This week is dedicated to the birds! Yes, chickens dominate as Maggie shares ten essential tips she has put into to practice raising chickens in her zone 3 backyard, full of extremes. But before getting to the coop, Dave takes his favourite thing segment in an unexpected direction and Maggie gets into the holiday spirit with her nature-inspired seasonal traditions. Meanwhile a listener reaches out with a pest query that requires some careful attention, in the question of the week.
