    Help! Our fertilized eggs aren't edible

    I can tell you for sure that's not the case. I'm not a big fan of the cold and will not use air conditioning unless it's starting to feel hot in the house. And even with it warm in the house I've had them start while sitting out on the counter. Now I know they're not going to go all the way...

    What are your frugal and sustainable tips and tricks?

    I keep a spray bottle of peroxide. I will reuse cardboard cartons a few times. But I always open them up spray them good with peroxide and let them dry. If I have to wash my eggs I mist them with peroxide and let them dry afterwards before I put them in the fridge. If they're clean I mist/dry...

    I don't know how to do that. How can I link it? I don't want to have to write it all over again lol

    Mouse solution

    BTW I decided to try this because I do wildlife rehab. One of the squirrels I had went berserk when I used something with clove in it. She was furious she was agitated, not happy at all. Barking. Flicking her tail and jumping around. Luckily I had just spray it a little and she calmed down when...

    Mouse solution

    I just have to say getting some high quality clove oil was a godsend. I really doubted it. They obviously cannot stand that stuff. Be liberal with it. Put it all around where they come in, run it along sides and corners. Make sure they've got to go through it to get anywhere. I just used the...

    Enrofloxacin Powder 20% dose

    Okay, so I think I've got it figured out. And I found a 1/10 teaspoon measure on Amazon. By my calculations 1/10 tsp should be a daily dose for a 5lb chicken (split in half to give every 12 hours). Correct? Again, not using it now, just want to write it on the bag so I don't have to go down a...

    Baytril Powder 10% Dosing for Sick Chicken

    I'm trying to figure this out on the 20% right now! It's so frustrating! Why can't they just have this little plastic stick with divots in it were you just pack the product down and wipe the access off and that's the amount you give per pound!?

    Enrofloxacin Powder 20% dose

    Ok so I bought this to keep on hand. Not emergency at the moment, just trying to be prepared. Problem is dosing it in water is something I've never needed, waste of product. I prefer getting the right dose down the hatch no matter what animal I'm treating. I'd like to write it on the back of the...

    How do you sell eggs?

    Thanks! So far I just code mine with a 5-digit code first number being two last number being four because of the year. The three in between are the day of the year. I just do that because it's harder to read and I feel like if I put actual dates on there I'd have people picking off the top all...

    Horses

    Not replacing the twice a day feed and water person. But the personal care and grooming for the animal as well as making sure the water is clean fresh and full.

    Horses

    So I have a hypothetical question for you who have horses. Say you grew up with horses. And now you don't have any. But you have a neighbor who does. They were left the house property and pets (with a trust fund for the animals) they live out of state and spend a total of probably about 2 months...

    How do you sell eggs?

    Really!? That old!? I always thought it was like 2 weeks at the most! Holy crap!

    How do you sell eggs?

    Yes, usually I can fill a dozen within a day. But if not or I'm going for an 18 pack It's by the next day. So I date them from the day I started the carton. So 4 weeks is what you do? And you mark that on the carton?

    How do you sell eggs?

    Do you put expiration dates on them? If so, how does that work? I haven't yet, I just code when they're laid.

    How do you sell eggs?

    Definitely helps! We will be coming up on more volume in the next few months so just wanted some varied input on my operation. Seems since I started my project a year and a half ago now that I'm almost there I'm seeing fresh eggs signs popping up a good bit around me 🤦🏼‍♀️ not even sure how many...

    How do you sell eggs?

    Oh I absolutely know they can last for quite some time unwashed! Heck the ones at the grocery store are usually a couple weeks old before they hit the shelves. But I wasn't really sure if there's some rule unknown to me how freshly laid they should be when you're selling your own eggs. Like what...

    How do you sell eggs?

    So I'm curious. I sell eggs to my clients here and there on the side. It's never been a whole lot though due to the amount of hens that I have. But I hatched out some new ones and I will be getting a lot more eggs when they start laying. I do have roosters so the eggs would most likely be...

    Help with a Great Pyrenees

    The dog has been fine for 4 years. It's there. It's just there's something in the way. Consider the dog the way you consider the chickens and get right on it and you'll be so glad you did! Definitely reach out to someone familiar with LGDs! NOT what I would consider a lost cause 💗

    Help with a Great Pyrenees

    Spot on! 🎯 without you for discernment it's just a opportunistic carnivore with about the most alluring prey in existence in front of them 😜 no matter how much you try to genetically create an athlete if you sit them in front of video games all day don't be shocked if you don't get an athlete!

    Help with a Great Pyrenees

    There's absolutely a difference for them! They notice a distress call. It's whether it sends them into protection or mob mode. It's just not how it works for us. You do have to resign yourself to understanding to an extent what compels and motivates them is not human. Even though it's just as...
