All she had left was a mini pig and someone's supposed to come pick it up this weekend or I would have taken it :-( but on up side I bought a new incubator today so I can hatch more eggs bought a electric fence those pesky neighborhood dogs will get a surprise when the try to dig at my fences again I paid full price for every thing at tsc I do have to go into town and pick up a grounding rod tmrw would be nice if a electric fence had a list of everything you need on outside of box

grounding rod. any metal pipe or bar about 3 feet long or more, you can drive into the ground. no need to pay $75+ for a copper rod.

Ya'll are lucky geographically as far as being able to get animals easier. I have a hard time finding things within 30 minutes of me, with the exception of the saturday market... but last time most the people didn't know what animals they had (breeds). I asked what type of rabbits... its a rabbit, a nice one. Smh...

If you guys are on facebook there are several group such as back yard meat rabbits, pure breed poultry and livestock and some Arkansas groups like Arkansas poultry livestock and farm supply swap amoung others.

Can you provide some links. I tried a search on facebook for the meat rabbits and didn't find it.

 

[rayray983]

got home tonight and had a silkie and a polish hatched I got them in a heated 10 gallon aquarium so the other eggs can have peace for the next few day to hatch

The coming warm weather has us thinking about starting up the incubators. Guess we'll be setting up the breeding pens this weekend Going to hatch blue, silver laced, gold laced, and barred wyandottes, plus a few barred rocks to add to my laying flock. Can't wait to hear the "peep, peep" of new chicks!
