Honestly, I am not expecting anything. My main goal is for them to have a system in place for when animals come in.
I really can't stand my postal carrier though. I haven't seen him yet, but it may not be pretty when I do. I am the kind of person who handles things in two ways. One is that...
Good news though! Today, they called when my 5 little EE's showed up. We got them and the whole post office wanted to see the chicks.
However, we have still heard NOTHING about the first incident!
Anani is doing very well. She is the prettiest chick.
Its weird. All day I was either mad or numb. Now looking at Anani, I am just sad. There should 9 others just like her in the brooder. And 10 others too (Buff Orpington and Cherry Egger).
Y'all are right. She will probably be my favorite. Along with my Silkie with the cross beak. And my...
He showed the dead chicks to the Post Mistress and she said that she didn't blame us for being upset and that she would check into it. In other words, nothing happened.
I called the 1 800 number and issued a complaint and they are supposed to get back to me within a day.
I am also going up to...
Well, she doesn't look anything like the Ameraucana or the Cherry Egger pic. But she does look somewhat like other Ameraucanas I have had... just redder.
I am thinking she is Ameraucana... but I am not sure what a Cherry Egger chick looks like. I know she is not Buff Orpington, because they were yellow. Whichever she is, she is fluffy and darling.
Thanks y'all. The lone chick is such a tuff little thing. She is in the brooder and has been eating and drinking and doing just great.
Now she needs a special name!
The lone chick is standing up in the bator and I am going to put him in the brooder soon. I have another brooder with chicks that are about a week ot so old. I am thinking of putting some of the smaller chicks with this one so she won't be alone. Do you think that would work?
If it was just me, I could have slept through it. But my husband is a light sleeper and my little inside dog is too. He would have heard and so would my dog.
Believe me, I am blaming myself for everything that I did wrong! This is my second batch of chicks. The first time, the postal...
No Blue. I didn't call because last time my postal carrier called me. So I assumed that they would this time as well. I am kicking myself for not doing that.
This is what dogs do. That is why my chickens don't free range. These are wonderful dogs... but they are DOGS. I MAY be able to train them in the future (we have not had chickens long)... but I wouldn't count on it.
KY... there is no need for belligerence. Your opinion is welcomed if not so...
You know something? I love you guys. What a feisty bunch of folks. Its ok that we don't agree. Its ok that some of you don't agree that its the post office's fault. I honestly don't mind. We live in America where people are free to say what they want and believe what they want.
I may not...
There's always one.
The postal delivery person was not scared of the dogs who were properly contained in my yard. We live in the country on a lot of acreage. The entire property is fenced. The gate was open this morning so that my mom could come in. However, my dogs were STILL on the...
Ok, I called and made a complaint at the main 800 number. I have a case number and they said that someone would call me in the next business day. I was also getting worried because I hadn't heard from my husband... scared he was in jail! Actually, he is so mild mannered and sweet, but he was...
Normally, I love the post office. I have no complaints. I think they do a really good job. It is this one particular postman that I can't stand. He has a bad attitude and is one of those passive aggressive types. The other postperson, I adore. She is our regular one... or used to be. She...
