I tried but the roo had a heart attack one day.. Huge beautiful boy.. Was growing then just fell over dead.. The hens ha e turned out to be good layers.

Hi all, we have kept egg layers for years, but ordered a batch of meat birds(red rangers).. I want to be as self sufficient as possible so have been debating on what to do with my last few chickens.. i have 2 ladies and a roo left and I want to keep at least the roo to breed with our heritage...

It's been a long time coming! I lived with one of those boxes for a long time in my apartment. Now have 13 acres and a dream!

The new raised bed garden.. still working on the fence

Yea I'm aware.. was cheap and easy.. been in it over a week so far no probs.. turkeys I had to lid today..

25 Red Roasters there's also 3 new egg layers in there to add to the flock. We will have 9 egg layers 25 meat birds and hopefully finish with 3 turkeys all still alive at the end of the season for processing.
