Chickens aren’t eating their layer feed
You've probably already checked it, but....one additional question that came to my mind. What is the mill date of the feed? I ask because when I went to pick up a bag of feed at TSC in October they had bags with mill dates back in February.- TheDandyLion

Fun, white morning. Discussion with my barred rock: Me: *opens pop door* BR: *runs to door, looks out, looks inside, looks back out* *screams* "What is this???? *continues screaming* "Get rid of it!" ME: *brushes snow from ramp* BR: *runs down ramp and into covered area* *clucking* "About...- TheDandyLion

I'm grumbling....widespread frost and freezing temps are in the forecast for southern lower Michigan for Wednesday night. I know its that time of year, but it always feels too soon.- TheDandyLion

How did your garlic do this year Sally, I believe you tried a couple of new varieties right? I planted Musik, purple glazer and german reds, the latter two were new to me to try. I think of those the musiks still are my favorite. The other two had good flavor, but the bulbs and cloves were...- TheDandyLion

I don't know how bad the drought has been in the UP, but down here, all of my trees are dropping leaves early. No pretty colors just leaf drop.- TheDandyLion

They will freeze. A tiny bit of water seems to get stuck between the nipple and the red plastic part outside and it will freeze once it gets really frigid. It doesn't take much to thaw that one ice drop and have it working again though. I've never really had them freeze up much more than...- TheDandyLion

Oh laugh all you want, I was. I had no problem locating her in the yard that day. Just had to follow the trail :lol: Wasn't nearly as dramatic today. Just oh 5 or 6 here and there, and 40-50 where she had a bath, similar amount on the coop this morning and whereever she sat in the run...- TheDandyLion

My buff orp is officially molting. A month earlier than last year. But a few hundred buff feathers floating about today. Of course if you looked at her, you could not tell where they are coming from yet. Last year in early October, she had a "power" molt. Came out to free range, got about...- TheDandyLion

Rabbit, deer, I have never found a "wild" seedling near mine. Always assumed one of those two eat them. You ever try to propagate them? I found them tough to propagate via seed. But I don't think I properly scarified them before stratification and only tried once. You should also be able...- TheDandyLion

What did you do in the garden today?
Mine too. I planted music, German reds and purple glazer last fall. I believe metechi's are a type of purple. I harvested scapes from the musics today. The purples are starting to grow scapes and the reds are the smallest of the 3 types so far. Its been interesting so far to see the definite...- TheDandyLion

I don't usually get involved in this type of conversation but man I miss aart. I loved her posts to help me build my coop 2 years ago. I looked up her post for her art. She had a link to a Facebook page called Everlasting Leaves. She ran an Etsy in the early 2010s, listing she was from...- TheDandyLion

If you are near Leslie, Jackson Farms Feed & Seed has Buckeyes from Mt Healthy on order for June 11 hatch. No idea if she has any left available as she takes pre-orders.- TheDandyLion

Maybe there is hope then. She actually looks in better condition than last year. Her tail feathers last year were more frizzled than this year. She looks fuller and has a very nice color and shiny. Her comb is pale and not plump. But I do need to grab her and check her vent again. Its been...- TheDandyLion
