    Dairy products are ONLY those products that are made from the milk of mammals. Being lactose intolerant or having dairy allergies does not prevent one from consuming eggs. The misconception arises due to the fact that eggs are located in the same refrigerated area as dairy products.

    One of the unfortunate realities of raising chickens is that there will always be more roosters than you can have or use. I have on occasion taken them to slaughter weight but with many breeds that isn't terribly cost effective. So now I cull them as newly hatched chicks. It's a sad task that...

    I know that a poorly prepared pickle does tend to perturb people.

    When I hear of the death of of an American serving our country my heart goes out to their families in thought and prayer. When that gallant soldier is related to someone I know I find it difficult to find adequate words for those who gave all. God please hold them close.

    Both Remington and Winchester offer products that will end a cat's predilection for spraying or urinating indoors. Only one treatment needed.

    Rustoleum paint works well for painting galvanized metal that has started to rust. Once the paint has thoroughly dried it won't be a problem for your birds

    Bob, my personal opinion with regard to hatching eggs with broody hens is to leave them alone. I would not even attempt to candle them because disturbing the hen can cause her to quit. I have notice that often a hen will kick eggs out of the nest or to one side where she doesn't sit on them. I...

    I may be earning my wings but where I will probably windup I'm sure the feathers will get singed.

    Stayed up until almost 2am reading David Baldacci's book "The Innocent" and yet here I am awake at 5am. Wish I knew what it is that wakes me after so little sleep. Well that's enough complaining so might as well get this day underway. I've a crossword awaiting, a sunrise to watch and...

    Today was another great day. Dropped Granny off and church and came home and cleaned the dropping boards in the large fowl coop. Pulled a few weeds in the garden and then spent some time trying to figure how I am going to harvest the tomatoes once they start ripening. The plants have gotten...

    Quiet this morning. Sitting here waiting for daylight and contemplating how wonderful it is to be able to face another day.

    The sun is still east of the horizon and we have about 45 minute to wait before it makes its appearance. When it does it not going to take long to go from warm to warmer. I'm going to spend a few moments giving thanks to Willi Haviland Carrier. With temperatures once again approaching the 100...

    I saw this and thought it was interesting but I will bet money that the woman speaking on the video doesn't own any chickens. http://news.yahoo.com/video/woman-films-interesting-encounter-wild-193000048.html

    Something that I have never done but may have to try this year is pruning tomato plants. Initial research indicates that it may be quite beneficial and result in larger fruit. Anyone ever tried it?

    What a Great morning. I wish that we'd known earlier that Hope didn't have to babysit today as I would have gone fishing. I think we will go later this evening. Got Granny up early yesterday and took her for a MRI. After sitting there for 1 1/2 hours they informed us that the couldn't get...

    Just looked at the radar map on the Weather Channel and it appears that a serious downpour should be here anon. I've got to wake Granny in a half hour, which is at least 3 hours before her normal wakeup time. She has an appointment for a MRI at 6:45. She has been experiencing quite a lot of...

    While I don't consider my chickens to be pets and know many folks that do. For a prosecutor to say that no one keeps chickens for pets is ludicrous. How would he explain the success of a company called "My Pet Chicken"?

    This mornin' is starting out a little slow. Staying up til almost 3am reading could have something to do with the lack of enthusiasm. That plus the knowledge that it is probably going to be over 100 could have a lot to do with my lethargy. I had intended to go to a customer's house to work on...
