    An Ordinance That Never Existed

    Boogety, Boogety, Boogety, Let's Burn the Racetrack, Boys!

    When Juan Pablo Montoya began racing, he probably had dreams of setting the racing world on fire. I'm sure he never dreamed he'd literally set one of the most famous racetracks in the world on fire...

    Prayers for Jeremiah

    My niece gave birth this morning. Baby Jeremiah is 8 weeks premature, and weighs 3 lbs. 11 oz. Both mommy and baby are doing about as well as can be expected. He is breathing on his own, which is great news, but he is expected to stay in the hospital until mid April (his approximate due date)...

    Hatching Day Disaster

    It's been one of those days. My mama Serama had been sitting on five eggs for nearly three weeks in a cage in the workshop. Yesterday afternoon, I noticed that she had one cheepy under her. I debated bringing it in the house, but I really wanted to let her raise this clutch, so I left it with...

    Sexlink Wackbirds - I mean - Backwards?

    Okay, I think I "get" the usual sexlink thing, how a gold roo over silver hens gives silver cockerels and gold pullets. But what if you do it backwards, a silver roo over a gold hen? I have a Serama pair, the roo is a Birchen and the hen is Wheaten. From one clutch of six eggs, (which, at 2-3...

    My Crocheted Afghan Won Best in Show at the Fair (shameless brag!)

    I had one of those ideas - you know the kind - where you just have to see if it will work? This thing is made up of afghan stitch, done with an afghan hook, and then the pattern is cross-stitched on top. I had seen another pattern where the theme was woven ribbons, but I wanted to try it with a...

    Looking for Sultans

    Lost our only Sultan to a particularly creative raccoon last night. DD is heartbroken - he was one of her favorites. Bantam or LF, adults, chicks, or even hatching eggs - just looking for Sultans!

    My Chickens Will Sleep Better Tonight

    When this guy was just stealing cat food off the back porch, he was only a nuisance. When the chickens that roost in the rafters of the barn started disappearing, that was a whole new ballgame. That's it, critter, you're history!!

    Failure to Hatch - what happened?

    My Serama hen presented me with a total of 7 eggs, laid 2 days apart. I put them into the incubator on the day they were laid (I have a staggered hatch going on with some Cochin eggs anyway, so the timing hardly mattered). Eggs 1 - 4 pipped on their respective day 19's, though they didn't...

    Egg Eating HORSE?!! What is going on around here?

    I have two miniature horses, Blondie and Syd. For some reason, several of my free-ranging hens prefer to lay their eggs in one corner of Syd's stall. This hadn't been a problem until recently. Normally, I pull several eggs per day out of that stall, but for the last week, I haven't gotten any. I...

    Chickies *and* Eggs - Feeding the Hen?

    I had several hens that went broody all at the same time. Due to circumstances beyond my control, it wound up being an extremely long incubation period, with all of them brooding in excess of 50 days by the time the eggs that I had ordered for them hatched. I felt that such heroic efforts should...

    Just for Fun - The Broody Song from "Les Oeufs"

    I was watching Les Mis the other day, and one of the songs got stuck in my head. Somehow, the words got changed . . . . Can you hear the broody sing? Screaming the song of angry hens. It's the sound of a broody that will not be "broke" again! As she huddles on her nest, As she growls, and...

    Questions about Humidity and Broody Hens

    I have some broody hens setting on eggs that were shipped to me. I don't mean to complain, but some of those eggs have rather large air sacs. Now, I live on the coast, so we have outrageous humidity during the summertime. Normal temps this time of the year are low 90's during the days, upper...

    Call Hens not Laying?

    I have a crested call trio that I got through Eggbid last fall. When I got them, I was more interested in them as pets than as egg producers, so their ages weren't discussed. They are lovely little birds, and I would like to at least get a shot at getting some offspring from them (if you go to...

    Pekin/Call Cross?

    Hi, all! I'm a newbie with a question, something that's been puzzling me for some time. One of the local feed stores got a bunch of ducklings from a hatchery last Spring. We bought some that were supposedly Pekins. Three of them wound up looking just like our other Pekins, but there is one...
