I'm not sure what you mean. I'd like to engage you; can you clarify?

Avoid short cuts in life. Do things the hard way. Get used to taking colder showers and saving power. Avoid mindless entertainment and spend your time learning. Get paper copies of any information that could be useful, such as the open source farm equipment website.

Hi Des et all. We raise chickens here too on the farm. We keep 20 to 30 Laying hens and 2 roosters who like their odds. I use chick start and grow then layena crumbles once they are three to four months. Scratch grain is also a daily feed for them when grown. I also keep a little hay in their diet and use straw bedding. I would consider adding a load of lime in their roaming area. They use the gravel in the lime to grind up the feed in their gizzards. Most breeds are very kind and easy to handle. My favorite laying hen is a buff orphington for its temperment. They will sit contentedly in your lap if you don't mind. Enjoy your brood. Love our chickens.
ETA chickens also use the lime to "dust" themselves which I find entertaining to watch. They get into all manner of contortions before finding a rail to sit on and enjoy the spring sun.edit on 11-3-2012 by DancedWithWolves because: (no reason given)

Ok so everyone is preparing, and lets assume that nothing happens. Nothing happens even after 2014.
No doomsday prophecy came true.
What then?
What are you going to prepare for after that?
Will you still be gullible and believe doomsday prophecies?
Because there will be more! Many more prophecies !
