For anyone interested...Rural King in Clearfield is selling their chicks for 50 cents!!!! They have them ranging in age from a couple of days to a couple weeks. Barred Rock, Wyandottes, leg horns, amberlinks, easter eggers, Jersey Giants, australorp and maybe a couple other kinds. They had ALOT left

Well today was interesting. While she was off nest I counted them. 12. But one wasn't one of the originals. It was not marked. I labeled and marked them all. She's not a small bird, she's the buff Orp. I don't know who laid the new one, but I think it is Bridget. She has very thin eggshells compared to the others so we'll see how this works.

Dennis, thanks for the offer, but I really don't need the extra birds. I may get rid of the roosters entirely and just keep hens. It's just a small backyard anyway.

I will have to clip their wings. The Fiends have figured out how to get over the fence.

Guess I should pick TSC tomorrow then. Thanks for the warning!

I was viciously attacked by a PVC pipe. I have no ice packs. This worked! A few more, and a prayer that I don't get a black eye (or a hangover...) and I should be good!

Ouch!! Hope your improvised cold pack works!

Thanks. Me too! It really hurts. More now than two hours ago!

Does anyone know of anyone that breeds pigeons in the western pa region?

Try these ads...but I don't know anyone personally who does.

I think they're the reason that nobody has had much interest in chicks around here this year :/ turkey poults were easy to sell but everyone wanted dirt cheap chicks. Except for a few people who know the difference between hatchery and breeder chicks.

LB:

I had a marans go broody last year, I gave her x4, she ended up with eight...and I had to go in each night to remove the extras....its been my experience that the Roos will keep the ladys local....I had many 'jail breaks' before the roos and only a couple of roadtrips since....and that was because the roo was too young ....my two cents....
