old (I think she said they were ) Wynadettes Hens. One of the poor hens has had some bad frost bite and actually has 3 toes missing and part of her comb isnt quite right. But all 4 birds seem to be pretty sweet towards people, the 2 year old rooster pecked at my friend when i picked them up but hasnt been aggresive towards me or my 2 little kids at all. My biggest concern will be how the Big rooster does with the big goose lol.
