I generally avoid internet communities I guess you could say. Always see it bring out the worst in people. Lots seem to think its a free pass at saying anything no matter how hurtful. I'm kind of a private person I guess. Hope its still ok if I hang around a bit :)

Hi JJ :) wouldn't mind a few local contacts. Just always find anonymity easier ;) I've felt very overwhelmed and intimidated by all this but I'm dealing. I've only ever encountered one weasel in all my years. Guess I'm lucky. It did kill a hen but my dogs scared it into a woodpile. DH tore it...

I'll deal with them how I deal with them when I deal with them lol. And they don't all have names ;) the ones that do will die here and not by my hands unless necessary. Same as my sheep. Nothing wrong with loving my animals :) my birds leave my property all the time, dang little rule breakers...

My decision wasn't reached lightly. My husband and I had discussed. I'm not getting rid of everything I'm just cutting way way back. Going to raise only what we and our family members need. I get overly emotional sometimes, I apologize.

I'm not alone hallelujah! Lol. I can't see the sense in turning a $5 bird into anything more. Its not fair to anyone. I always enjoyed selling at fair price and had regulars who looked for me because of it. Feel sad for them especially. I took such joy in all of this. Now its over. Truly sad day.

Whoops don't know why that last post turned out goofy lol dang phone...

They never asked for anything I swear. I never knew this was an issue til now. So can a person certify their own flock? Is it a simple test?

Hi all, I have a question I'm hoping I can get some help with. How does one go about getting the testing done to sell at swaps? The swap I always went to never required it but now they've moved it too far away for me to go to. Next closest requires paperwork. I don't even know what that truly...
