Butkowski explained that the policy made the rink attendants eligible for overtime pay if they worked more than eight hours in a day. Long -servicing staff believe that previous council action had precluded this provision for the seasonal rink staff. Butkowski said the proposed changes would clarify this issue. Currently, rink attendants are not allowed to work more than eight hours in a day. The policy revision will allow attendants to work more than eight hours a day and receive overtime pay if they work over 40 hours in a week. The policy change will provide more flexibility when scheduling rink attendant hours. Councilor Mac Lean moved to approve the Personnel Policy revisions as presented. Councilor Hawkinson seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. Proposed Rental Housing Ordinance Revisions Butkowski has been working with the city attorney to make final revisions to the Rental Housing License Provisions ordinance, including the Crime Free Housing provisions. The Crime Free Housing section allows for the immediate eviction of a tenant for egregious actions at a rental property. The Council needed to determine what conduct would rise to the level where immediate eviction was warranted. In lieu of listing crimes, the Council suggested that conduct chargeable as a gross misdemeanor or felony be subject to the Crime Free Housing provisions. Butkowski will discuss this with the city attorney. Other changes to the rental housing ordinance clarify the occupancy of a tenant after revocation or suspension of a rental housing license. If adopted, the landlord would have 30 days to ensure the tenants have moved out of the property. The proposed ordinance changes will be incorporate into the document and the ordinance will be ready for adoption at the next meeting. Agenda items for the January 22 council meeting include a discussion of the Animal Control Ordinance in regards to the keeping of chickens and other fowl, the Rental Housing License Provisions ordinance, and the collateral pledge from North Star Bank. Mayor Dains explained the Council was moving into the work session. Work sessions are a continuation of the meeting but not aired on community television. The Mayor asked if anyone present wished to address the Council. No one present addressed the Council.

COUNCIL ACTION FORM Action Requested Consent Public Hearing Discussion X Action X Resolution i Work Session Meeting Date January 22, 2013 ITEM NUMBER Rental Housing Ordinance STAFF INITIAL APPROVED BY ADMINISTRATOR DESCRIPTION OF ISSUE AND PAST COUNCIL ACTION: Since the last meeting, additional language was added to clarify what happens to tenants if an owner chooses not to renew a license (as opposed to having it revoked or suspended by the City Council). The ordinance as drafted requires the owner to provide at least 30 days notice prior to the lapse of the license (by the end of November). These requirements are found in sections 9 -I1 -7(D) and 9-11-8(H). Section 9-11-6(E) was also changed to reflect the previous council discussion whereby the Crime Free Housing Provisions would apply in instances where the tenant or the tenant's guests engaged in criminal behavior chargeable as a gross misdemeanor or felony (even if they are not charged or there isn't a conviction). If there are no further revisions, the Council may adopt the ordinance after holding a final public hearing. The Council may then consider adopting a resolution allowing staff to pub- lish the changes by title and summary as the ordinance is lengthy at 19 pages. OPTIONS: • Continue to amend the ordinance. • Adopt the ordinance (with or without amendments). • Adopt the resolution allowing for an abbreviated publishing of the ordinance. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Motion to adopt Ordinance 13-1 amending the Code of Ordinances relating to the Rental Housing License Provisions.

Dated this 22"d day of January, 2013. APPROVED: Jeffrey Dains, Mayor ATTEST: Heather Butkowski, City Administrator (Roseville Review: January 29, 2013) LAUDERDALE COUNCIL ACTION FORM Action Requested Consent Public Hearing Discussion Action Resolution Work Session X Meeting Date January 22, 2013 ITEM NUMBER Animal Ordinance Discussion STAFF INITIAL AD, APPROVED BY ADMINISTRATOR DESCRIPTION OF ISSUE AND PAST COUNCIL ACTION: The raising of "urban chickens" has become popular in the past couple of years. Whether cities allow chickens or not is very different. In Ramsey County, St. Paul and Maplewood allow them by ordinance and an annual license is required. In New Brighton and Roseville, they are basically allowed because they are not prohibited. This means the City does not provide licenses and would only be involved in a nuisance situation. Falcon Heights, Mounds View, Little Canada, and North St. Paul prohibit them. St. Anthony prohibits them unless the resident receives City Council approval. Arden Hills, Vadnais Heights, and White Bear Lake do not appear to address the issue in their animal control ordinances. As the Council was made aware recently, Lauderdale residents were given permits for chickens and ducks due to codification errors when the animal control ordinance was last updated. With the Council undertaking the revision of the animal control ordinance, this is the time to clarify issues surrounding the raising of chickens or other fowl in the City. Be- fore staff became aware of the issue with the ordinance, six chicken/duck permits were is- sued. Only two permits were applied for in the past year. The other permits have lapsed. The Council discussed setting aside time at three city council meetings to gather input from residents before deciding how to proceed. The codification error has had the effect of creat- ing a poultry "pilot project." Staff invited those who received poultry permits to attend the meeting and provide perspective on the raising of chickens. Until the recent introduction of roosters in the City, staff has not received complaints from the community about the chick- ens that were permitted. If the Council does not to allow poultry within the City, staff will draft the ordinance to that effect and prepare some methods for phasing out those that currently have chickens or ducks. If the Council plans to allow poultry, staff will begin drafting the ordinance that way based upon the outcome of the discussion. DESCRIPTION OF ISSUE AND PAST COUNCIL ACTION: There are a variety of issues to consider: • Permitted fowl • Permit management • Bird limitations • Coop location • Disposal and slaughter • Community input Permitted fowl: The primary interest has been in hen chickens for the benefit of the eggs. As I mentioned above, there has been a recent introduction of roosters at one residence if not two. The rea- son for a rooster is to breed chickens. Roosters are not required for egg production. One person received a permit for ducks. Generally, people raise ducks for their meat but some are also good layers and people consume their eggs as well. There is general agree- ment from the sources I have read that ducks need a source of water nearby (that needs to be cleaned regularly). Some cities require the legs of the birds be banded with the owners ID in case the animal gets out. Some do not. Permit Management: If the Council allows poultry, the Council may choose to permit them or allow them without permit. The benefit to permitting is knowing where the animals are and being able to ad- dress things like coop location, coop size, and number of chickens on the front end. As this entails an administrative expense, cities that issue permits usually charge a fee. Non -permit issuing cities like Roseville and New Brighton don't take on those administrative costs and don't have a fee. They rely on their nuisance ordinances to address situations and could re- cover costs they incur through the abatement process. Either option is available. Unlike with dogs and cats, in the case of chickens you are not giving a permit for each bird but allowing the activity. If the Council chooses to issue permits, staff suggests having a multi-year permit (3-5 years) to eliminate some of the administration of the permit program. The City should charge a fee that covers the cost of issuing a license as the current $10 does not. The cost should be closer to $50 to cover the cost of issuing the license, records reten- tion, and managing the animal database. Bird Limitations: When urban chicken ordinances started being drafted, 3-4 birds seemed to be a typical limit. I have not found information on why those limits were chosen. Maplewood's recent ordi- nance allows 10, Stillwater 5, and Minneapolis is unlimited. Some cities require the coop and run be a certain number of square feet per bird, which would be a limiting factor. The number of birds per permit is at the discretion of the Council but staff can provide more re- search for the Council at a future meeting. Coop Location: Coops are often held to the same standards found in zoning ordinances. This would include the keeping of the coops in the rear or side yards and at least five feet from property lines. Disposal of Animals: Unlike traditional pets, poultry can also be eaten so many cities have taken up the issue of slaughtering. Some ordinances simply state that outdoor butchering is not allowed leaving people to do with the animals as they see fit inside their homes. Some ordinances prohibit slaughtering altogether. Common language found in many ordinances is as follows: Dead chickens must be dis- posed of according to the Minnesota Board of Animal Health rules which require chicken carcasses to be disposed of as soon as possible after death, usually within forty-eight (48) to seventy-two (72) hours. Legal forms of chicken carcass disposal include offsite burial, offsite incineration or rendering, or offsite composing. Community Input: Some cities require the applicant to get approval from nearby property owners/tenants. The threshold in Maplewood is 100% of adjacent properties. The threshold in St. Paul is 75% of owners/tenants within 100 feet. In this instance some people within a city can have chick- ens and some not which may lead to a sense that it isn't fair. OPTIONS: The topic was included in the Work Session to offer a more informal time to discuss the issues with those currently raising chickens. Staff attached some information we found helpful. Matt Koncar prepared information for the Council which is included in the packet. Staff will proceed after the meeting based on the discussion and Council direction.

The court must also order the person violating the law to pay restitution for the cost and expenses resulting from the incident. Minn. Stat. § 343.21, subd. Upon conviction, the court must require that if the pet or companion animal 10. was not seized by a peace officer or agent and is in the custody or control of the person, the pet or companion animal must be turned over to a peace officer or other appropriate person unless the court determines that the person is able and fit to provide adequately for the animal. The court may limit the person's further possession or custody of a pet or companion animal and may impose conditions on possession or custody. C. Farm animals Farm animals generally include animals that typically live on farms, such as cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, horses. A city can define "farm animals" in its ordinance to include whatever animals it wishes. Section N -A Minnesota Pet In addition to the Animal Welfare Act requirements, cities take different and Companion Animal Welfare Act. approaches in how they regulate farm animals in their communities. Some cities will only allow farm animals in certain zoning districts, such as land zoned for agricultural uses. Other cities take a different approach and allow some farm animals anywhere in the city as long as the requirements in the ordinances are met, such as having a lot over a specified size. It is important to be clear what animals the ordinance covers and to provide clear definitions. 1. Farm animals at large Minn. stat. § 346.16. Minn. If any person herds cattle, horses, asses, mules, sheep, swine, or goats on Stat. § 61.09. land over the protest of the land owner, the animals are considered to be Stewart 1,. Frisch, 381 running at large. Court opinions have determined that for the purposes of "at d 1 (Minn. Ct. App. 1986). large," this means that the animals are not restrained or confined. Any person who knowingly allows animals to run at large is liable for damage caused. 2. Chickens Like other animals, cities take different approaches for regulating chickens. Some cities include chickens in the same regulations that apply to other farm animals or livestock. Other cities have ordinances that allow chickens in the city under certain circumstances. However the city decides to regulate chickens, it is important to be clear about the regulations. League of Minnesota Cities Information Memo: 11/29/2010 Animal Regulation in Cities Page 31 RELEVANT LINKS: State r. Nelson, 499 N.w.2d A Minnesota court has found that, unless specifically included in the 512, 514 (Minn. Ct. App. 1993). definition, chickens and roosters do not fall under the regulation of ordinances that reference livestock. If the city would like to include chickens in this category, it may do so by defining the term to include chickens, poultry, fowl, or other similar descriptions. The bottom line here is that if the city wants to regulate chickens, it should make sure that chickens are covered by the ordinance. "Urban chickens," also called "city chickens," are becoming a more common issue in cities across the state and country. The urban chicken "movement" is often linked to the increased desire for people to be closer to their food sources. Urban chickens allow people to raise chickens at their homes to have access to fresh eggs on a regular basis. This is the small-scale keeping of chickens and is much different than a business that raises hens for eggs and meat. Those sorts of businesses are regulated differently than residents who want to keep a few chickens in their backyards. "Health risks associated with There are no state laws that address urban chickens or keeping of chickens wising chickens," Centers for Disease Control and in cities, so it is up to the city council to decide if it wants to regulate the Prevention. keeping of chickens. The city may choose to allow, allow if a permit is obtained from the city, or prohibit urban chickens. The city can do this in a Contact the LMC Research number of ways, including regulation under the general animal or farm Department for sample ordinances. animal ordinance or by passing an ordinance specific to keeping chickens. If the city does choose to regulate the keeping of urban chickens, some common requirements are: • Allowing only hens (no roosters). • Limiting the number of hens allowed. • Maintaining coops or runs in a sanitary and humane condition. • Keeping chickens contained or under control at all times. • Locating coops a certain distance from property lines and other structures like houses. 3. Farm animals as pets It is not uncommon for a resident to want to keep a farm animal, such as a miniature horse or potbelly pig, as a pet. Again, cities approach this issue in different ways. Some city ordinances would not allow for these animals as pets because the ordinance includes them as farm animals and prohibits them in residentially zoned areas. Other cities may allow for these types of animals by specific ordinance provisions, sometimes requiring a permit from the city. Given that these animals have been gaining in popularity, it is a good idea for the city to consider the issue and have an ordinance in place. League of Minnesota Cities Information Memo: 11/29/2010 Animal Regulation in Cities Page 32 By Betsy Wieland, Extension Educator Nora Nolden, Intern As people are becoming more and more interested in knowing where their food comes from, the trend of raising backyard chickens is growing. Raising backyard chickens can be a rewarding experience and a great way to teach kids about nature, agriculture, and responsibility of caring for animals. Since most backyard chickens are raised for laying and not for meat, this factsheet will focus on layers. Figure 1. New Hampsire Red and Buff Orpington hens There is a wide a variety of chicken breeds, developed for egg production, meat production, and/or good looks. While many breeds are adaptable to a backyard setting, certain breeds are better than others for backyard conditions. Medium to large breeds are good for cold winters. A mellow temperament and good egg laying are also pluses. If you see reference to a bantam bird, that is a small version of any particular breed. It will look the same, but be smaller. Here are a few examples of great, mellow breeds for the backyard. 'Table 1. Popular Backyard .• Rhode Island Red Ameraucana • Hens weigh about 6.5 • Many different lbs color varieties • Lay brown eggs • Lay green eggs • Dark red feathers • Great long-term • Dual purpose breed, egg production but most often used • Dual purpose for laying breed • Hardy breed that does • Tolerant to all well in small flocks climates • Easy to handle Wyandotte Orpington • Hens weigh about 6.5 • Hens weigh lbs about 8 lbs • Lay brown eggs • A larger dual • Dual purpose breed purpose breed • Great for small flocks • Lay brown eggs and rugged conditions • Many color • "Curvy" shape, good varieties disposition • Heavy size is • Many color varieties ideal for cold weather DIET Chickens are omnivores. They eat grains, fruits, and vegetables as well as insects. Chickens should typically be fed a prepared feed that is balanced for vitamins, minerals, and protein. A healthy laying hen diet should also contain crushed oystershell for egg production, and grit for digestion. A six pound hen will eat roughly 3 pounds of feed each week. They love fruit and vegetable scraps from the kitchen and garden, as well as bread. Scratch - cracked corn and oats are a nice treat for the chickens that does not supply all their nutritional needs, but is fine in moderation. Feed consumption may increase in the winter when burning more calories, and decrease in the heat of the summer. A critical part of a chicken's diet is continual access to clean, fresh water. This is especially true in the summer as they cool themselves by panting. Figure 2. Quality feed and clean water will help keep birds healthy and productive. HOUSING A quality coop is essential to backyard chicken production. Layers need nest boxes - one per 4-5 birds. Chickens are descended from jungle birds, which means they like to be up high, so a place for thein to roost is important. Coops must provide protection from the weather and predators. There should be a well -insulated area with a light bulb or heat lamp for the winter months as well as ventilation for fresh air. Be sure to have a minimum 3-5 square feet per bird, including outdoor space. Their main predators are raccoons, rats, owls, hawks, and cats. An enclosed space for them to stay at night is essential to their protection. Ensure that the coop is free of small holes for predators to sneak in. There is an endless variety of coop designs with just as much range in cost. Find a design that provides easy access and otherwise suits your situation. There are many books and websites with coop designs. See Figure 3 for a simple chicken coop schematic. The space should be free of unnecessary objects like woodpiles or equipment, as they attract predators.

Figure 3. Simple coop design for up to 16 hens from Storey's Guide to Raising Chickens DAILY CARE Chickens need to be fed and water changed daily. They need to be let out of the coop each morning and put into the coop at dusk each night to protect them from predators. Eggs should be picked up twice a day. The coop and pen should be cleaned out weekly to maintain sanitation and odor control. Healthy birds will be active and alert with bright eyes. They will be moving around - pecking, scratching, and dusting - except on hot days when they will find shade. Chickens that are healthy and active will also talk and sing quietly throughout the day. As far as laying and eating habits, each chicken is different, so monitor each chicken to get a feel for her normal production and consumption. Healthy droppings will be firm and grayish brown, with white urine salts. Roughly every tenth dropping is somewhat foamy, smellier than usual, and light brown. Chickens raised in backyard settings generally stay healthy and are not easily susceptible to diseases. The easiest way to find disease in chickens is to know what a healthy bird looks like. When a chicken isn't acting normal, for instance if she doesn't run to the food as usual or she wheezes or sneezes, start investigating. Table 2 lists some possible causes of illness to chickens. Table 2. Causes of Disease INFECTIOUS (INVASION BY ANOTHER ORGANISM) NONINFECTIOUS (NONBIOLOGICAL IN ORIGIN) BACTERIA CHEMICAL POISONING MOLD AND FUNGI HEREDITARY DEFECTS PARASITES NUTRITIONAL DEFICIENCIES VIRUSES UNKNOWN CAUSES Credit: Storey's Guide to Raising Chickens by Gail Damerow SANITATION An important element to bird health is sanitation. In order to maintain a clean, healthy environment, the coop and outdoor area should be cleaned out weekly or as needed to control manure and odor build up. Feeders and waterers should be regularly cleaned and disinfected. Dust baths should be available, as they help control mites. It is important that at least once a year, usually in the spring, a thorough cleaning is done on the coop and yard. Also cleaning before introducing new birds to the area will limit the spread of disease. A fall cleaning is also helpful with mite control over winter. During this cleaning, safety precautions must be taken in dealing with dust. Wear a dust mask and mist the walls surrounding the area to control dust movement. Inhalation of dried chicken manure can be harmful to humans. Rake and clean out the yard. All feeders should be removed and bedding completely cleared out. It is important to remove dust and cobwebs from corners of the coop. The inside of the coop needs to be disinfected - including troughs, perches and nests. To disinfect, use one -tablespoon chlorine bleach to one gallon boiling water. MANURE MANAGEMENT Chicken manure is made up of feed residue, intestinal bacteria, digestive juices, mineral by-products from metabolic processes, and water. In fact, 85% of chicken droppings, by weight, is water. This leads to issues with humidity and odor. So what are the options for managing manure? One option is to complete thorough cleanings of the coop more than once a year. This will control the odor and fly populations. Another option is to pasture the chickens. Moveable shelters are a valuable tool for pasturing chickens and reducing cleaning time. Simply move the location of the house when manure begins to build up. It offers new space for chickens to graze and peck, and free fertilizer for the lawn! A third option is composting. Composting can be done right in the chickens' bedding. To start this process, lay down about 4 inches of bedding. Regularly stir up the bedding to prevent clumping, and add fresh bedding until it is 10 inches deep by winter. Continue this process until the bedding gets 12 to 15 inches deep. At this depth, composting actively begins and after 6 months can kill harmful bacteria. This composting releases heat, which keeps chickens warm in cooler months and attracts natural fly predators. To maintain the compost, it must be stirred regularly to prevent crusting. The same process can be done outside of the coop in a separate bin. EGG PRODUCTION Hens begin laying at around six months of age and can continue for 5-10 years, with peak production occuring in the first 2 years. They will lay roughly 6 eggs each week. Egg production drops each year when the hens molt (replace their feathers in the early fall) and as daylight hours are lost. Hens need at least 12- 14 hours of light each day to continue laying eggs. A regular hghtbulb is sufficient to supply this light. REGULATIONS There are several regulations that you may encounter with chicken ownership. Raising chickens in the backyard may require a permit from your city, and each has different requirements and restrictions. It is not legal in some cities to keep poultry. Some cities may also limit the number of animals you can keep. If you begin selling eggs or meat, you will encounter additional regulations. The Minnesota Department of Agriculture Dairy and Food Inspection Division manages and enforces these. Contact them for UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA I EXTENSION information regarding these rules at 651-201- 6027. PURCHASING BIRDS There are several places to purchase chickens. Table 4 lists major chicken hatcheries and their websites. There are also many individuals breeding and selling poultry. Local farm supply stores may also order them for you.

You've embarked on a fun an exciting journey! BYC (BackYardChickens) is FULL of great information. If your question isn't answered in the main pages of the site then we promise there is an answer on our chicken forum. Below are the absolute basics of raising chickens. For more detailed information please explore the rest of the site and join our forum. Why Raise Chickens? Here are a few of the most frequently expressed reasons people raise chickens: • Easy and inexpensive to maintain (when compared to most other pets) Eggs that are fresh, great -tasting & nutritious Chemical -free bug and weed control • Manufacture the worlds best fertilizer Fun & friendly pets with personality (yes, you read that right) Determine if you can legally own / raise backyard chickens: Search local chicken laws & ordinances • Read comments in our forum devoted to chicken laws & ordinances. Where To Get Chicks: • Local Feed Stores often carry a variety of day old chicks around Spring Hatch chicks from eggs - HomeMade Chicken Incubators Search our forum for members listing hatching eggs or chickens for sale. Check our list of chicken supplies. How To Care For A Chick - First 60 Days: Young Chick Brooder- Can be as simple as a sturdy cardboard box or a small animal cage like one you'd use for rabbits. • Flooring - Pine shavings work best. You can also use corn cob bedding. Try to stay clear of newspaper since it doesn't absorb well and can be slippery. • Temperature - 90 to 100 deg. for the first week, decrease 5 deg. per week. A 100 watt bulb pointing in one corner (not the whole brooder) works well. • Food & water - chick crumbles / starter & a chick waterer Play time - Play with your chicks when young to gel the use to being around people. Outside time - Section off an area in your yard where the chicks can explore, scratch, etc. Make sure you can catch them when it's time to come in. • More details: Article: How To Raise Baby Chicks - Forum Section: Raising Chicks Chicken Care After First 60 Days, General Chicken Care: • Chicken Coops - Once feathered out you'll want to move your chickens into a chicken coop! Rule of thumb is about 2-3 square feet per chicken inside the henhouse and 4-5 sq/ft per chicken in an outside run. Keep local predators in mind and make a safe home for your flock! Flooring - Pine shavings work best. You can even try the deep litter method for even less maintenance. Food & water - Most people go with chicken layer feed / pellets. You can even make a homemade chicken feeder / waterer • Treats - Vegetables, bread, bugs, chicken scratch (cracked corn, milo, wheal) http://www.backyardchickens.com/a/how-to-raise-backyard-chickens-in-your-city-the-basi... 1/10/2013 Page 1 of 5 Home I Learning Center Forum , Coops Breeds Reviews Sponsors Store Search Discussions, Reviews, Articles, & morel Search username or email ((password Login Advanced Search Forgot Pasmord?

Pullets have been sexed by the hatchery and are usually sexed 90% accurately. Most hatcheries or feed stores will refund your money or buy back the cockerels which exceed 10%. Straight run chicks are usually less expensive, but they are 50% pullets and 50% cockerels (more or less). 2.When can my chicks go outside? You should wait until they are fully feathered to put them outside -Depending on the temperature, they can go outside when they are from 5 to 12 weeks old. Will racoons hurt my chickens? Yes. Racoons are one of the most common predators of chickens. They will attack mainly at night, and can tear a bird apart very quickly. They frequently will kill more than one. Good secure coops will help to protect your flock from racoons 1.How many eggs will my hens lay? On the average, 3 hens will give you 2 eggs a day. That means to get a dozen eggs a day, you would need 18 hens. 2.Should I wash the eggs my hens lay? This argument rages forever -I wash mine with a scrubby sponge and cold water when I'm ready to eat them. Some people use anti -bac soap, others claim you are washing off the bloom and letting bacterian INTO the egg by doing that. I like a nice dean egg when I'm going to cook it or give it to someone. 3.What is the difference between a bantam egg and a regular egg? A bantam egg is smaller. Nutritionally there is no difference 4- How long do chickens lay eggs? Chicken can lay eggs into their teens, although they sometimes stop earlier 5.When will my hens start to lay eggs? Most hens start to lay around 4-6 months of age, more or less. However, for various reasons (time of year, temperature, etc.) they may wait until the next Spring to start laying eggs. 6.How do you tell what color eggs a hen will lay? You can tell by the color of the earlobes in general. A white lobed hen will lay white eggs, while a red lobed hen will lay brown eggs.The exception to this would be the Easter Egger, Ameraucana, and Araucana breeds. They will lay eggs in Colors ranging from khaki green to sky blue, to pink tinted, to occasionally lavender tinted. they will usually have red ear lobes. Be a part of the community. JOIN NOW It's free, join today! Top Contributors support Nifty -Chicken Twhere does the egg come from, and how does the shell harden or form around the egg? After the yolk is formed in the hen's nolmmommmL- single ovary, the yolk drops into the body cavity. From there it goes into the infundibulum, or funnel. It then starts it on its way down the oviduct. The oviduct is more than 2 feet long and is lined with glands that secrete the materials for the albumen (egg white), shell membranes, and shell. The egg color pigment is added in the last stages of this process. It takes twenty-four hours or more Sponsored View all sponsors from the time the yolk is released until the completed egg is laid.

A soft or even no -shelled egg is something that You want to provide the best happens occasionally in even healthy hens. It's generally no cause for concern, unless there is other sign of illness or it's a regular care possible for your occurance.There's no need to separate your hen. What you may want to consider is adding some calcium to the diet if you haven't poultry, and nutritious poultry already. This can be given in the form of ground oyster shells, or other calcium suppliments. feed is key. Choose NatureWiise®I a Learn morel 1.What is a broody hen? A broody hen is a hen who is trying to hatch out eggs by sitting on them all day and all night, only taking breaks once a day to eat, drink, and defecate. Tags 2.How long does it take to hatch an egg? About 21 days. 3.Which is better, natural or artificial incubation? The advantages of natural incubation (i.e. a broody hen) are that the hen does all the work for you and she will probably hatch out a high percentage of the eggs. The disadvantages are that you Can only fit a certain amount of eggs under a broody hen, you Can never tell when a hen will go broody, and you can't be sure her chicks will be tame. The advantages of artificial incubation (i.e. an incubator) are that you can incubate a large number of eggs, you can incubate whenever you want, and since you will be raising the chicks yourself, you can make sure to lame them. The disadvantages of artificial incubation are that it takes effort and worry on your part, the percentage of eggs that hatch will probably be lower than natural incubation, and you will inevitably have problems with temperature and humidity that could damage the chicks - 1. How hicks.1.How tall should the side fences be on the chicken yard? Is seven feet sufficient? Six feet is a common level for poultry fencing. Seven feet would be sufficient in most cases. There have been cases of chickens flying out even at that level, however. Chickens can be kept contained in their pens as well as protected from overhead predators by covering the pens with some form of netting.A Common, lightweight, and easy to use netting is deer netting available in most large home improvement stores as well as hardware stores. 2.What is the best material to spread on the coop floor? Pine shavings (or similar)work very well. Straw is also ok, but has spaces inside which can harbor mites and other pests. (?) Alphabetical Article List AIIABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSI http://www.backyardchickens.com/a/chicken-fags-the-fiequent-asked-questions-of-raising-... 1/10/2013 3.How much space do I need in my chicken house and run? Inside a minimum of 2 square feet of floor space. Outside, a minimum of 10 square feet in the run per bird (some say 4 sq. ft., but that's only 2x2, and I personally think that's restrictive). 4.Can a 6x8 garden shed be used as a chicken coop? What is a nesting box? Are they necessary? A standard garden shed can be converted nicely into a coop. -you want to provide about 4 square feet per bird, so the size will shelter about 12-14 birds easily. You want to ensure that it is draft free and secure from predators, and has adequate ventilation. Heat and insulation needs vary based on location and dimate.An example of nesting box design can be found here: http://w%%w.backyardchickens.com/coops/nestingbox.html 5.Will painting the interior of the coop cause any health risk to the hens? If the paint is nontoxic, and well dried, with good ventilation, it should cause no harm to the hens. 6.Could deer netting be used to fence my chickens in during the day? Will it be effective for keeping them out of the garden? The deer netting will keep the chickens in.. Another way to address this concern is to put the deer netting around the garden. This way you can use permanent support such as t -posts or wooden fence posts to support it. 1.What should I use for perches? Wooden perches should be 2 in diameter for regular sized chickens and 1 for bantams. Plastic or metal is too smooth for the chicken to grasp. You can also use branches for a more natural setting. Note: in cold climates, people use flat 2x4s for perches. That makes the chicken sit on its feet, keeping them warm. 2. How much roosting space do I need on the perches? You will need a minimum of 8 of perch space for each chicken. 3. How high should my perches be? The lowest perch should be 18-24 off the ground. There can be multiple perches - chickens will jump up from perch to perch. Some people use a leaning ladder perch arrangement. 4.How many nest boxes do I need? Generally, one box for every 4 hens. 5.How big should my nest boxes be? For larger breeds, a box 12 high, 12 deep and 14 high is fine. 6.How far off the ground should I place my nest boxes? 18 to 24 is a good height. 1.What is the best breed for laying eggs? Leghoms, Rhode Island Reds, Australorps and Orpingtons are all very productive breeds 2. What breed should I get? Decide what you want from your chickens. If you want them for eggs, you should get a breed that lays a lot of eggs. If you want them for meat, you should get a breed that grows heavy at a young age. If you want them for pets, you should get a breed that is calm and easy to handle. More information is available from the Links Page. 3.What is the difference between a bantam and a regular chicken? A bantam is a miniature chicken, usually about 1/4 to 1/2 the size of a regular chiken 4 -What is the difference between a cockerel and a pullet? A cockerel is a young rooster. A pullet is a young hen 1. What should I feed my chickens? Starter ration until they are 8 weeks old, grower ration until they are 18 weeks old, then layer ration; or combination starter -grower until they are 18 weeks, then layer ration. It is a good idea to supplement the layer ration with ground oyster shell. Oyster shell helps keep eggshells thick. Can I feed my chickens treats? Yes. Scratch is a good treat for chickens. Chickens like many things: cooked spaghetti, dean vegetable peels, fruit, cereal, meal worms, bugs, and snails. Avoid strong tasting foods like onions and garlic; some sources say this makes their eggs taste funny 2.What is scratch? Scratch is a cracked corn and wheat mix for chickens. It is available at most feed stroes 3. Should chicks be fed raw oatmeal? Young chicks can be fed raw oatmeal as long as there is sufficient grit added to their diet. Without grit, chicks will be unable to obtain the nutritive value of the oatmeal. 1. How do roosters mate with hens? The sex organ of a rooster is located intemally, inside the Cloaca, which is the opening where the feces comes out, and in the hen, the eggs. When mating, the rooster's organ is extruded (comes out) in order to place the sperm in the cloaca of the hen.rooster's organ is extruded (comes out) in order to place the sperm in the cloaca of the hen. The rooster mounts the hen, holding on with his beak to her head or neck feathers, in order to be in the proper position for fertilization to occu 2. 1 have two roosters. One was the alpha but has been challenged by the other. Can they live in peace or must one go? You will not be able to make them be friends. They may work out the new positions themselves and the pecking might subside. If not you may have to find a way to let them out alternate days with the hens. A product called Biu Kole, sold in most lack stores for cuts on horses, is good to put on the injured comb to discourage more pecking and help it heal. Use a Q-tip to apply it, careful to not get it in the eyes. 3. Do roosters need to be separated from each other when they are in with pullets? If so, at what age? Roosters that grow up together generally get along and may not need to be separated. Even if one is bantam and one is a standard they could live in harmony especially if they have a large area. It is individual however and can change with age so always keep an eye out. 4. Will my hens lay eggs if I don't have a rooster? Yes. A hen only needs a rooster in order to lay fertile eggs that could hatch 5. How many roosters do I need for my chickens? One rooster for every 8-12 hens will probably produce fertile eggs. 6. When and how can I tell if a chicken is a rooster? It is VERY difficult to tell mate from female at an early age. Depending on the breed, cockerels (males) develop larger combs and wattles earlier than pullets (females) and will start trying to crow at 6 to 10 weeks (we had one start to crow at 16 weeks - it's not a precise science, sorry!) Cockerels tend to bigger and/or taller than the pullets. You may also observe more aggressive rooster behaviors, like play fighting, hassling, mounting and such.

He could be announcing his territory, or letting the hens know he's there. It can also be a challenge to another rooster. Why they crow when they crow, only the rooster knows for sure... 1. Why aren't my chickens laying? 1) they might be too young 2) they might be too old 3) if they look sick, an illness may have caused them to stop laying 4) chickens frequently stop laying while they are molting and 5) they might just need a break! 2. My hen chickens are laying thin -shelled eggs. What do I do? Try giving them oyster shells - the calcium helps keep the shells thick and strong 3. My young hen lays soft and misshapen eggs. Is this a problem? When they start laying eggs their young systems will produce eggs that are softshell, irregular shaped, real large, real small, etc. It takes a while for their reproductive system to get the complete hang of it. 4. My chickens are eating their own eggs. What should I do? Usually, egg -eating is due to a need for more calcium. Supplement with crushed oyster shells (available at feed stores). In a pinch, crush up regular chickens eggs and supplement with that (although that may encourage them to peck at eggs). For occasional stubborn hen who has just decided she likes the taste of eggs, you may have to try a nest box that allows the eggs to roll out of reach. 6. What is coccidiosis? A protozoa in the droppings, easily spread from chick to chick. Cocci can be prevented with medicated feed. Older chickens can be treated with Corrid or Albon. Usually readily available at most feed stores.Usually readily available at most feed stores. Cleaning the feeder and waterer at least daily is an important step in the prevention and treatment. 6. Is it all right to clip a chicken's toe nail ? It is alright to clip a chicken's toenails.. You need to be careful not to go too far up into the nail, or it may cause pain and bleeding.A dog toenail clipper is a useful tool for this. 7. Is there a salve to put on the hens backs to heal and prevent the rooster's plucking? Can I snip the tip of His beak to make it more sensitive? You can put neosporin on the hen's back if there's any broken skin.. You can also use blucote on it to reduce the chances of picking. It turns the skin dark and is therefore less attractive to any pickers.Trimming the beak is an option if he's picking with it. It will not make it more sensitive. It will make it shorter so he cannot get a good grip on feathers. However the rooster damage may come from the toenails, rather than the beak. Feather loss on hens is very common. 8. One of my hens has a protrusion ouside her vent. What can cause this and do I need to take her to the vet? What you're describing is a prolapsed vent. This can happen when a hen strains too hard to lay an egg, or the egg is so big it causes some damage to the vent as it is laid. It's fairly common.What to do for it is to lubricate the vent gently with preparation h cream, or any of the hemorrhoidal creams and using a finger, gently push the vent back inside. The cream will then need to be applied twice a day till the vent is healed. It may help to keep the hen in a dark place to discourage laying while the healing takes place. The hen will need to be watched in the future, in case of re-occurance. Rapid treatment is necessary not just to aid healing, but to prevent the other birds from picking the exposed tissue. 1. How can I prevent frostbite? using 2 x 4 roosts, laid flat, make the chickens roost on their feet, which will keep them warm. For combs and wattles, some vaseline will help prevent frostbite from happening. For VERY extreme conditions, heat the coop with a ceramic or red -bulb healing light. 2. It's been extremely cold in the northeast. My rooster now has blackness on his comb with yellow blisters. What this is and how can I treat it! Sounds like frostbite. Chickens commonly get it on the comb, wattles, or feet. It is best treated with an antibiotic ointment (like Polysporin) over the blisters and blackened areas. The blackened areas may wither and fall off if the frostbite is full thickness. Frostbite can be prevented with a thick coating of Vasaline over the comb and wattles and wide perches such that their feet are flat, like a 2x4 on side, not edge, so that their feet are warmed by the body. Reducing drafts in the coop in winter is important but do not allow the coop to be without ventilation as high humidity will increase the chances of frostbite happening. 3. What do I do if I live in a very cold climate? Insulate the coop, use heat lamps if needed, heat the waterer to keep it from freezing. 4. In colder climates, is it normal for chickens to stop laying in winter? It is normal for hens to stop or slow down laying in the winter months. The shorter days trigger this slow down, rather than the temperature.in order to keep hens laying all winter, artificial light can be used to equal 14 hours of light per day. 1. Can you wash a chicken? Yes. Show chickens are given baths often so their feathering is perfect for showing. Most people recommend Dawn dishwashing soap as it is gentle and will remove grease. Others prefer baby soap or shampoo. Chickens may have a variety of reactions to being bathed, but some seem to like it, especially silk!es. You can also blow dry them on low after you're done 2. Where can I buy egg cartons? http:/Avmv.eggcartons.com 3. What is the best way to introduce new chickens to an already established flock? Separate newcomers and established birds with a barrier (i.e., wire), so they can see each other but not directly interact for a period of 1-4 weeks. This will help keep fighting to a minimum. Always introduce them while SUPERVISED, so you can control any fighting. 4. How long do chickens usually live? Most people say up to 10 years or more if they stay healthy. We have one hen, still laying, that is five years old. 5. When meat chickens are ready for processing, can you take them somewhere to have them done or do you have to do it yourself? Yes you can take them to processors to be killed and cleaned in most areas. Contact your local Poultry Club to find out if there is someone doing that as a business near you. 6. What is the moult? The moult is an annual process in which the chickens lose and regrow their feathers. Usually chickens molt in the late summer or early fall. They may stop laying eggs while they are moulting. 7. Do chickens smell bad? No. The only time chickens will smell bad is if they are sick or their coop is not cleaned often enough 8. What can I do to get rid of snakes? Well, If you can catch them, you can put them in a pillow case for safety and then relocate them far away. Remember that snakes are territorial, and will return if they can.If you feel this will not work, then dispatching them would be your next choice. Snakes can be beneficial. They will remove vermin such as mice and rats, but will also remove chicks, small birds, and eggs. http://www.backyardchickens.com/a/chicken-faqs-the-frequent-asked-questions-of-raising-... 1/10/2013 WW -01189 Reviewed 2008 Raising Ducks Melvin L. Hamre About 22 million ducks are raised annually in the United States. Most are produced under confinement on specialized duck farms in a few commercially important duck production areas. However, many farms still raise a few ducks primarily for family use or local sale. This publication is intended for the latter group. Ducks are raised primarily for meat. Although most breeds used are relatively poor layers, the flock should be managed to save the eggs produced for food purposes or hatching. The commercial duck industry is built around the Pekin breed. Pekins reach market weight early and are fairly good egg producers, but they are poor setters and seldom raise a brood. The Rouen is a popular farm flock breed. It is slower growing than the Pekin, but it reaches the same weight over the 5 to 6 month period of feeding and foraging under farm flock conditions. Its slower growth and colored plumage make it undesirable for commercial production. The Muscovy, a breed unrelated to other domestic ducks, is also used to some extent in farm flocks. They are good foragers and make good setters. Muscovy males are much larger than the females at market age. Meat production is generally of primary importance in selecting a breed, but egg production for propagation, brooding tendency, and the white plumage that produces an attractive dressed carcass should also be considered. Keeping small, ornamental varieties of ducks, sometimes called bantam ducks, for exhibition or hobby purposes is increasing. Included in this grouping are White and Gray Calls, Black East Indias, Wood Ducks, Mandarins, and sometimes Teal. Most general poultry shows and some special bantam shows offer classes for these ducks. Brooding Ducklings Small groups of ducklings can be brooded by broody chicken hens and most breeds of ducks other than Pekin and Runner. If the ducklings aren't hatched by the broody female, place them under her at night so that she will more readily accept them. Ducklings can be brooded artificially in about the same way as baby chicks. Due to their rapid growth, ducklings will need heat a shorter period of time, and floor space requirements will increase more rapidly. Any small building or garage or barn corner can be used as a brooding area for small numbers of birds. The brooding area should be dry, reasonably well lighted and ventilated, and free from drafts. Cover the floor http://www.extension.umn.edu/distribution/livestocksystems/DI 1189.html 1/10/2013 Raising Ducks Page 2 of 4 with about 4 inches of absorbent litter material, such as wood shavings, chopped straw, or peat moss. Litter dampness is more of a problem with ducks than with chicks. Good litter management will require removal of wet spots and frequent addition of clean, dry litter. Be sure litter is free of mold. Infrared heat lamps are a convenient source of heat for brooding small numbers of birds. Use one 250 -watt lamp for 30 ducklings. Heat lamps provide radiant heat to the birds under them. Since the air isn't heated, room temperature measurement isn't so important. When using hover -type brooders, brood only half as many ducklings as the rated chick capacity. Because ducklings are larger than chicks in size, it may be necessary to raise the hover 3 to 4 inches. Have the temperature at the edge of the hover 85 to 90 degrees F when the ducklings arrive. Reduce it 5 to 10 degrees per week. Confine the birds to the heated area with a corrugated paper chick guard for the first 3 to 4 days. Watch the actions of the birds as a clue to their comfort. If they are too hot, they will move away from the heat. If too cold they may pile up and be noisy. High temperatures may result in slower feathering and growth. Supplementary heat may be needed for 5 to 6 weeks in cold weather; in summer, only 2 to 3 weeks. By 4 weeks of age, the ducklings should be feathered enough to be outdoors except in extremely cold, wet weather. In some areas attention to predator control may be necessary when the ducklings are turned out. Allow 1/2 square foot of floor space per bird during the first two weeks. Increase this to at least 1 square foot by 4 weeks. If the birds are to remain confined after the first month, provide them with at least 2 square feet of floor space. Feeding Ducklings should have feed and drinking water available when they are started under the brooder or hen. Use waterers the birds can't get into. This is especially important in the brooding area since ducklings are easily chilled when they become wet while still in the "down" stage. Pans or troughs with wire guards are satisfactory. Place waterers over low, wire -covered frames to help reduce wet litter problems. Change waterers or adjust size as birds grow. The waterer should be wide enough and deep enough for a bird to dip its bill and head. In some areas commercial suppliers have feeds formulated for duck feeding. Check with the suppliers in your vicinity. If duck feeds aren't available, start ducklings on chick starter for the first 2 to 3 weeks. Place feed for the first few days on egg case flats or other rough paper: slick -surfaced paper may cause leg injuries. After 2 to 3 weeks ducklings can be fed a pelleted chicken grower ration plus cracked corn, or other grain. Keep feed before the birds at all times and provide grower -size insoluble grit. Less feed wastage and better feed efficiency result from using crumbled or pelleted feeds. Ducks are easy to raise because they are hardy and not susceptible to many of the common poultry diseases. The use of medicated feeds isn't usually necessary. Very few additives have been approved for nutritional or medicinal use in duck feeds. Waterfowl may be more sensitive to some drugs than other poultry. Incorrect use of certain medicated feeds formulated for chickens and turkeys could harm ducklings. Small flocks of ducklings raised in the late spring with access to green feed outdoors generally have few nutritional problems. While ducks are not as good foragers as geese, they do eat some green feed and farm http://www.extension.umn.edu/distribution/livestocksystems/DI 1189.html 1/10/2013 Raising Ducks Page 3 of 4 flocks are usually allowed to run at large. Cut green feed can be supplied to the birds when they must be kept inside in bad weather. Water for swimming isn't necessary for successful duck production. Under commercial conditions, Pekin ducklings are ready for market when 7 to 9 weeks old. These birds weigh 6 to 7 pounds and have consumed 20 to 25 pounds of feed. Rouens raised under farm flock conditions may take 5 months to reach these weights. Muscovy ducks take somewhat longer. The holiday retail duck market is greatest from Thanksgiving through New Year's Day. Ducks grown for home use or limited local sales can be slaughtered any time. If ducklings are kept longer than 11 to 12 weeks, new pinfeathers begin to come out, making it difficult to pick them clean for another several weeks. Growers planning on any commercial marketings should make scheduling plans in advance with a processor or marketing organization. Breeder Flock Management Select stock from flocks hatched in April and May. Using males from early flocks will help insure their readiness for mating for the start of the following year. Choose vigorous birds with good weight, conformation, and feathering before marketing the young flock. Keep one male for each 5 to 6 females. Young birds should be selected only from families with good egg production, hatchability, and fertility records. Identification of males and females is necessary when selecting birds for breeder flocks and for exhibition. Even in breeds that have a sex -differentiated color pattern, both sexes may resemble each other in their summer plumage. Ducks and geese can be sexed by everting the vent and examining the reproductive organs (see Raising Geese, FS -1190.) This practice requires some experience and may be more easily done with day-old birds or during the breeding season. In some breeds mature males develop characteristic curled feathers at the base of the tail. After about 6 weeks of age, the sounds ducks make can be a clue to their sex. Females have a more definite sharp quack, while males have a sound which is not nearly so loud or harsh but more of a muffled sound. Birds held for breeders must be kept from becoming too fat. The breeder -developer ration fed during the holding period should contain less energy than starter and grower rations. If the grower ration is continued during the holding period, gradually restrict feed to about 70 percent of the amount fed at the start. Change to a breeder -laying ration about 1 month before egg production starts. Don't bring birds into production before 7 months of age. Feeding oystershell is optional to improve eggshell quality. Increasing day length with lighting stimulates egg production. Provide a 14 -hour day 3 weeks before the desired egg production date. The flock should be laying at a high rate of production within 5 to 6 weeks. Meat -type breeds should remain above 50 percent production for about 5 months. Provide breeders with a clean, dry, well -ventilated shed or house. Allow 5 to 6 feet of floor space per bird. Birds are often confined at night to get a maximum number of eggs and then allowed daytime access to the yard. Provide floor level nest boxes. Most eggs are laid in early morning. Gather eggs about 7 a.m. and let the birds out of the house. If some birds stay on the nests, a second collection can be made later in the day. Clean, dry litter and nesting material will help produce clean eggs. Soiled eggs should be cleaned soon after gathering. They should be washed in warm water (at least 20 degrees F warmer than the eggs) containing an egg cleaning and sanitizing compound used according to the manufacturer's instructions. Store eggs for hatching at 55 degrees F and a relative humidity of 75 http://www.extension.umn.edu/distribution/livestocksystems/Dll 1891tm1 1/10/2013 Raising Ducks Page 4 of 4 percent. Eggs stored longer than 2 weeks may decline in hatchability. If stored more than a week, turn eggs daily to prevent yolks from sticking to shells. Incubation Muscovy ducks require 35 days of incubation; eggs of other domestic duck breeds require 28 days. A chicken hen or female duck can set on 9 to 11 duck eggs. Place the nest where it won't be disturbed during the incubation period and provide a convenient source of feed and water. The nest should be checked at hatching time. Remove early hatching ducklings as soon as they hatch and place them under a brooder or heat lamp. This may prevent the hen from leaving the nest before completion of hatch or trampling some of the young if she becomes restless. When using an incubator for duck eggs, follow the manufacturer's instructions for the machine being used. Turn the eggs 3 to 5 times daily until 3 days before they hatch. Some growers try to maintain a slightly higher incubator humidity for duck eggs than chicken eggs, especially during the hatching time. Sprinkling duck eggs with lukewarm water twice a week up to the 25th day has been helpful in some instances; others have had good success without sprinkling. Keep track of any modifications you make in your incubation procedures so you can evaluate them properly and adopt those that are most likely to increase the success of your operation. Melvin L.

The coop in summertime The chickens in the compost Run with feeder and waterer I began building my coop about five years ago after extensive research into backyard chicken -keeping. I settled on a double coop with common run, which allows me to conveniently separate adults from chicks. The coop took me one year to build in my spare time, and I have about $3200 invested in materials and equipment. The 9x13 run is founded on a triple -course of railroad ties, allowing me to use the deep -litter method of manure control. The significantly reduces work and smell, and provides excellent compost for our vegetable garden. I need to change the litter in the run once a year, and add more litter material as needed. Also located in the run are a rodent -proof feeder and a 5 -gallon bucket waterer. The coops are about 4x8 each, and also use the deep litter method. I need to change the coop's litter every few months. Coops are best designed at a human scale to facilitate efficient cleaning. I designed all doors extra -wide for easy access for cleaning and maintenance. Also, note the triangular windows at the top of each coop. These are ventilation windows. Chicken aspirate a lot of moisture, and this must be allowed to disperse if the birds are to remain healthy, especially in winter. I utilize a three bin compost system designed to work with the chickens. The first year you throw in your kitchen scraps, which the chickens pick through. You can also add their old litter. The second year, this continues to break down, and the chickens continue to scratch and aerate the pile. The third year you use the finished compost. I can say from the experience that the system produces remarkably effective compost. I currently have 24 hens, although an ideal winter flock size would be 15-18 birds for my coop size. Year round the coop gets about two dozen regular visitors who stop by the see the birds, talk chickens, and even donate their kitchen scraps as treats for the flock. As a citizen with an investment in the topic, I believe chickens foster a sense of community and attract progressive, engaged young citizens to a neighborhood. I would like to see the Council continue the current liberal approach to chicken raising, and deal with problems and complaints via the nuisance ordinances as needed. Fun Chicken Facts The average chicken has about 8500 feathers Chickens egg production depends upon light, not temperature. In order to lay throughout the winter, I keep a light on a timer in the coop to provide the optimal 14 hours of daylight for egg production Chickens bred for a winter climate can withstand temperatures down to 20 degrees below zero The combs on a chicken's head are used to regulate it's body temperature The best commercial breeds of chickens will lay 325 eggs per year. Most heirloom, dual-purpose farm breeds will lay 200-250 per year According to Mother Earth News, compared to a supermarket egg, free- range eggs contain: 1/3 less cholesterol 1/4 less saturated fat 2/3 more vitamin A 2 times more omega-3 fatty acids 3 times more vitamin E 7 times more beta carotene The chicken was domesticated about 7,000 years ago from the Southeast Asian Jungle Fowl. Today there are at least 400 distinct breeds worldwide Prepared by Matthew Koncar, 1736 Malvern St 651-645-5918 or mjkoncar@yahoo.com
