I recently posted about my fence rollers in a response to a coyote attack message (to keep dogs in and coyotes/dogs out). I thought I would explain how I did my DIY version for those who are interested.
I have a coworker who had his kids hatch welsh harlequin ducklings for their science fair project- he has 11 of them and I believe he is willing to give them away free to good homes. He is about a week away from putting fliers at local feed stores- b
I have 2 Australorp hens, 3 months old that I need to re-home. They are good girls but I need chickens that are more adept at flying. I am in Chandler.
Hope someone can help. Some of my chickens, not all, have raw necks under their beak or gullet. At first I thought it might be molting, but no. Then thought it might be that they are rubbing up against something in the coop. They are not sick, n
I am hoping someone out there knows someone who may do some work on chicken coops in the west valley (very west valley - 184th Ave.). My chicken coop is really cute but in the wrong place. I think it will have to be deconstructed and reconstructed
If anyone missed out on the last beef sale for whatever reason, I am happy to announce we are preparing for another beef delivery on April 4th. This is Grass Fed, Pastured Angus Beef. We do not use a feed lot to finish the cows on dead grass. We have
In another week or so, I should have a small clutch of welsh harlequin ducklings. I am hoping for 4, but I won't count my ducklings before they are hatched. They are under a mama muscovy, but the eggs came from my flock of Holderreads Welsh Harlequin
I got three chicks that were three days old back in November. One turned out to be a rooster and I would love to find a home for him that isn't the stew pot. I can't have him in my community--he is an Americauna, about 11 weeks old, silver, black a

As part of our pasture restoration program, we are using raw skim milk. This means we have some cream which needs to be put to good use. Does anyone have a butter churn we could use in exchange for some of the butter? Or is there a good place to buy
We will be incubating ducks eggs soon, we do want to increase our flock but will have ducklings to sell. We will be willing to brood them if needed and deliver them when they are ready to be outside. Or we can call and 2 day old ducklings can be pick
We have come upon an opportunity to provide more Pastured Grass-Fed Beef for our March 1st availability date. This is Angus beef raised and processed in Arizona. They have not received any antibiotics, hormones, or steroids. To make this available, w
I'm a new chicken keeper. I got three Americauna chicks locally when they were three days old. They are now eight weeks old. Over the last week or so I started questioning whether one might be a rooster. This chick is different in all ways from t
Hey all, I'm looking to add some Cream Legbars to my flock and am putting in an order to Greenfire Farms to ship in the next few weeks. I'm not quite up to the minimum number, so does anyone want to pick up a few rare birds? They have true Swedish Fl
Help!! Our 4 1/2 month old Production Red "hen" is suddenly morphing into a rooster and unfortunately we can't keep him. We hand raised from a chick, so he's sweet tempered and friendly. He's been with 3 other hens and is cooped at night but free ran
I have 4 chickens that we bought as chicks (not straight run) and are now 4 1/2 months old. I was sure we had all hens...until today. We have one production red that I bought as a sexed chick who has been developing a red comb and waddle for quite a
Does anyone know where I can get a lamb in Phoenix? I inherited a little lamb from someone who couldn't take care of her, and she really needs a friend! She is too small to join my goats, and she is very lonely. If anyone can point me in the right
