[QUOTE=DK2021;770041]Amazingly enough, they do. They have enough nutrients from the last of the yolk when they hatch to keep going for a little while, and there is always a minimum number of chicks to keep the group of them warm during shipment. I've only ever received chicks shipped by USPS, and you have to pick them up at your post office, or at least that is what I've had to do.


Raising hens for your own eggs doesn't really save money, at least in the short term, but they're entertaining, and if managed well will do their part in weeding and insect control. Some breeds are particularly friendly and make good pets. And of course, you'll be forever spoiled as far as fresh eggs go! I don't keep hens at the moment as I do too much travel and would be reluctant to leave a coop unattended for more than a day as we have coyotes, foxes, and bobcats where I live.[/QUOTE]



My hens certainly save us money,i mix my own feed and hatchmy own chicks and get almost 100% production year round and then sell extras for 8 dollars/ dozen. We keep about 20 hens and 1 rooster. I source non gmo corn,peas wheat and use rock dusts,kelp,fish meal etc etc.

And here i was thinking i had all the seeds i was going to purchase for this season..Hopefully Sandhill still has a few Lynnwood seeds!

As perhaps the world's greatest skeptic on great tasting red tomatoes, I'll have to trial Lynnwood.

I've grown maybe a half dozen red globes and beefsteaks with great flavor, whereas the even greater tasting pinks would number in the several hundreds.

Great tasting red hearts are plentiful.

would you care to list that half dozen great tasting reds?

I agree. Pinks seem to taste better than reds, and it is hard to find reds in the same category as the best pinks.

Thanks everyone for posting (and resurrecting, in a way) Lynnwood. Love hearing good things about new to me, old favorites of others.

Hopefully we can get it into MMMM next year so more can try it.

I came here looking to reduce my tomato varieties and i had to add one to the list:)) if you look close you might see a Lynnwood packet in this years Sandhill order. ** the pic uploaded blurry compared to the original Lynnwood is bottom left**

I also just received my Lynnwood seeds today also!

Lynnwood might be my best tasting tomato so far this year. Terhune has been good as well but I've only had one of those so far. Thanks for the suggestion Fusion!

Hi Guys,

Anthony
