Ooooo! I'm so jealous! I used to camp in this bitty little campground just outside of Mesick!  I loved it there. Never woke up with headaches, the air is so much cleaner! I spent a whole summer the last time, but haven't been able to camp since getting the chickens. :(

Confirmed chicken hugger  :D

Rather chilly and grey here this morning. So just sitting and drinking coffee and trying to decide what to do today.

I'm trying the black silk coffee that some of you have mentioned. 

Goofy girl dogs are "fighting" over a toilet paper tube. I think the tubes are their favourite toys.

Hey all, don't forget it is Free Comic Book Day! Check your local comic shops for participation, each person gets a free comic and any other freebies they have for the taking. Head in early :) Last year I got a neat comic but missed the really great one.

4 ISA Brown chicks, 4 Easter Egger chicks, 1 Peking duckling, 1 Indian Runner duckling, 1 Buff orp chick, 1 RIR chick, 1 SLW chick, 2 kids under 6, one overworked husband.

You can also pickle those eggs.

Hi unnamed!

Nova, love the pics. I have d'uccle eggs in the incubator, porcelein and mille, with more porcelein coming next week.

Home of the world's cutest dachshund, one crazy blue heeler, two cats,
              one fat pony, and many (but not too many!) chickens

              Can anyone tell me, how many are too many chickens?

She has a questionable temperament, and in shepherd type dogs that can be a big problem, and it is very possible she would pass that temperament on to her puppies. And there are so many dogs already in shelters and dog pounds that it is very difficult to find homes for.

I was thinking the same thing. We want to breed animals that have really good temperments and are very smart and obedient. A large dog like this that does not obey usually does not end up fairing well.   They often are rehomed a few times and then end up at the shelter.

AWWW! love.gif  Love the Russian chicks and also the Belgium D'uccle chicks.

 

I am bringing my daughter home today from College for the Summer.  Car will be loaded and my daughter will be sorry to leave her friends.

She is a wonderful 20 year old person and I am thankful.

Have a great day everyone!
