To the title: When you can no longer access your chickens 😅
To the body of the post:
We have found 2x4 4ft welded wire "No climb" fence with metal t-posts every 8 ft to be sufficient for our chicken yards.
It's less pricey which helps us give them a big yard.
During the day, when chickens can...
With them already very sick you are far better off getting some tolturazil. I believe it's easier for Canadians to get online (?). But your vet could certainly prescribe it.
When they are already very sick they can go downhill fast. One thing I learned the hard way is that when they sit with...
Shade! (to the title)
To the body of the post... still would choose shade, always.
Whether the chickens pose any danger to the tree from exposed roots depends on the age and type of tree.
We have old Live Oaks with some exposed roots, it's a very hard wood and the chickens like to use them...
I'm going to risk being a pest and tag @U_Stormcrow because I know he's talked about organs in dissection and has read more poultry studies than most of us could contemplate. But it may be a little bit before he has time to reply.
For me, I would like to know how to evaluate chickens for...
I live where many Florida-Man can be found, so YES it should totally be a thing! LOL
Last year we got some safe yard fireworks including flaming swords that were very fun to wave around, but too short lived. They need to perfect those things. So much better than sending fire into the air that...
Since the rest has been answered I'll just respond to this part...
I've had better experiences (3) from private breeders.
One was a box of chicks sent from a member here, with Ameraucana and Genetic Hackle chicks. All arrived very perky and grew into good examples of their breed.
Another time...
How inconsiderate could they be?!
What's a ghetto bird?
It was pouring rain all evening here... but still somehow the new downtown fireworks were going off until 10:45. It's not actually that far away from here so the booming was fairly intense... my mom asked "Are we sure that's not bombs?"...
I only drink spring water... Zephyrhills to be specific... it comes from a deep aquifer.
Once water has been evaporated into clouds, that's distillation which removes everything that's not a water molecule. Therefore rain is safe, although not very yummy without the minerals.
And once rain...
Let's settle this once and for all! I challenge you to a broccoli fight!
First little bitter tree thing to get obliterated loses.
Fishes drink their poo water... and human poo water... shark poo, whale poo, blobby little ocean floor critter poo...
Ewww...
I haven't tried it, but I don't have to, sometimes you just know something is yicky.
Like fish, broccoli, escargot, mixed produce "smoothies", sugar-free beverages, prunes, sauerkraut, spore-filled fungus sponges, various oozing lumpy mixes termed "salads" that really aren't, desserts...
Humans come along thinking Gods design has no purpose :rolleyes:
I would be worried about dust and particles causing issues down the road. If the nostrils were supposed to be open the natural coverings wouldn't exist.
Most likely, the people that do this are using it to mark culls for sale, so...
The questions had absolutely nothing to do with the results?
I was surprised with how inappropriate it was. But anyway, I got Mansplainer, not a surprise.
Probably only one of the questions led to the answer, and the others were a distraction. A rude, indecipherable distraction... what gens...
To some extent, yes early weight indicates final weight.
However, in practice it can be hampered by personalities.
Assertive birds get more to eat, docile birds get less. My bigger (final) birds have often been the more docile ones. Slimmer cockerels tend to mature faster, in my experience...
Hi Amy,
Elanco (makers of Elector PSP) say opened product lasts for 3 years, if properly stored.
The most essential thing is to protect it from light exposure.
The purpose of the dark green bottles is to avoid UV exposure during use. It should also be stored in a dark cabinet at normal room...
