@@susanvelez6534 you didn’t know? I guess I haven’t shown them as much, we’ve had chickens for about 6 years now and I have added several to the original flock. I like to have at least 5-6 for the amount of eggs we use. And right now we have 5 with two hardly producing so I may need to add more soon And Mr. Rabbit, it’s been about 4 years. He came with a buddy but his friend died 🥹. We might get another when I am able to build a larger hutch. I love having him. He’s very sweet and doesn’t mind being held.

Do NOT give the chickens citrus!!! Not good for them! Get a copy of Lisa Steele's book on natural chicken keeping called "Fresh Eggs Daily." She also covers which herbs are good for them also. So much information. Check out her website also. Wishing you the best from Kansas.

@@GSDsforever thanks for the info. I appreciate you watching! I have a friend who lives in Utica and absolutely loves it. Are you near there at all? On the chickens, I have been keeping chickens for 6 years and have had two different flocks and my parents have a farm where I grew up with probably 30 or more chickens. We feed our chickens everything but avocado and potato peels. I suppose it’s one of those topics that people have different opinions on. But I’ll keep the book in mind. I do want to get them off of chicken feed and feed them from the garden and scraps.

Hi Roxanna, that is a wonderful meal. I wish I could grab a bite thru my computer screen. I've been thinking about you and all the fires in Ca. From what I can tell, I think you are far away from it all. Do you smell it at all outside? My heart goes out to all the folks in Ca. and what they are going thru. In Ma. today I'm getting snow. Wish I could send it to Ca. to help put out the fires. Be safe and keep on cooking and planting. Great video as usual. Have a wonderful evening with Paris.
