I have a selection of Smith/Blehm ameraucana roosters/cockerels which I would be willing to part with, but I'm in Beaufort.

Bag balm for combs and wattles. Its probably the only thing that I'm going to do for this cold snap. Chickens are pretty hardy.

I agree, I had a friendly chicken who was always by my side and I ended up tripping over something and stepping on her head and blinding her in one eye. Most of my chickens and I have a strictly professional relationship (except for the moderns, but they're not loose).

Happy New Year!

I'm in Carteret too. I live in Bettie. I have EE's and Ameraucanas, usually have some for sale. I could also hatch some chicks for you if you like (I have a small incubator addiction which I have completely under control). I love the EE's that Heidi sells at Newport Garden Center too. She...

I would rotate onto safeguard (fenbendazole). Its good to rotate dewormers so that the worms don't develop a resistance to any single medication and fenbendazole is really good stuff, plus its almost impossible to overdose them with it. I dose mine once every three months with a different...

hubby says that it sounds like a bad thermostat. He says that he would take the thermostat off of the wall and disconnect it and then reconnect it, making sure that everything is connected correctly

The javas that my friend just dropped off are gorgeous, wish I had a girl for one of them, but they're partridge javas and my java is a mottled java. They're big boys, very meaty, I may end up just putting them in the pressure cooker.

Thank you for the suggestions, I wasn't thinking. I plan on putting the meat through the grinder because they're free-range and probably tough anyway (not much meat on them). It went way faster. I actually find my ducks easier to do, but I have muscovies and they don't have the down that...

I'm procrastinating. I have to go kill cockerels. I have a beautiful Sumatra mix, and I hate to do it, but he's just got to go. I had a friend bring me two beautiful Brahma boys to process and another friend bringing me like 8 pure partridge java and mile-fleur Leghorn cockerels to process...

I like that idea. My sister-in-law has kept her son believing in Santa for 13 years now. It would seem appropriate if he wasn't such a sasquatch. The kid is 13, and he's like 6ft and still believes in Santa. It just doesn't seem right.

I got a really good deal on some pastel green and painted one of my coops with it. It was a bit shocking at first, but since its weathered, I like it. I'm going to paint the other coop the same color next year when I have to take it apart to replace the chicken wire. But if I didn't have...

Where on the coast are you? I am at the beach too.

Wish I would have met everyone at the show yesterday. I workded at the raffle table so I probably did talk to all of you but I just didn't know it. I was the culry-haired lady with the half-asian six-year-old. I had the LF ams the one buckey and the one non-junior mottled java that were...

I saw you there I think. Were you wearing a shirt with a picture of your mastiff on it? I was working at the raffle table when you bought your tickets. I wasnted to say Hi, but I was afraid it wasn't you. Those were nice favs weren't they. I have the owners number, I get my brahmas from...

Its in Smithfield at the livestock arena

I am showing: two black am cockerels, three pullets, one bbs pullet, one Buckeye cockerel one muscovy, one MW turkey and one partridge silkie roo. My daughter is showing a showgirl cockerel, a slw bantam pullet and she's doing showmanship with her buff silkie hen.

Who's bringing what to sell? I'm donating a pair of faverolles to the silent auction and I'll have a young trio of SBEL's for sale. I'm looking for muscovies, faverolles and ameraucanas, but most of all I NEED a modern game pair and I'm in love with birchens. Everybody keep an eye out...

It seems silly not to allow people to at least have a couple of hens. Heck, a neighbors cat has more potential for being a nuisance than a couple of hens in a run and who would dream of telling their neighbor that they can't have a cat?

That hurts my feelings. I'm a Liberal, I work really hard and am a very productive member of society, I also have a lot of chickens. I think its just a matter of certain people hating chickens. I think there are a lot of people out there that actually have chicken phobias and who have...
