We had a bad garlic year and will need to replace all our seed stock so we
are seed shopping and wondered if anyone on this list sells seed. We live in
central NC so I would prefer east coast seed and as local as I can
get.Especially looking for "Guatemalan" a hardneck that grows well here and
some turban types especially "Shantung".
Thanks

This is interesting. Recently, on two different ocassions, Marlin found a
headless chicken in a nestbox. Our chicken house is on a wagon. We stand
on the wagon hitch to lift the flap and reach into the nest box to gather
eggs. In the one case he saw blood on the outside of the flap. We have
been trying to figure out if a fox could/would climb up and reach in. (We
know foxes are around and have eaten some chickens and a neighbor's duck
outside of the electra-net fence.) Could an owl, hawk, or weasel lift a
plywood flap?

Just yesterday I had a opossum in my coop, He only ate one chicken and only
ate the head. I know it was a opossum cause he was still in there in the
morning when I let everyone out!

Hi Folks...it's interesting to me that the folks that have chickens...for
layers or broilers...find it somewhat amazing that critters get into their
chicken coops...kill their chickens...then wonder why. Secure your coops
folks...cos the various varmints will send some of your fowl to the big
coop in the sky if they can find a way in. Franklin
