Someone needs to call the physics department
>>2732259Sister, may I have some oats?
>>2733214I mean ticksOh I fuck it up...
>>2733214>>2733215Sister... The ticks...
>>2733239Yes, sister?I need the proteins for the hard work I require ticks
>>2732259fat fuck
>>2732259Does chickens eats ticks? Can they make my backyard safe for the kiddos?
>>2733457They can make it safer, but typically biological controls require other controls to be completely effective. I'd recommend getting ducks if you want to eat the eggs, or guineafowl if you want the most insect control per bird.
S-sisters there are no ticks in the water! send help
>>2732259About to lay a HUGE egg
>>2732259>sïster, may I have some ticks? I am very scanty on tïcks sister and my bulk will not otherwise survive the coming winter
Does anyone have that picture of a malay chicken dressed as Lara Croft? It used to get posted on /b/ all the time, but I never saved it.
>>2734024I searched on my /an/ memes and I don't have anything, sorry anon
>>2733849a LOOOONG egg
>>2734377Damn. Well thanks for trying. I always knew I'd regret not saving it one day.
>>2733457>>2733584The truth to controling ticks is that they will only be in a place where they have food. I have tall grass in my backyard but I only get one or two ticks a year and that's because I set up a fence to keep deer out, starving the ticks. I also have a bunch of log piles for snakes to live in which keep the rodent population in control. Poultry are helpful obviously but sometimes you need to attack the problem at the root.

>>2732259Don't you wanna just squish it?
chicken passed away because no ticks
>>2735203All of those are so pretty. Do you know what breed laid those green eggs?
>>2733584Why do you recommend ducks for the eggs?
>>2736317NTA pic related >>2736325Because guineafowl only lay 100 eggs per year even though 90% of their diet is insects, while chickens can lay up to 300 eggs per year but the majority of their diet is not insects and they can destroy your garden. Ducks can lay up to 350 eggs per year and they will eat as many insects as they can. I really only meant to compare the guineafowl and the ducks, but if insect control is your primary goal then chickens wouldn't be my first choice.

>>2736336thanks
>>2736339No problem. I didn't realize there were so many duplicates in that image. Here's a better one, but it doesn't show the different shades from different breeds. You kind find a dozen more by searching "egg color chart" or something similar.
>>2736431That's very helpful. I appreciate it.
>>2736585No problem
