Re: Hello Fall
Some pics from today's pumpkin carving art work done by our chickens. The first pic was taken at 8:03am, the second at 11:55am, the third at 2:46 pm and the last at 10:01 pm. All I did was scrape the skin off a bit in a flower design, just to get them started. I think I will do another one and this ...

Re: Good Morning - 2023
I've heard good things about the Azures from Frey's. Apparently they are quite hardy. I didn't know they were early layers, but now I do - thanks Tom!

Adjustable poultry leg bands
I have had these adjustable plastic leg bands sitting around for awhile now and finally getting around to seeing whether someone else may be interested in them, because they don't work for their intended purpose here.

Re: Mealworms and birds
Yes I have been doing that. I actual purchased wheat bran for their substrate. I had read that it is easier to run through a sieve to change bedding and separate eggs. No idea-i'm winging it lol. I started with 3000 mealworms and 1000 beetles. I've had a lot of beetle die off so not sure what that'...
