    Logic Atv flail cutter/mower

    Will a logic flail mower cut grass to a “lawn / outfield” standard? I have had a rough cut mower which has served me well but is about at its limit for life and so looking at the logic as I cut a fair few rushes (a lot to be honest) and dead grass in pastures but the rough cut has a blade and...

    Hens losing feathers and red

    Some of out hens are losing feathers and very red. They look sore but are actually laying relatively normally and are not ‘acting’ sore. As far as I can tell there is no red mite, they are not pecking at each other and we took one to the vet but they had no answers and gave a steroid injection...

    Dozen Egg Boxes

    Is there anywhere that I can get dozen egg boxes from? Can get millions of half dozen but keep looking on internet and eBay and no one seems to sell dozens. Other than picking up what people give us after buying at supermarkets ,they are like rocking horse muck. Thank you.

    Fence round chickens

    We have 25 free range hens in 3 separate houses and have just decided to buy a larger hen hut for all of them rather than mending again the original huts. But as we are at work we tend to leave them in until we get home and then let them out to give less chance for our friend’s Mr Fox and Mrs...

    Salter/Ritchie mechanical scale head

    I have a Ritchie pig and lamb scale that all the kg scale has disappeared off. I have got a new face for it but I take the little bolt off the arrow and it is still fastened on by some means. I haven't tried to force it either way for fear of breaking it and was just wondering if anyone knew...
