    Oh... I did not know that. If there were any bugs I guess they'll eat them. Are the bugs harmful if they ingest them?

    Thanks for all your responses. So far so good. I went and bought a bale of straw for the chikies, and put it all over inside their coop -so they could have plenty of places to nestle. I figure that I'll clear it out, and go back to pine chips when the weather warms back up. It seemed so nice &...

    Oh... Get this, I took my son to the doctor... My husband and I were talking about our 'rooster' situation. So, the nurse says "My neighbors have chickens. I have no idea why they have to have chickens -their rooster crows at all hours. We moved out to the country because of all the acreage...

    I'm not a chicken idiot...

    * I make the guys all sit down on the toilet. I tell them that it's not a urinal, and we don't live in a gas station. I'm trying to train my roosters not to crow...

    Oh my goodness. That parrot has some teething issues... Lol. Mine had free range of the house. He chewed up my leather Justin boots, but I scolded him, and he left my stuff alone. I potty trained him, but don't know if you can potty train a chicken (?).

We have all picked a day, and put $5.00 each in the pot. if one of us guesses right we get all the...

    I wanted a cam... So I could access It from anywhere, and see what's going on. That way I could see who all my cowers are. I have one for sure that crowed right in front of me to show off... "Look what I can do-O-O-o-O"

    I'm not a chicken idiot...

    Or am I? Lol My husband and I were both raised with chickens, and have had all kinds of birds from ducks, to parrots, and parakeets. With my Congo African Gray parrot I raised him from his hatch with no feathers, and all the hand feedings. Nail & wing clippings -etc. He was just like a baby...
