Chickens for 10-20 years or more? Pull up a rockin' chair and lay some wisdom on us!

You can't see it or hear it, but inside sky rockets are going off in my heart...and there isn't one single emoticon on the web that can show that.

Between his birds and kathys birds you have some fencing to do....

It would seem that way, wouldn't it?

I'm flexible that way.

Questions for the OT's: Should I be concerned about the mushrooms growing in my yard? We live in So. Cal, and had a few rare days of rain. We have a thick layer of compost and mulch in our garden, and I noticed that there were some mushrooms growing. I picked what I saw and threw them in the trash. Do I need to be cautious, or will the hens stay clear from these? Thanks!

No worries...they know what they can and cannot eat, despite what you may hear. Never had a chicken eat anything in all these years that made them sicken or die.

One of my best WR's I have ever raised and bred he was IMO a perfect example of the Heritage WR SOP.

I think the last 10 pages or so were some of the best on the thread so far, regarding breeding for Utility.
