Arizona Chickens

[COLOR=333333]Senator Farnsworth, has won the Republican primary for LD-16. He is the one that has been fighting for AZ land property rights in the form of SB1151. It's time to get him re-elected in November so we can get chicken bill 2.0 passed. [/COLOR]

I read some of the chicken bill 2.0, is he trying to make a law to tell people how to raise there chickens or just to advise them of a better way to do so? All I can tell is that it is one persons opinion on how he took care of his chickens.

I'm not sure what you've read, but chicken bill 2.0 doesn't exist. What are you referring to?
 
I have been thinking about getting a few geese come springtime. I couldn't decide between Toulouse or Embdens, but I was just looking at Metzer Farms (a BYC sponsor), and I think I've decided to go with the Embdens. Anybody on this thread have any geese?

I have a Roman Tuft goose. We all love "nibbles" her breed is a smaller breed. She is living quite happily with my ducks and free range egg layers. I have also thought about embdens but I gotta say I am in love with my tuft. she is so sweet and although protective she is not obnoxious. my boys can pick her up and hold her and carry her around which most geese hate.

I have never seen a chicken chase a goat. poor goat. My goat would have butted the chicken away. I also wanted to know where I can get info on this chicken bill?
 
RIP Ella. My little Leghorn had just started laying last week - and was presenting us with 55-60 gram eggs every day since. This morning when I went to see how the girls fared through yet another rain storm last night, she was on the floor of the coop in total rigor. There was no evidence of any external culprit. Yesterday, she was fine - laid her egg around noon, was eating (including blueberries out of the hand) and drinking. I've lost hens before, but both times they were acting a bit "off" beforehand, so their deaths didn't come as a total shock like this one did.
Do a necropsy, it may tell you. I understand how much it hurts. -------------------- ------------------------ ---------------------- The MINNESOTA STATE FAIR was wonderful. I had to delete a lot of pictures, the chickens were not cooperating with me. I have done a quick edit and posted on YouTube. I can not call them up yet, I guess it will take time. I will post the video's as soon as I can. I was forced, via the Fair Afect to buy something I do not need. I resisted as long as I could, but I had to have them, a pair of muckes They have a little tab on the back to help kick them off. I can step right. Into them. :lol:

Unfortunately, I have neither the knowledge nor the stomach to do one! But it would be nice to know, just in case we're doing something wrong. Many years ago, we had an adult male ostrich keel over for "no apparent reason" - we had a necropsy done, and he had a brain tumor!
