    Cubalaya Thread For Sharing Pics and Discussing Our Birds

    Hey there. Yes, still serving the Lord, but now I am doing more of the logistics of helping younger more able body people go. I did get to go to Guyana for a month in 2019. I caught that virus thing that is going around before anyone knew what it was and came within inches of dying. I was...

    A simple solution. Throw dirty eggs away or break them and feed them back to the chickens. Problem solved! Simple Rules: 1. Unwashed eggs are safe up to 2 weeks without refrigeration. Much longer if refrigerated. 2. Washed eggs must be refrigerated immediately.

    Feed cost per pound to raise Cornish X broilers?

    Today marks exactly four weeks since I bought the CornishX chicks. The store said they were two weeks old when I bought them. I weighed some today. WOW! I was blown away. Most of them are over 7 pounds! One runt weighed in at 6.3 pounds. I would have never believe it was possible...

    Feed cost per pound to raise Cornish X broilers?

    OSB holds up quite well where I am at because it is so dry here. I have unpainted coops that are 12 years old the are still good. I plan to seal this coop though with elastometric roof coating. I am not familiar with the Salatin style. I kind of just built my own stuff by my own designs.

    The Ultimate Chicken Tractor!

    Currently, I have meat birds in it and they can barley walk, much less jump. They all go in the freezer tomorrow though and then I will put laying hens in there. I will put some roost and some of my double nesting boxes in the coop for them. Here is a video of how to build my custom double...

    The Ultimate Chicken Tractor!

    It is 8 feet by 10 feet. Ever mobile home comes with a set of those disposable axles. They are illegal to use for anything else, so you should be able to find some pretty cheap if not free. I would call a mobile home mover. My mover asked me if I wanted the axles off my home when he moved it...

    The Ultimate Chicken Tractor!

    Okay. So about a month ago, I was in farm store and they sold me 2 week old 50 Cornish X chicks for $20. I had always wanted to raise some meat birds on my land organically, and the opportunity knocked when I was no expecting it. So I set out to build a ground grazing box, so I could put the...

    Feed cost per pound to raise Cornish X broilers?

    Thanks. Not a bad Idea there. I have exausted all of my used lumber, so I'll have to buy some, if I want to do that. I built it all with used wood scavanged from other projects. I just had to by three sheets of OSB sheathing.
