This is a totally off topic, but do any of your chicken raisers also maintain honey hives? The Hubster and I are looking at doing hives but have no idea if there are any associations or clubs here in the North Country part of NY... I am located in Evans Mills
Poco: It wasnt the highway... it was along route 37 here, they use troopers for everything ..lol
oh my gosh that baby face is adorable!!!
Good to see you still on here.. I was going along a list of the folks I knew from days gone bye and see many of them have not posted in quite some time...
My sentiments exactly, the whole time we have lived here, had no problems and no issues of losing our flock to any predators.. Then we have new neighbors that moved in down the road to the east of us and sure as crap lost half my laying flock to their husky... I kept wondering why my chikens...
oh yes they did, the accident occured around 9:30 pm and by the time all was said and done it was after midnight when we got home... Jason, Austin and a friend of Jasons brought the buck home and both my men folk stayed up till about 330am dressing the beast.
This sounds like my story here, just a week ago Friday I had a 8 point cross paths with my vehicle and it not only lost its life but it made my vehicle a total loss too. I was shocked to know that NY Troopers keep tags on hand to allow us to tag "fresh Road Kill" but sure enough they do. So as I...
Howdy Doo to Yall too..
Although I admit i dont recognize quite a few of yall on the board.. but then again my fault for going nearly a year without swinging in to say hello to all my okies. Hello to all the Old folks I used to know that may still be on here, and Howdy to all the new to me...
Been a long busy summer.... hope everyone is well.... we have been busy culling the flock from the year old roosters that are way to sexually aggressive on the hens.... so peace is being restored to the barn yard... anyone experience this with their chickens? This is a first for us in over 5...
Meant to add in my last post if the chickenstock get together is open to all? Hubster and I would like to meet n get to know the folks of NY chicken lover thread. Most our friends here in the north country are dairy so it be nice to talk chicken with others.
Beautiful wolf.... and am sorry for the loss of such a beloved member of your family.
OK moving forward... I have been meaning to ask if there are any NY members here in the north country besides us we are evans mills area.
BTW: totally get how annoying craigslist can be.
Hey there my fellow muesky buddy... well if 11 degree temps mean a defrost than yes. Hahaha.. actually we appear to be hitting the thirties this week... so hoping it means spring will be around the corner. :)
What a great photo of the newest addition kassundra!
We were doing well all winter until about a month ago when we were dipping below in the negative teens n a few days negative 20s then the roosters started dying n then the one hen. So ready for spring.... minus the muddy aspects of it when...
Hello my fellow okies. Hope all is well for everyone in the BYC. The family and I are doing well... we only had four chickens die on us this winter. For a week now our crazy hens have been laying.... don't they know that it is still winter here in the north country? You guys all sure have some...
We are iced in for sure, and snow comes nearly every other day it seems.. Was with out power week and half ago due to an ice storm, which made it reminiscent of Oklahoma Winters.. LOL. Kids been having an enjoyable school break and been sledding on the ice.. with 15 acres that is nothing but a...
Long time no post, just thought to see how everyone is doing.. Life is so funny, Just when I think I will post more to the BYC I dont...lol Anyhow for those of you that remember me(old crew) hello for the newbies.. hello to you.. Wishing everyone a blessed 2014
