    how I kill a chicken without equipment, and without slitting throats

    Looks like a good method for allot of people. However being not quite 5' tall I can see an issue especially with larger birds.

    Daydreaming while waiting impatiently!

    It took us a little over 3 years to find our place. We have some health issues to consider so that cut out allot of places. We must have seen 30 places! We put in about 4 or 5 offers that got rejected but we could go no higher. Oddly, the house 1 door down and across the street was one we looked...

    Importance of clean water tanks!

    A few years ago there was a warning around here (Wisconsin) about letting hunting dogs (or any dog) go in ponds with blur-green algae. I guess it killed a few dogs.

    Throw them in a blender then strain for Orange juice? Maybe mixed with pineapple.

    Herbal Studies

    Thanks for the info! I will look into it. When you get your cabinet I hope you post some pics.! At first I was looking for fancy, interesting bottles for tinctures too. Then I started running into some of the issues you mentioned. They also held so many different amounts and some didn't fit...

    Herbal Studies

    HI All, OK, first time I looked at this thread but have been working with herbs for about 30 years, not counting the "little bit" our family used that I thought everyone knew about. Anyway, from what little I read it seems you do have some good books and I'm always looking for good ones I don't...

    FIRST TURKEYS HATCHED ON FARM

    Awww, so sorry your wound up loosing that hatch.:hugs Mine just hatched a batch, 11 of them! This is the 5th brood this summer and the only hatch! Between skunks taking eggs, and something getting one of my hens, it was a bad summer for poults. Now I think I have Market's in my flock! :hit so I...

    Free Horses!

    DD.... Thanks for checking it out! I had not seen it before and since there was a phone number I thought it might be true. (Perhaps it was at one point) I normally check stuff like that out too, but the way the economy is now days, and as strange as some people are.... well, it got me!

Gentleman died and his son wants nothing to do with them. Most broodmares are broke and some are in foal weanling, yearlings, 2 yrs...

    Possible broken leg on guinea hen

    I think you have a good start there. I would keep her confined and let her out for a few minutes a day while you clean out her cage/pen, but in a small area where she can't try to fly or run. The comfrey is a good idea. Bird heal pretty well when given a chance.

    Expanded the flock... the wrong way but too late now...

    LOL..... That's kind of a joke around here! If someone needs eggs and I'm a couple short I'll just tell them "Time to go squeeze the chickens"!

    Expanded the flock... the wrong way but too late now...

    If the Wyandotte is full or nearly full grown, she will probably be head hen after a while. Sorry for your little EE. Glad she has the NH to help her out. When I expanded my flock the first time I had one PR that was guarded by 2 Australorps. :lol: It will take a bit but they will work it out...

    Old Tomato/Berry Strainer

    I love the old gadgets I grew up with. I learned to cook before all this electric, fancy stuff came along so I found it harder to adapt to the "new" stuff. It's often quicker and easier to get out a small gadget than a processor. I love some of my little gadgets so much that when they finally...
