This is my friend Kevin. He uses these great small chicken tractors on his holding. He uses hem as small coops and as broody/chick coops. This time, when he needed a new one, he decided to film and share it. Share and give a like to him if you watch it please :) It has two parts.

Thought this was a great spot for this link. Videos, links, classes etc on one extension page. https://food.unl.edu/food-preservation

I have no affiliation at all but one of the online places I get fabric is having online classes via zoom. You end class most times with a finished item and there is quite the range. Some look really interesting. There is a tank top one at the end of July. Hmmmmm. (Many of the patterns are PDF...

Hoping there is someone in Norway still watching this thread. Last year I was watching a television show on NRK online when NRK decided to stop allowing those outside access to their network. I am looking for the name of a show. It was a farm family that did things the old way, horse plowing...

Make sure we know WHERE you are in case weather or other location conditions are a factor. WHAT you won't be planting again. And WHY.

I do Scandinavian bands and have a large Norwood Cherry Loom, 4 shafts.

In case you don't know, Alpacas aren't known for their outward reaching bravery. You've heard of the flight or fight response in animals? Well, Alpacas are flight and flight animals. Their goal is to run faster than anyone else in the herd and not get eaten by the Jaguar. Heck, I've seen...

OK I have a hen on 6 eggs. Today is day 19 (Thursday). They are marans eggs, so candling was darn near impossible even with a maglight so bright it can see through time itself. Anyway, I've had doubts. She's a great broody, I just think it was too early in the year for fertilization to be...

Is there a digital drawing pad that doesn't require a computer to run on? I use a chromebook and don't relish the idea of setting up an OS computer to have a digital art platform. I could run a digital art ap from the chromebook, but I have one that DOESN"T have a touch screen. Grrrrr...

My two girls are not ones to play with toys. I don't know what kind of life they had in the 6 years years before I had them. But they live like princess' here. They HAVE toys and chews available to them. As you know there is precious little information out there about donkeys beyond the...

I have to pure Icelandic Cockerels. Finally old enough to go to a new home. 16 weeks old on Feb 28th. Both are black and white speckled, both have gold saddle feathers and single combs. One has a back head and tail and a straight silver comb. One has a white head and tail and a single...

Can someone tell me the treatment and dose for gapeworm. My multiworm poultry treatment (strike iii) doesn't cover gapeworm. If the answer is ivermectin topical drops on her back (5), which one?

Cook them in your pressure cooker! No more waiting a week or more for your fresh eggs to mellow so you can boil and more easily peel them. Place the minimum amount of water in your pressure cooker. Put your eggs in the cooker ON a rack or in a steamer basket. (I had neither, so I put...

With the insurgency of backyard and small flock chicken keeping, my son has decided to write a research paper on the most common diseases and pests (not predators) that flocks come up against. Could you please take a second to fill out this poll??? Thank you.

They never stop making me giggle, but really?

Well, with the all the wonderful information on BYC about fermented feed, we decided to give it a try. My girls LOVE LOVE LOVE squishy food. Anytime rain has managed to make it into their feeders, they defend on the mush with a gusto that would match a kid in a candy store. I set up my three...

We've been keeping track of the number of eggs laid. Mostly for fun, but DS thinks it's a hoot. He like to figure the price per egg with coop and food. ANYWAY.... we HAD been keeping track on a chalkboard in the laundry room. THe problem was, you'd forget. By the time you'd go out to the...

My lavender orpington decided last week that she was going to be broody. I don't know what part of that sounds like fun, but she did. She was broody day 1,and laid an egg. But wouldn't STAY in the box. Day2 broody, laid and egg, and wouldn't stay in the box. Day 3 out playing doing normal...

I though I heard a vixen the other night. I happened to glance out the window at 7pm tonight and saw a HUGE male fox running along the edge of the meadow and running the length of my run. it caught sight of me as I grabbed my gun and took off into the tall grass. It's kit season. Form some...

Ok, so the necropsy came back on the little pullet. she had urate build up and combined with dehydration, had gout and pneumonia scarring on her lungs. They speculate she had battled e.coli, lived, but it left her compromised and just never fully recovered before she was shipped to me, which...
