chicken

In 2007, we left my home of almost 30 years, along with my training operation (I spent my life as a professional horse trainer) my family and my friends, and took a job on a 250,000 acre cattle ranch in SE Oregon beneath the Steens We are 2 hours from closest town, which has very little to...

We have a mini-farm with goats, chickens, and guineas. If anyone wants to take goats or how to keep your guineas from running off and getting eaten please let me know! I love them all and I want them so to have the best life! We also have a couple of dogs if anyone wants to chat about those.

I saw this forum doesn't have many posts on it and not much activity, which saddens me. I'm a big fan of using natural means to maintain health when at all possible, especially for animals. Lately I've been exploring the same methods for my dogs, though I've used natural methods on them down...

Please help me I am freaking out. My Patriarch Rock Bantam is having a hard time eating, not acting herself, and unable to perch. She is currently in isolation with another show bird in the garage. A couple things about the weather just to possibly help are that it has been a cold week and the...
