Very true!

No one would fall off.......


I have been green lighted to get a few birds that will actually lay instead of brood all summer and take winter off.

That means I will be selling several birds to make room.

Now ....To Derp or not to Derp? That is the question!

Do it..I double dog dare you!

only you can answer that

Heeey now! Iv'e done some stuff but nothing that would lead people down that path of thought....well maybe halfway down it.

So my chickens have bugs!!!! What the Pat Crow!!! I caught it early cause only one bird had signs of eggs. But about half of them that I checked had little creepy crawlies running around.
Of course it’s 20* and I can’t get them wet. So I’m going to try and powder them and cross my fingers. I may try a little Elector PSP on the worst ones but that will have to wait till Monday. With a high of 39*. Look out it’s a heat wave!

39F would feel like Sanibel Island to me now.

So sorry to hear that

I had one totally infested, bought the stuff to treat and then checked close to 50 birds with no creepy crawly's. Really confused...

I have used the poultry dusting powder with success. Nasty bugs need to get gone.

I have one bird that has always been weaker then the rest. She has had the crawlies a few times while everyone else is clear.

Ugh ya'll are making me itch! You'd think the bugs would go on winter vacation or something.

Well duct tape on the entire roost seems to be the trick. Put Sallie up there and she spread out, flopped to the side propped up on a wing. Ethel and Dutch are none too happy about that the little bit of extra room is gone.
