Anyone still needing to stock up your medicine kits or order Vaccines, Jeffer's 10% off sale ends tonight. Just type in the words "easter13" in the coupon slot and get 10% off any order over $60. I ordered the vaccines for our dogs, NuStock, VetRx, Tylan and a few other items for the poultry and rabbits. By the way, 4 litters of bunnies born yesterday, too!

Celie, what kind of rabbits do you raise? I may be interested in some.

chickenbelle, I'm going to ask a dumb question here.......... Could the duck be wearing the earring?

Oh gosh, I couldn't resist that.

Hmmm...I think we'd have noticed an almost half inch diameter diamond looking stud by now. Nope...not wearing it. LOL

As much as ducks poo you'd think I'd have seen it by now!

Julie, your animals are a hoot! If I had that many natural incubators i wouldn't worry about the mechanical ones.

I hatched my 1st sebbie gosling of the year today. I have 6 more eggs that will go in lockdown on Wednesday.

I am totally waiting on some sebbie goslings.... hint hint...

Hi, Everyone! Happy Easter and April Fool's Day! I've been out for a couple of days repurposing an old chicken run. Welcome to all the new thread chicken lovers.

I did my very first building project. I am going to post a foto, but it is so very humble next to the beautiful things you guys do. I repurposed a chicken run that I got to attach to my chicken coop, but it was too small, so it was just hanging out rotting in the yard. I decided to make a rabbit cage because the one I got for the rabbits was SO very much too small. I could hear Julie in my ear throughout the 2 days saying to repurpose, recycle and reuse, and I did a little of all three on this little project. The run didn't have a bottom or back. I am really excited because I have always wanted to build something. I am going to build a roof, but for now I'm using a tarp. I am also going to paint it and put sides around the bottom with one side removable and throw some of those Mrs. Magoo red wigglers in there protected from the chickens. Then open it up now and then and pull out the great stuff for my plants. That's a little kid chair in the foto. It makes the cage look bigger than it is. LOL BTW, it is VERY sturdy.

I planted 2 blueberries, 2 blackberries, 2 grape, and 1 fig. Already have a satsuma developing flowers. I'll also put in some veggies.

julie, congrats on repurposing, reusing and recycling your brooders. LOL But where's the broody dog foto?

Finally got my silkies!!! I called Joe from Bayou State Hatchery in Pontchatoula, and he called me as soon as he had some available. I got one partridge and one grey. He's got a great, super clean setup with turkeys, quails, and chickens available.

Are you really wanting sebbies? I have about 20+ eggs developing in my incubator and I have 10 geese still laying eggs. I hope to hatch quite a few and should have some to sell later this spring.

Would anyone close to Lafayette want to trade fertilized welsummer eggs for a few Guinea keets?

Cute little babies!
