    Dear chicken lovers...

    Hope y'all are having a wonderful day, and it stays that way. Here's my "get to know me" info, to look at when I become chicken famous. Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? Well, my parents got our first generation of chickens when I was in 5th grade, I believe. (2)...

    Feral cats

    Hello. The last couple weeks I have spotted a lone cat wondering around our property. I have kept my chickens locked up but my ducks wander around during the day. I was wondering if I have to worry about this cat. My 4 Ancona ducks are always together and quack at everything that moves. My dog...
