    Forced to move, totally screwed!

    Sorry I didn’t log in for a few days, I’m becoming consumed with depression. I am trying to find homes for them on Facebook chicken groups.

    Forced to move, totally screwed!

    We live in iowa. I have looked at if there’s any rent to own, but there’s almost nothing rural except a few that are outrageously large and expensive. I know Des Moines and Ames allow poultry pets but nothing there I can afford. Craigslist was something I hadn’t thought of, I don’t know the...

    Forced to move, totally screwed!

    I rent. When I moved here the landlord knew I wanted to raise ducks and chickens, she said I could even use the coop that was here if I fixed it. It was hoarded to the ceiling with trash and took me six months of work to clean. She knew I planned to stay here about 5 years while I save for a...

    What to do with feathers.

    I read chicken feathers are too thick and sharp to make decent pillows, duck and goose feathers are soft but need special fabric or they will just come out through the fabric.

    What to do with feathers.

    Do you dry them before you put them in the bag or when you get ready to use them?

    What to do with feathers.

    I have only processed once and threw the feathers away, but got to thinking there might be better options. Can the leftover feathers be used in the nest box?

    How much daylight do ducks need to start laying eggs?

    I’m not going to add light. I’m looking to calculate at which point in the year there will be enough natural light.

    How much daylight do ducks need to start laying eggs?

    My ducks are almost 7 months old. They have been doing the deed and eating the oyster grit for almost 2 months, but not laying eggs at all, I’m assuming because it’s not the right season. The girls also have been able to fit 3 fingers between their butt bones for weeks. How many hours of light...

    Best rare chick assortment

    Seems to me the “assorted rare pullets” are the leftover mixed hybrid creations. Also since sexing isn’t 100% accurate there can still be cockerels. I’ve had several cockerels from “assorted rare pullets”.

    Everything House Chicken!

    Here’s my house chicken Flamingo but we’ve been calling her ming for short. I brought her inside to recover from loosing a leg, and now she has no interest in going outside without me. She has a modified rabbit crate in the living room but roams the house while we are home.

    Can I keep a bunny in my closet?

    Baby gate might be an issue if it’s plastic. Bunny can gnaw through plastic fairly quickly.
