A significant milestone was hit on my Facebook page this week as the fan ticker hit the 50,000 mark! I have been blessed to be able to interact with so many wonderful people around the world daily, sharing our love and appreciation for backyard chickens.
When I wasn’t on Facebook or writing magazine articles this week, I was busy shipping Spruce the Coop Herbal Fusion. I had a little trouble keeping up with demand, but am now fully stocked and herbal pest control is on its way to nest boxes all over the country!

Love this blog. I'm new to it but love it.
I'm new to this and new to the chicken business too. Just got started this year and I'm so in love with them it's not funny. It's so fun coming home from work and seeing my girls oh one rooster. I let them run the yard for a few hours every night and them it's bed time and they go right in the coop. Thank you so much for the help you have gave me on face book and you web site
Would love one of these feeders! My girls love to dig the food out of the feeder and waste it all over the run floor!
I want to win the feeder please! My ladies are messy and LOVE to waste food!
Would love to win one of Grandpa's Feeder for my girls! I have a mouse problem in my coop and have been trying to keep the feed contaminent-free.
