I LOVE that first crow a baby roo makes! That ooh-oooooh! Just call him Sal. Give it an Italian accent. That's very manly.

I love their "practice" crows too - sounds like New Year's Eve party favors to me.

The Cochins are something else. Feathers deluxe. Seeing that white one bounding away was quite a sight. Like a goose down tumbleweed. LOL

Perfect weather today for the chickens : ) John made a video when we got home from church. This was the first time he'd seen the chickens eat fermented grain. There's a link to the video below.

I've been feeding mine fermented grain for 2 years and they LOVE it.

Awesome! I used to soak oats in ice water in the summer and feed that to them when it was hot. If it sat for a few days it smelled pretty bad so it had probably fermented. How long do you leave it sit? Do you use a variety of grains?

Going to see Willie Nelson with the parents on Nov 22. I didn't realize tickets were so cheap. I would have bought them a long time ago to get better seats.

Well I am going to see Martina next Saturday night!!!!

Quote: i use either a dremel or fingernail clippers on mine, and only a little at a time- flour works to stop bleeding

i have one that the bottom beak goes straight to the side, most severe beak i have ever seen- she can only eat crumble mash

Very cool! Yes please share your method. I've read a little on it in the past but it seemed complicated- having to store it just so and rinse it, etc. Yours looks very simple.
