" imagine dropping dead in the chicken coop.
That might be an answer to the rising costs of funeral expenses.

I tell my husband to dump my ashes in the coop that way when they dust bath I can still help keep them free of pests. well except for me of course.

Almost anything, ours will not eat banana peels. But as far as meat goes, any and all meat is good stuff, moving or cooked don't matter.

Mine will eat anything except banana peels to. I've even caught them chowing down on a mouse twice, and a snake once.

My Chickens love baby snakes in the spring!

Cool!
Mine enjoy frogs, it's funny to watch one of them catch one and then the rest of them chase after her. LOL

to Cubby!!



Mine eat all sorts of goodies...but are a big buncha chickens if I give them a live crawfish.

I found 2 in the yard so far. They will look at it sideways...tiptoe up to peck at it...then run off. Silly birds. Hate to see a waste in good protein.
