This morning as I looked down the farm I saw a bunch of the free range males in the shade on the west side of the barns. As the sun got higher and the shade...

Darlene, Being able to keep calm with the peas is from 40 years of experience. I too have worried, fretted and cried over them. Even now I have times that I...

Darlene, We would have lost you as a member if you had a dozen eggs that didn't even pip. They were due today but nothings going on -- not the first hole in...
Hi Iona, see any cracks in those eggs this morning? I've read of chicks hatching out late so I'll be giving mine plenty of time. Tomorrow is 28 days but I...
