This is my question precisely. Are people just saying "it's not needed, they are fine." OR are people saying there is something BAD/WRONG about it? I do think it must not be the later because my experience is that while they may not NEED it, it's VERY helpful to me. They don't eat it in my coop...
I know how outnumbered I am, but I really can't believe how many people assert that insulation is bad. I can tell you it's the number one thing that will keep my coop cool all summer. Granted I'm not in a hot climate but we have been getting serious temps more and more each summer. Last year we...
Animal farm is Fiction but you might like Farm City by Novella Carpenter, Non-Fiction. And Animal, Vegetable Miracle is one of Barbara Kingsolver's best. I'll read anything by BK.
I agree that it's not a LO, it's a blue bird. Could be Australorp or Marans. What was the bin supposed to be? Could be one of those Blue Hoover's mixes...... Nothing says cockerel to me.... :confused:
This is why I don't "pre-ferment," it turns bad too fast. Instead I add water to "feed powder," in a big shallow pan like a horse grain feeder and leave it out for them for about 3 days(putting it up at night in galvanized garbage cans.). It's always gone by the end of the 3rd day. Anything more...
Exactly this. Depends totally on where you are. Where I am, they absolutely can and have done this. I filed complaints and the county followed through. The person had to take down a shed and other outbuildings. This is Riverfront, very strict rules, but the sheds were to close to the road, not...
I'm thinking of getting one, level 3 for sure.... I can't tell by the one time how well it works. I know that acupuncture really helped my shoulder a while back....
Has anyone seen/tried the new Accupressure mats? 3 levels, my son got a level 2, told me all about how he "worked up to 10mins." So I tried it, with focus on my lower back. I could have taken a hour long nap on that thing. Is it my age, toughness and level of pain I just tolerate all the time...
Thought I'd go ahead and finish this out. It's been a month long battle and we lost this morning. Just last night we again put her in a hospital next to her flock mates but separated to give the crop another rest period and to see if she was pooing, if anything was getting through the blockage...
YES this! Do the reading. It's a painfully long read/watch but do it. Initially I was resistant and did a speed read, wanted a fast track.... Al G and Howard E, changed my ways. Rats are out there in woods. They should be and have every right, I mean I live in a Nat'l forest. But they don't...
I don't know how many fellow Six Sigma peeps may be on here. But I think no one would question this Project Charter. Just want you to know that stakeholders are every chicken keeper and beyond. It's sort of a fun exercise for me as a SS black belt. Sorry to say I'm headed out of town for the...
