    Random Rambling

    Oh the love of chickens! Owning a Rooster really isn't a love/hate relationship! It truely is. While you love their appearance and the fact that they will protect your flock, they really are annoying at 3am crowing! .....and 5am....and 6am...and yep...8am... EVERY MORNING!! Needless to...

    The Coop 15

    So, since hubby owns a local Exterior Home Renovations company, he brought home some left over pieces of 4" styrofoam 'board'. Not sure of the exact name and I probably should! Anyways, he built this all in a days work and the chickens certainly don't complain! This was built and ready to go...

    ~Rachy's Chicken Blog~ Hubby kept telling me that he wanted to get chickens. I thought he was crazy. I wasn't sure where we'd keep them or even how to take care of them. I always thought that chickens weren't for us. We don't really live in the county. We are between the country and city...

    what do you feed three 2 week old chicks, how much, and how long?

    We use Dumor, but I don't like the crumbles for when the get older, I like the pellets better. Just my two cents

    Ya know. I'm not sure why you "assumed" that I wouldn't be in the swap. One should never assume something. I said I would. I am. I'm still here. I don't back out on my word. So unless you gave my 'spot' away I'd like to continue making squares. I've gotten 3 done so far and was about to sit down...

    Hardware store Horror stories....Where not to shop.

    Not chicken related, but worth a post anyhow: WALMART!!!! While I have never venting this issue here, I haven't been to a walmart in YEARS! I can't stand bad customer service, people that don't give a poop and people that don't know if you carry toilet paper or not! Come on, learn what you're...

    silkie roo fighting with my kids

    Personally, I think if you'd like to keep them then you should try positive re-enforcement type things like you would for a child. When he is being nice, pick him up and hold him. Give him treats and talk to him. Re enforce the good and hopefully the bad will stop. Hopefully. I can't make any...
