@Chickielady they did eat all the pumpkin and where happy critters
the next day continuing to consume them... We have 5 for carving three
I will cook down for the freezer the other 2 the chickens can have..
even happier to have shavings and a dry coop

they will eat every bit, but seeds first, and the seeds will kill the worms in the intestines.
Often you can go look at dropping the next morning & see dead worms that have been paralyzed & pooped out of the birds at night.

Well, that's cool! I have a lot of pumpkins. I am going to try this.

And our little lame chicken I now whole and happy to be back with her flock. I wish I had taken a few pictures of that silly pullet falling asleep in the epsom salt bath we gave her for that inital first few weeks.

Never thought I would have to give a chicken PT but Bitey appreciated it. Now she is back with her peeps and walking like she was never lame.

I am really happy she is doing well back with the flock

Hey everyone! New to the group, and to Washington (Poulsbo/Silverdale area). We are looking at possibly getting some chickens again, but I'm unable to find really any information on the laws regarding backyard chickens here. We are North Kitsap County, Poulsbo, but not within city limits. We have a 10k sqft lot within a neighborhood, no HOA.

Could anyone point me in the direction of finding out the laws?

Thanks! I'll have to look around because I am apparently not finding the information. I see noise complaints, but nothing about actually owning chickens. Thanks for the start in the right direction!
