I found Ruby on the kitchen table yesterday. I removed her then went to make my lunch, only to find that she had eaten half of all the tomatoes in a dish on the worktop - I mean she had eaten half of each tomato, so none for me. The back door is now closed.
When you buy your first hens you need to select the right breed and buy from a reputable source.
If you are going to keep poultry, even for eggs, you must accept that there may be times when a bird will have to be hum
Birds for slaughter should be handled quietly and calmly, to prevent panic and distress, and possibly injury.
