I was wondering if I could join this thread. I am from East Tn but I can not find an active thread for East Tn.

Oh course you can

Lol... I actually moved to this area from middle TN a year ago. We now have chickens, ducks, and goats. Thank you everyone for letting me join this thread.

We had to go to TSC today to get feed for the chickens and found that great deal on suet! No, it's not for wild birds! It's for my chickens!

Suet is an excellent source of Protein and if you are trying to plump up your birds for poultry shows suet is a perfect treat for them!

Mine love the peanut butter suet blocks but I also got them a meal worm suet block for them to try!

I don't know of anyone with SLW, well I have them but in the 2 years I have had them I could never fill that order. I am lucky to just replace my flock.

What is the latest I could have new chicks and still put them outside before winter hits? I have had the worst luck with getting cockerels around here. I'm still trying to build up breeding stock. I would really like to have pullets old enough to breed next year, but not at this rate. Between having to sell off cockerels down to the best and relegating several pullets to the egg layer pen, I'm going to need some new babies around here.
