Jury is still out on the snow. We get most in Feb/March with some scattered through April.Yes it’s great if no wind, -20 and sunny is a good winters day.
Is this a drought of snow for you? If so would you like some of mine?
Beautiful Vistas. I miss the mountains, it is nice to see them! I lived in Colorado Springs, CO for 11 years before moving to Ohio.
Not going to get any chicks from Peavey this year. UFA sells chicks too I believe. I'm going to get chicks from there if I need some. What about you?
Will do
Well thankfully I don’t need chicks this year.
I agree with you.
We have to get to trying vaccination soon. Enclosing chickens without fresh air is not the answer, mass production and use of the vaccine is a possible one. Who cares if other countries won't eat the chickens then. Without some solution there may not be any for them to eat at all some day
Soon they will be recommending small enclosed boxes for them so they can't breathe or even see another chicken. It's disgusting how people see chickens as less than worthy of compassion.
And if one more person complains about the cost of eggs because chickens don't have to live in cages I'm going to put them in one. Eat something else then.
Look up online if there is some sort of petition going on this. If not see if you could rally up other people that own chickens with the same idea. Just my thoughts on it
Eggsactly - I once asked one of my horse vets if I could get my chooks vaccinated, she told me only large poultry farms vaccinated and that back yard chickens were not permitted to use vaccines without some sort of licence.
Seems nuts to me. If my horses can get their shots why not Fluffy? Sheesh. I want my chooks to live long healthy lives and not worry about picking something up from wild birds.
They need to allow more backyard birds in my opinion , also.
