My cats deal with that problem !

I was going to say- surely a cat would solve this problem?

Eggs were the best ive eaten

Strangely, I never found any difference in taste between my hens and shop bought.

My hen's eggs were a lot better colour but that's it.

Really? Wow. I've kept chickens for 13 year (still have 2 of my original group alive) and the eggs are infinitely better than shop ones.

Good afternoon kind folk of NSC

We are moving house soon and are exploring the idea of getting some chickens.

Has anyone here got experience of keeping some feathered pals?

A couple of questions-

-any tips to avoid fox themed SLAUGHTER
-any tips regarding equipment etc

thanks

Never try to catch one when your drunk.
