was that at TSC? they had it for $12.99

Yes it was at TSC. We have been getting our feed at a grain mill in Leslie, but my wife happen to be near town so she stopped in at TSC. I think the last time we picked up feed it was over $15 a bag.

What do you mean by split hatches? I am new to raising chickens, just recieved our first delivery of 5 Hew Hampshire Red Pullets and am considering getting some more already. I am just wondering if it is ok to integrate chicks of varying ages into the same brooder. Any information on this would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome, I have one NH she is beautiful, and very broody, you can mix chicks if they are close in age, maybe 2 weeks at most, so the young ones don't pick on the olders. if you get them from the same place, is best, ...they are so sweet,

Well while Silly is out in fruit, nuts, and flakes land enjoying the scenic drive (LOL), we are getting more snow. New England is getting hammered again. I leave next Wednesday to Boston for my Dad's heart surgery. Come on warm weather!

good luck with your trip to Boston, are you driving or flying? prayers for your dad,for a successful surgery and quick recovery

Prayers for your Dad's surgery and for a safe trip to and from Boston. Hopefully they will have been able to clean up some from the additional snow they are to recieve this weekend.

Jules anybody want a pitbull puppy? We are fostering three of them

they sound so sweet, but no more puppys, here, mine is about 100lbs at 1 1/2

I get my layer mash at the feed mill in carson city for 11 and some change and a hundred lbs corn for 12 scratch is 8 something

I am thinking of trying the mill in Lowell, don't know if they sell to any one off the street, the mill I used to get it from went out


cute puppy,

recalls on 4health?? were do you find out about recalls? I never hear about them.

 

[snowflake]

trefoil, is that the new pet food? I think even Meijers sells it. if they eat less, I may try it. 4 health isn't cheep. but $50, for 28lb, is a lot.still if it lasts for about the same time it is only about $15 more

That's all. I am doing a layover in france this sumer have some friends there I am going to have them track downs some fbcm yeah boy....

well importing to the united states requires a whole lot more process as it goes thru customs...and the bird you bring over is going to cost you thousands...just keep this in mind...i believe when certain people brought the cemani over they were well above ten thousand...i believe dont quote me on this...just what certain cemani breeders have stated

Where do you get the earthborn?


Did you import the cerami's (sp)? How many are you getting? How are the pied peas doing?

i will be importing them from one state to this state...not from out of the country as you cannot with the current ban....the paperwork will be at the breeders house next week sometime....and then we are going from there...as for the pies...they are doing great i dont ever seem them on the roost which is weird..to me

That's awesome, how much would you sell fertile eggs for?

all my birds are a mix....the green/blue eggs you will have a 66 percent chance of getting an ee...however i do have a barred rock in with them as well....how many eggs would you like...you can take them for 3 bucks a dozen...just pay for all the materials being used and the shipping...

Baby it's ccccooooollllllldddddd outside!

 

[mindylee]

What kind of chicken is that, I have never seen one quite like it before!

He is my newest silkie rooster. He is a splash paint in color. And his coloring is evej better in person vrs this pic. He molted since this pic which i bought him from. So when i opened the shipping box and saw the more intensified coloring, i thought i got a diff rooster then what i got from his pic. But once i picked him up out of the box and saw his pure white beard, i knew it was him no doubt. And he was even better looking upon arrival. I love him and hes the best looking boy i have and super happy to have got him!!!


On another note:::::::

TSC in lapeer (where i work), just got its 1st time ever 100% organic chicken feed in. Now i dont believe in this and can care less as im a dumor fan, but for you folks out there who do, ya now can pick this up at ur favorite store! Unfortunately it is pricey, but if you like organic, its available!!!

 

[myfarm4579]

Yeah I see tsc in petoskey also just got organic feed in. But I didn't look at price.
