I will happily send him away with a buddy if someone can come get him today! We are in Melbourne. I'll be out & about so text me Four Zero Seven- 756- two nine one six if you are interested...Thanks!

He was born at the end of July, I think. Itsazoo32 hatched him.... he lets me carry him around & pet him like he's a persian kitty or something. He has no name, we've just called him Rooster so far.

This handsome feller is up for grabs. Anyone?!???!?!?!?!?!??! Please, come & get him, I don't want my neighbors hating me.

Quote: Oh wow...what a relief for you and your family! So glad for you. You have NO idea, it was 400lbs off my shoulders...if it wasn't because of my "feathered therapists" I would be in a padded room wearing a white long sleeve shirt a long time ago! lol All joking aside, my girls did...

Hey lovers ...... It's been awhile. Busy with holidays & no time for BYC. : So..... I have a little problem. One of my adorable, sweet, pet-able, huggable, kissable, squeezable, silkies keeps crowing. I thought I was dreaming when I heard it at 4am... but then at dinner tonight he sounded off...

email your weston a price local chapter leader for organic chicken feed options. worth a shot. speckled sussex are a definite favorite of mine. so gorgeous. we love the one at the green marketplace in cocoa. her name is C.C. (short for crazy chicken.) I can't believe I remembered that... but...

HOLY CHICKENS! No one warned me what evil spawn a raccoon could be. Seriously, the ground all around the cage is DESTROYED. The metal cat food can I used as bait is RIPPED TO SHREDS. This is a raccoon, I'm sure of it. Not a honey badger.

We haven't had a raccoon attack any of our chickens. Since it's practically free to trap them (one neighbor gave me a trap to borrow & another promises her boyfriend will take him to some woods far away for me) I would like to do it... just b/c raccoons don't even JUST prey on chickens. Their...

Congrats, Juan! Pretty little pulley egg, if you ask me. Enjoy it! In other news, uninteresting article on backyard chickens in the Florida Today today. Front page, even. The farm it highlights, Funky Chicken Farms, may or may not have sold my neighbor some 3 or so month old...

I recently re-did my coop, as well. I'm very very happy with the set up. I shoveled out the old dirt, mulch & hay (which had mostly turned to dirt from all the manure) & then replaced it with new sand & then equine pine from Tractor Supply. I go in there with gardening gloves & an empty, used...

Well that was a whole lot of worry for nothing- I went outside & the buzzard was gone.

There was recently a news story about an influx of "giant mosquitos" invading b/c of all those storms a few weeks back. Soooo... has anyone had any vulture issues? This morning I have one perched on a dead palm outside. I refuse to get rid of the dead palm, even though I've also seen a hawk up...

Nice one, Juan.

I'm feeling the wrath! Seriously, my neighbor's dogs just got loose. Luckily they're cocker spaniels & all the chickens are intact, but quite shaken... but uhhh... I brought her dog to her front door, intact, & she didn't even say sorry.

Oh really? That's interesting to know. So the people who have cats on leashes aren't crazy!? LOL! KIDDING! Thanks for all that great info. I am a permit-holding chicken owner! Really, truly. The city inspected & everything.

What duck, Jessica? I missed something. Hey so.... random question. Has anyone had any issues with cats? My neighbor has this cat who she calls a kitten & she lets out most of the day. He is young, a little goofy, & chases birds but doesn't catch them. The other day he was creeping over to my...

Quote: If you send me an email or private message, I can give you my old Egg dealer's contact. He's in Buckingham, kind of a trek, but you're not going to find much super close to you. You'll probably only find goat's milk in N Fort Myers, they advertise on craigslist, or at least used to...

Ugh, I love them so much! Too bad I can't have crowers. I also wanted to post & note the set-up for hawk prevention there-- They hang these blow-up balls that have shiny "eyes" almost on them, as well as bird figurines, & all sorts of kite-like spinner things. I had a really farmy...

Rain rain go away, little chickens want to play. My silkies still came out of the coop. They've surprised me as a very hearty yet sweet breed. I really like them & my marans. I'm not sure there are any breeds I don't like. Went to green meadows yesterday, in Kissimmee. This lil' baby was my fav...

I'm obsessed with pinterest- but seriously, look at this POLAR DOG! http://pinterest.com/pin/415305514/
