@aart Is it better to make a duel purpose garden shed coop or a moveable one to clean the garden and raise meaties? I'll be running a fence around the garden, but can't decide how to solve this one. Advantages to both.
Have never raised meaties, but would keep them separate from the layers...mobile coop would be good for meaties if possible.
 
Yes, meaties separate. Now about the working girls...

How hard is it to change the birds' coop? If I build another coop, let's call it the "clean out the garden winter retreat country estate" and then come spring I'd want them to return to the "Summer in the city, back of my neck is hot and gritty, townhouse"?

If I could magically transport them to the work site and return to the coop in the evenings, I have no idea where the eggs would show up.

If I get rid of the dogs, the divorce would cost a lot, but if I lived...

Garden coop in winter, then main coop in summer?
It could be done, they'd not care much for the changes but would get used to it fairly quick, might lose some production.

Or.....you want the layers at the 'work site' during the day,
then take them back to the main coop at night?
You'd need to provide nests at 'work site'.
Moving them back and forth every day would get to be a PITA pretty quick.
 
A Thug's life!

Chowder hit me from behind again today. Now he thinks he is a victim. How do you like the tail hairdo I gave him?

Did you have your first poopy butt? :lol:

Or just whacked the sickle feathers?

I thought you were going to make him into victim soup after the last talking to? Let us know how the ankle bracelets work out.

Pretty colors on the feathers.
 
Nope my wife has threatened divorce if I do. I am unwilling to test her resolve in the matter. Whacked the sickles just to be able to see who is the troublemaker from the corner of my eye.

The ankle bracelett is working great except he is too stupid to seek shade today when it is warm out so is heat stressing himself.

Lol Sumatra are beautiful birds! No sh#t thats is why I keep them I want jealous neighbors!
 
LOL. Not wishing you ill, what happens if another attacks and you find they were taking turns?

Did you hear the one about the donkey?

Short form. Man gets married. FIL presents him with donkey as gift. New couple hitch up donkey to wagon. Man says "giddyup". Donkey does nothing. Man goes eye to eye and says "that is one."

Mounts up gets to bridge. Donkey stops and refuses to budge. Man dismounts, goes eye to eye and says, "that's two." Remounts and drives to front gate.

Donkey stops and refuses to budge. Man dismounts, goes eye to eye and says, "that's three." Pulls out his pistol and kills the donkey.

New bride says, "Why did you do that?!?"
Man looks at new bride and says, "that's one."

I find jealous neighbors aren't worth the effort sometimes. :D
 
How about the body is fighting itself, the brain, heart, intestines are all fighting. The brain says I am in charge I make you all function, the heart says I pump the blood that feeds you! The intestines say I feed you all, the asshole say's well F8ck you all I am going on strike! After several days.... The brain has a horrid headache! The Intenstines are painful and bloated, and the blood the heart pumps is poison....

Eventually guess who they put in charge?
 
I thought we were talking marriage, not politics???

My dear, beloved bride was previously married so I was concerned. We sat down and I told her that I did not believe in divorce and committing to marriage, like an insane asylum, is a lifelong commitment.

She agreed and assured me.

I then explained that while divorce was not an option, I did believe in murder.

She assured me that I wouldn't see it coming.

We got married 2 weeks later.

**true story**

Now, back to chickens, when will the chowder be ready?
 
Chowder himself is ready. My wife isn't ready to see me with a knife over his corpse. I think I can leave him at the corner store on a tie-out and he will be gone within a few hours. I'm getting shot down worse than the Nazi's in 1944.

I definately want him gone but the beloved wife wants to give him his fifth last chance. Boggles the mind.
