Should i supply my 5 cornish cross im raising this spring with a dust bath? Please let me know! :)

Opinion on freedom rangers?

Okay great. It will be straight run. Trying to decide if i should do freedom rangers instead

I think it was straight run but i should be able to confirm that tomorrow. Hopefully they will be bought at fair and the new owners will be in charge of butcher, otherwise, i will have to sell them locally online, i wont be processing them myself.

I dont have that much flat pasture for the coop as most is sloped. I plan on buying one of those used tractor supply coops and dragging it across the flat area which is about 20' by 20' total. I plan on getting 5-6 cornish broilers, keeping it a super small batch. Any organic food brands you...

Ill have to buy everything new, as i dont have supplies (i dont have my layer chickens anymore) So pretty much everything from coop to food. Im honestly not sure on breed but i can update when i find out next week. All i know is we will be buying the chicks from the fair itself

Hi! I'll be raising 5 cornish broiler chicks for fair in around april for the first time. Ive raised chickens for eggs but never meat and never with cornish. Any tips for lowering cost? Or making cornish best for showing at fair? Any input is appreciated.

My black frizzle cochin rooster (turned out to be plain feathered) from Meyer hatchery was the most friendly, gentle rooster I've ever seen. He loved to be held and was polite and friendly to his standard sized ladies. I would totally go for bantam cochins!

These were pictures i found with similar breeds (first welsummer x white silkie) and (second barnevelder and buff silkie). they look seriously so cute. I would do it if I could :love

This bird flu is horrible! :barnie

Hey, was wondering if there were any poultry shows coming up I could participate in. I am new to poultry showing and want to start for fun. I am in the King County area, so looking to avoid anywhere farther than 3hrs. Thanks! :)

I was just wondering why my hens had such pale and droopy combs while they were molting!

:welcome:thumbsup Welcome!

Looks like a pullet so far
