    It's been a very rough first year with chickens. Anyone else?

    Exactly true! I'm in CT with the four seasons and each incoming season has me thinking of duties required to help the chickens thrive. It's summer now so fans are set up, dishes for cold treats and freezing water. Dehydrator set up for harvested herbs and veggies to store for winter. Chicken...

    Feeding 100% organic without going broke?

    Thats a great idea. I asked my local feed store (Lock Stock and barrel), but they only deal with their vendors and S&P is not one of them. I do purchase the S&P 3 grain scratch tho! 🤷‍♀️🐓

    It's been a very rough first year with chickens. Anyone else?

    Exactly! I have dug 2 trenches. One this spring after we had floods wash out the neighbors entire foundation! I live at the bottom of a mountain. I have four seasons and each season has specific duties to help the chickens thrive 💕🙂

    cockerel aggressive to flock mates

    I have a male 15weeks. He has his own coop within the coop. He does a look but don't touch. It's going okay but when they free range, he always goes after 1 golden buff that is partially disabled. Could I keep him seperated forever? Thank you

    Feeding 100% organic without going broke?

    $90 is the price......I wish I could afford the S&P! Currently looking for a 'perfect' All Flock feed. Coming up short. I have my youngens and young boy on a grower feed.

    is it safe

    I kept my 5 hens on chick starter for their first 2.5 years of their lives. I wish I never started switching feed to textured and All flock and even grower. Now I'm all mixed up with layers/babies/and a rooster! I have no idea what to feed! I tend to go without corn and soy during summer. Not...
