Thinking outside the coop: 8 common myths about raising backyard poultry

collected. Then, around dusk, after the chickens have wandered back to the coop, the door needs to be locked to protect from predators.
Myth 2: Chickens (and coops) smell. "Chickens themselves don't smell, nor does a well-maintained coop," Steele says. "On average, a chicken produces about 1.5 ounces of manure a day, which is far less than the average dog - not to mention, when composted, it makes wonderful nitrogen-rich fertilizer Here to set the record straight for for a garden." our feathered friends is poultry expert Lisa Steele, creator of the Myth 3: Chickens are noisy. renowned Fresh Eggs Daily brand "Despite what you may have heard, and author of three top-selling chickens are pretty quiet. In fact, a books on the subject. Steele is also clucking chicken tends to be on par a consultant with Tractor Supply with normal human conversation Company, the rural lifestyle retailer (60-65 decibels). In other words, it's now celebrating Chick Days with a lot quieter than your neighbor's live chicks and ducklings at its barking dog, lawn mower or car alarm," Steele says. stores nationwide. (BPT) - From fresh egg production to natural garden fertilizer, there is no shortage of benefits in raising backyard poultry. But even as families become more familiar with sustainable living and keeping chickens, several poultry myths still exist.
Here are Steele's common myths backyard flocks:
eight most surrounding
Myth 1: Chickens are difficult to care for. "There is, of course, a certain level of responsibility required to properly care for any living animal. However, when it comes to backyard poultry, the time commitment is fairly minimal - maybe 30 minutes daily," Steele says. Here's what you can expect: In the morning, chickens will need to be let out and fed; waterers will need to be filled. At some point, eggs will need to be
Roosters are a different story, and some areas prohibit them for that very reason. Be sure to check your local ordinances about keeping backyard poultry! Myth 4: You need a rooster to get eggs. Chickens will lay eggs regardless of whether or not there is a rooster in the flock. A male chicken is only needed to fertilize an egg, meaning eggs laid by hens in a rooster-less flock can never hatch into baby chicks. And while there are some benefits to having roosters, they aren't necessary for your hen to

produce a basket of delicious, fresh eggs. Myth 5: A chicken lays an egg every day. Fresh eggs to eat and share with friends are one of the best benefits of raising poultry, but Steele says not to expect your hen to lay an egg every day. "The average chicken will produce four to five eggs a week, but that will vary depending on the chicken's age, breed, health and environment. Shorter days, extreme temperatures, molting (growing in new feathers) and other stressors, such as the presence of predators, can all affect egg production," Steele says.
explains. "While salmonella can be transmitted to humans through poultry dander and feces, simply washing hands after handling the chickens keeps the risk of infection minimal." The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) also cautions against live poultry inside the home and against letting children younger than 5 years old handle poultry.
Myth 8: Chickens attract rodents and predators. "Wild predators are not any more attracted to chickens than they are to wild birds, rabbits, squirrels and other small animals," Steele says. "The truth is, predators are likely already living in your midst. Myth 6: Brown eggs are more The key to keeping them at bay is to keep your chickens safe in an nutritious than white eggs. "The nutrient content of an egg is enclosed pen or run area. Chicken based largely on a hen's diet, not the feed should also be taken up at color of its egg, which is determined night and stored in predator-proof solely by the chicken's breed," containers to reduce the possibility Steele says.

Scarlet
Just imagine finding yourself in a terrifying, dark and noisy place, frostbitten from the subzero temperatures; so frightening you are too afraid to move. The sounds of the high speed traffic of the highway so scary that you are paralyzed in fear, cannot find your way to safety. So terrifying that even now, in the warmth of the shelter, you are too scared to lift your head. You are so traumatized, unable to see or hear well, surrounded by love and kindness, but unable to respond and trust. This is Scarlet, a sweet girl of 9 - 11 years old, found by the side of a busy road. She was miraculously uninjured, apart from the frostbite. She deserves a quiet, calm, loving and caring home for the rest of her life. A place which will protect her and help her trust again; a place where she can curl up in safety and warmth with kind people to look after her. Please come and see Scarlet. She needs you. The CCC is in need of volunteers for both morning and afternoon shifts, 7 days a week. We are also in need of supplies, especially litter (Scoop Away), bleach, laundry detergent, dry and wet cat and kitten food (Purina/Friskies), paper towels, trash bags, and treats! Any help is very much appreciated! We are located at 289 Thompson Road in Webster and are open Thurs day through Sunday 12pm-3:30pm. You can see more of our adoptable cats on Petfinder and Adopt-a-pet and we would love it if you would follow us and share our kitties on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com /pages/Community-Cat Connection/18375625177438.
