Granny, its easy. Boil 2 leg quarters. Debone. Add leftover veggies or cans of veggies. Bring to a boil & serve.

I think I need to worm my chickens. Several I've picked up have felt thin around the keel, and I've seen some foamy yellow poops. The thin ones have also been youngish or juvies, so maybe it's just age. Guess I'll check them all tonight.

Are u going to use pumpkin seeds to worm them, Camping?

This treatment is a 3 day process. You will need fresh pumpkins, buttermilk, bran, regular milk


Day 1 remove all feed (leaving water) by noon so that chickens have nothing to eat and must fast (they will not be happy about this)


Day 2 Cut pumpkin like you are making a jack-o-lantern and scoop out all of the seeds (it is fine to have the stringy stuff as well. put in a blender with buttermilk and blend at high speed so that it becomes a wet mash of pulverized seeds and buttermilk.

feed this as the only feed after a day of fasting to all chickens (make sure there is enough for them all to fill up on it during the day) they will love it ad just might forgive you for starving them the day before.


Day 3 Now make a mash of bran flakes and regular milk (again I use raw cows milk since that's what we drink, and you should too smile ) make sure they have enough of this all day as well.

Feed this mash to the birds and stay away from their rear end as there will be some wet yucky poo happening now.

Day 4 back to regular feed as usual with some DE and ACV in water ETA real yogurt as well will put back the good bacteria smile although if you use raw milk it will be in there as well.

Before I forget to ask (again) - is anyone doing a master list for the addresses this year for the card exchange? 

Yes Linda louly

Yeah I understand the underwriting by some group but why a winery?

That is so cool. Yeah for the winery. I just checked into getting these feral cats done. 40 bucks apiece. Wow. Momma cat and her three kittens just showed up. The kittens are long hair. That won't be good.

I mean this in the nicest way possible, I do , but are there any studies that show this as an effctive treatment?
