We need to learn to kill and butcher them and what best way to do that than with free samples?<br />But to be honest one of them is so fine that we will keep that one at least.

We had made deals with 2 other people to buy hens from them, but both backed down on the last moment, due to various reasons.

Most people water to often and too little, creating lazy plants.<br />Water them properly and not too often, so the water sinks deep and the plant is forced to create roots that go deep.<br />And keep the topsoil loose and covered, so it doesn't cake.<br />Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16946366944260726006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-612862199192033310.post-49275089518964897942016-08-07T22:13:53.556-07:002016-08-07T22:13:53.556-07:00Thank you so much for sharing the info!

You know what I'm talking about because you had to let go of your goats for a while when you got too overwhelmed. But you came back like I will and then I'll have peeps again! Right now I'm struggling to keep our new pomegranate trees alive in this ridiculous heat. If they survive they will be great!

It costs money, but it's worth it.

Actually, it's not just a video but a huge course that deals with everything one needs to know to be a chicken keeper.<br />Yes, in my course I talk about the downsides as well.

I'm 100% sure it's an excellent video! You always do such good work. I do want to ask a question. In your video do you mention any downsides to having chickens? My biggest one is the aspect of not being able to go away and leave them without really good back up or creative preparation. Chickens are so vulnerable in a lot of ways.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
