What, the pine beetle hasn't wiped everything out yet? :/  It's 5ºC and sunny today! My chickens are loving it

Where in Ontario are you? I am in southern Ontario

Hi
We live in Ontario and are getting our first dozen "ready to lay" birds at the end of March.
We will probably have a lot of questions and hope this forum will help out.

Cheers

Hey people from Ontario
I have 2 mating pairs of Muscovies I am looking to rehome I have too many males! I will give them to a good home for free!

Hello!! Is your offer still standing? We're new to BYC but have had chickens for the past 4 years and wanting to venture into ducks! Thanks

Yes, I am very excited for them! They are stunning looking too! Who did you get your from!

I'm getting from Breezy Birds, and from Briarwood in BC. I want to see what kind of chickens they are from each of those lines!

And since I'm lucky enough to read German, I'm going to try to breed to the European standard. Try being the operative word...

Hello, we're an hour west of Toronto and looking for pullets that haven't been debeaked. Alternatively, we're thinking of getting some chicks from Performance Poultry. let me know if anyone wants to arrange for a joint pick-up since they don't deliver within the province.

Don't forget our Canadian breed - Chantecler

Agreed! We're in Ontario (1hr west of Toronto) and looking to start our flock again with Chanteclers. Any tips for sourcing chicks or pullets?

Well over on the island here, we've got some more snow

It seems every weekend we get our stuff together to finish setting up the greenhouse and hoop house, it snows!

Where has our winter rains gone to...? I'm tired of this white stuff that keeps coming, and so are the chickens!
