But it can stink... I only have 13 birds, I dust the coop with pine shaving every other day and clean the coop once a week. I put lime down, then chips. That keeps the smell down

Oh my goodness, Rusty. That’s funny. A hungover chicken. I am sure glad PETA didn’t hear about this!
They’re trying to nail the officer on something if only to calm the rioters.
YouTube has taken down the speech of Former President Donald Trump at #CPAC2021 and given us at the @americanconservativeunion a warning that it's a "scam." They're blatantly using their corporate power to silence conservatives. This has to end. @CPAC -- Matt Schlapp Mschlapp Thursday, March 11, 2021
Does he actually shoot them with a 22? Seems like that would waste a lot of meat. Not to mention scaring the rest of them.
it is hard. I always just told myself that having a quality, good life while they are alive is what counts.
PA, NJ, NY, MI, and IL, I’m not surprised. But THREE from Florida?? Are they carpetbaggers from up north?
Exactly!
Can you image what Antifa/BLM will do if they can’t nail Officer Chauvin for something?
Yes, he shoots them in the head. it definitely is rough on the rest of them.
I figured you’d know more about it than I do. All I know is what some farmer told me when I was a kid. He said the chicken poop was too acidic or something. But I haven’t had any chickens since I left home. Other than Gertrude, I didn’t care for them especially when they peck each other to death. I can’t eat runny yolk and if I eat chicken it has to be spiced up so it doesn’t taste chickeny.
My dad kept around 80 hens, we sold the eggs. So with that many, the smell can get bad, depending on which way the wind is blowing.
There are pockets of dims in FL, likely they are from those areas.
“55% of Florida’s registered Democrats live in just 7 counties: Broward, Miami-Dade, Palm Beach, Hillsborough, Orange, Duval, and Pinellas.”

Remember the election scandal that happened in Broward county a few years ago.
Linda says Senate won’t pass it. Sure hope he’s right. This will be a good time to buy stock in gun industry, and buy another gun or two.
Chicken manure is very “hot” with nitrogen and ammonia and will burn plants. So it has to sit for a while. Here is a good article about it https://extension.okstate.edu/fact-sheets/using-poultry-litter-as-fertilizer.html
I have heard of people who let the litter soak, strain and use the water to fertilize. I haven’t tried that one. Seems like a lot of work.
I know that hay growers around here spread it every spring on hay pastures to the dismay of city folks who moved out here - the smell is eye-watering lol.
I don’t think PETA existed back then.
I can imagine! I can’t eat red meat so chicken and eggs are the majority of my diet - I do get tired of it tho
Maybe not. They’ve only been annoying us since 1980.
Grahamnasty, back to calling him that, is probably right, need 60 votes to pass.
Will Rino/NeverTrumpers step up to help them?
