Ken asks…raising chickens for pets/eggs?We are going to get some chicks soon — after we build a chicken coop. Any nice stories, advice, etc. I am reading up and they seem fairly easy. Also, I have always adored chickens and ducks. They seem to have real sweet personalities (some of them anyway). My ducks were actually cuddly with people. I like both answers to my question so far but I would like to see a couple more answers if anyone has any. Thanks. I’m excited to get our first chicks!Building Chicken Coops answers:You Read complete post here [...]

Donald asks…whats a good dog for a 16 year old male?
