One of my two Buff Brahma hens got eggbound and died. Our remaining hen is really frantic without a friend. We would like to buy a HEN for her friend. We don't really care about breed/breed standards as long as your hen is relatively close in size, fairly nice, and quiet like our Brahmas. We...

Bienvenido! Es casi verano, no? Que suerte tiene. Aquí, ya nevó ayer

You need an independent variable, something you can change, and dependent variables--the things manipulated/changed by the independent variable. The dependent variable depends on what happens with the independent variable. I'm guessing for sixth grade science, something with rocks would be...

I was working as a high school librarian in Virginia and had just moved from D.C. I was watching the news as I passed by the TV in our back workroom when they were talking about the first tower being hit and then watched the second fall live. I kept popping in to watch and I remember all of the...

Welcome! I spent quite a bit of time in Ayr but still had to look up ghillie!! For my fellow Yanks, "Ghillies are now often fishing guides on private properties in Scotland to take visitors on their fishing expeditions, as well as look after the general health of the river and the game-fish...

I'm in Medina (Northeast Ohio) and trying to find a home for my very sweet Buff Brahma rooster, 14 weeks old. I'd REALLY like him to go a home that isn't going to eat him (I'm a vegetarian and he's too darn nice to be dinner!!) I'm willing to drive him up to an hour away if anyone's...

My sweet boy French Fry needs a new home. He's started to crow and the neighbors are not happy (he was supposed to be a pullet!) I need him to go to a new home that will promise not to eat him! He has been raised on organic feed and free ranges in my back yard which is not treated with...

Quote: I read a great quote that was almost the same thing, "No one has ever found a cat skeleton in a tree." Put a tin of something really stinky at the bottom and the allure/stench will bring him down.

I got three Buff Brahma "pullets" from them in May and I live close enough to pick them up. Service was very good. I got three because I wanted two and figured since mortality is pretty high, I'd probably end up with two. They all lived, though! One of my three "pullets" is looking...

Well, if my German Shepherd/Akita mix had a baby with my Coonhound, it would look EXACTLY like your dog! I'll try and post pictures of them but DEFINITELY some coonhound in there in the ears and face shape and like Dr. Dolittle said, the muzzle screams shepherd. Does she bark a lot? She's a...

I just called our Mayor's office and they in turn called the police department for me. That seemed to be the quickest and easiest route since it would be the police and/or animal control who would cite you if you were in violation. They should know the law on this and it may be your easiest route!

I got a supplemental bag of sand for my run today from Home Depot and noticed that there was a big warning on the bag that it was a known carcinogen--sand, a known carcinogen. What isn't bad for you if sand can give you cancer? I'm guessing in moderation, it (DE) can't be that bad; it is one...

So I have this Buff Brahma "pullet", hatchery stock, that is 6 weeks old. I've been combing the internet trying to find information and can't so I'm turning to you guys! My question is, are feathers the only definitive way to tell sex before laying? My "girl" has a much more pinkish and...

Ours is called the Nurtury. I think it's nice-- nursery+nurture= Nurtury!

NYBoy, have a fantastic time! And yes, still a long way to go. PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS.

A book of family recipes?

Quote: ??? I thought the difference was the lack of use of pesticides in organic products? Did you not use pesticides when growing the "traditional way" as well? It was my understanding that the price is usually somewhat higher for organic products because some of the crop is sometimes lost...

Hello from Medina as well! I've got 3 1-week old Brahmas. Sorry I have no ideas about your cat, though!

This is probably only good advice if you're prepared not to have chickens if they're "illegal," but I just called our town's government office and they weren't sure either so they reseached it for me. Part of their research was to call our police department and check with them, too, so maybe...
