Hatching Eggs / Paypal CHAT Thread

does anyone feed just spent grain with added vits to their flocks? haven't found much info on it but I have some in the deep freeze and want to make sure my flocks are getting enough nutrition. I've been feeding this mix to My flock with scraps and freeze ranging twice a week and they seem much happier and healthier, just want to get the yalls opinions

I know this was a ways back but Spent Grains as the WHOLE diet would be to hard on chickens. The protein is too high, like 30-35% and will cause kidney problems. They need more than what is in the spent grains too.

I have a question...I hatched a batch of marans all my varieties....bcm,blue pen,blue roo covers blue girls, splash pen bcm over the splash girls....makes only blue babies. I hatch 36 maran eggs...well that's what went into the hatcher at lockdown. So far only five eggs haven't hatched..so I am waiting. So far out of these babies. Three are silver....like lavender...super light silvery color...not like splash...I have some of those too. Has anyone seen this? Is this like a self- blue? If so will they feather out like a lav am? Tose are considered self blue for showing...that's what Cindy said...she just told me if I wanted to show show the lavs under self blue.....I HAVE to know what color these gorgeous shimmering silver babies will be..??? Thanks ya'll

The boys accidentally broke our piece of crap table yesterday and I couldn't fix it, since it had been fixed before and no new holes could be drilled. G said it was simple, got the drill and fixed the table, except that he screwed it right into the floor. God love men.

If they are not laying they will be soon.... so many new breeds and varieties coming

in a good way maybe. I think I will have to build the coops and pens by my self

pretty sure that would put me over the shipping weight limits! ha ha, the roo alone would probably break the box. somewhere in those who knows how many dozen eggs coming your way over the next month or so you will find many LC eggs.
