She has laid every single day since we took her home. I could not believe it! I have a few girls who, even if they THINK you are having an attitude problem with them, will clamp their little hieney's shut and make me wait
She is just so sweet and cooperative. I cannot thank you enough for her!
the Purina thing...If you would like I could give you our reps contact info if you have questions. Or if there is a Purina dealer closer to you then you can ask them to put you in touch with your areas rep. They loooooooove to talk and answer questions. Most time it's a good thing
Until then I think they have a few web sites with some info on them. I don't know what you are looking for (and to be honest I have never been on one
) It amazes me how PICKY chickens can be. I wonder if they are naturally that way or maybe we spoil them, even if ever so mildly?
Yeah, I'm an idiot, traveling a half hour to get them the food they like when the Purina people are less than 10 minutes from my house. However, I'd like to have them on a slightly higher protein, but I can't get it from the Agway. The Purina guy will order me anything I want, but I'm not sure what to ask for. I'll check out the websites - I'm sure they have customer service.
I'm so glad Jane is laying for you -that means she's not too stressed - good! She does have some fancy pants, though, don't she? Never saw pants like that on a bird. Too bad the rest of her looks like big bird, poor thing!
I'll be bringing the same birds you saw to a mini-seminar I'm giving at the Howell Library this Saturday - I'm a little nervous, but I'm sure you could tell I don't mind talking about chickens! I'll have to make notes to keep myself on track. If there's anything I've learned about chickens after having them, it's that I have SO much more to learn! Wish me luck!
