Chickens are outstanding pets, great sources of food (we only eat the eggs-not the chickens  ), great for compost, and good for ticks. I would recommend to anyone. |
you got fertilized eggs? or no roosters...?
i don't like roosters much ,,,, hens i pet like a cat
and they sit in my lap....had 50 free range once
plus peacocks.... because i love MIMICRY,
i could call all the neighbor's peacocks over
to my place... heh heh heh....
used to have a blast at the San Diego Zoo riding
the tram in the sky doing peacock calls real loud
then just watchin
everyone down below look for them
i have been struggling with the idea
but these ticks are BAD
just walkin right next to the house just now
for 10 minutes watering the sugar snap peas
and i came in with one....
sat next to the wife on the couch
and felt it crawling on my elbo
this is happening every single day!
and my wife had one crawling on her face
when she looked in the mirror this mornin @ 6am
so it's outta fukkin control
