My hens think its spring and as a result I have several very young clutches of American Game chicks roaming the yard with their mothers. Quite simpley I don't want to try and winter such young chicks! If you want them and are fast enough to catch them they are free! If you want them but want me...

anyone here breed saint pigeons? I used to have some but sold out when I went to college and would like to get ahold of people breeding them so I can get some of them again in the future. I prefer colored not splash or white and with muffs 2" or longer.

kind of a spinoff of Southern 101 thread - let's hear words that until you visited a specific place you'd never heard of, and once they learned you had no idea what they were talking about they knew you weren't from there. In my case one word is "wonky". When I moved to Minnesota for college I...
