    Trans chicken?

    Sounds to me like she has a reproductive issue going on. This sometimes happens, especially in older hens. Just keep an eye on her but there's likely no cure for whatever is going on

    Steak

    Even so, I will still cook it until it's well done. I'm taking no chances with a parasite that deadly

    Chicken found dead, no obvious cause, new chicken owner, advice appreciated

    Way too much, treats and extras should be less than 10% of their diet, especially scratch, if you want an alternative to scratch kalmbach henhouse reserve is a whole grain mash layer feed, my birds go nuts for it but it's actually a complete feed and won't throw off their diet, if you ferment...

    Steak

    I mean, I will eat medium rare steak nowadays but it's still not really my preference and I do not like rare. I'd rather steak be more done than less And if we are talking game animals like deer, well done or nothing. I may take a chance eating decently rare domesticated bovine but wild game...

    Where to buy fertilized ckn eggs in SF Bay Area?

    You can order hatching eggs from most major hatcheries and they'll mail them to you. I like Meyer but cackle, McMurray, ideal poultry and mount healthy are also good and you could probably find individuals selling them on eBay or Craigslist

    Needing Feeding Advice

    Nutrena is good feed too, I had considered it too but tractor supply only had it in 40lb bags rather than 50. Why they would hate kalmbach but endorse nutrena baffles me

    Needing Feeding Advice

    Kalmbach is good feed, I've been feeding their flock maker pellets for over 2 years now with good results and have recently started fermenting henhouse reserve Nonlaying birds certainly don't need the extra calcium in layer but you could just switch to a different formulation. I don't think...

    Meh, I like chewy steak and it certainly does still have flavor

    What made you happy today?

    Simon Blackquill rubbing against my legs when I went outside to put a propane canister on my heater. I found a black and white tuxedo cat that was ran over in front of my property and I thought it was Simon. Turns out I was wrong and I am so glad I was! He's a sweet boy and a welcome sight...

    Things you wish you could say

    Good news! The cat I thought was Simon was just a look a like. I walked outside to put a propane canister on my heater and who rubs against my leg but Simon :D Naturally he got lots of pets and a can of wet food. He certainly had no idea what the fuss was about but was happy for it anyways The...

    Things you wish you could say

    That one of the strays I feed, Simon Blackquill didn't get hit by a car today Picture of the kitty boy pretending to be a flower last year. He was a friendly boy who always demanded pets. If he gotten along with Phoenix and Raven I would have brought him inside but Phoenix tolerates him off and...
