I try to post any pictures I can get of any animal I get pictures of that are on my land. OPPPS . my location is in the ZOO with all these animals I have around here.

Been having a problem with mites in the pen and run that's on the woods side of the barn.  Treated the chickens with Eprinex and it's getting better.

 I got these too.It's like living like the Beverly Hill Billies again.Come getcha some COONS.He was watching a pig about 20 foot from him.I caught him on the game camera.

Here's the latest.  Partitioned off the run so the little ones can play.  They were 7 wks. old on Sunday.  The White Rocks were the only ones that would come out.  The Aussies stayed inside.  May be tomorrow.

Boards are 2x8s                                        Here's a shot of Peaches and Cream

I don't have either. Do you have dogs? If so, start there. Comfortis was a life saver for us in the battle against fleas!!! We won, now we only use it once or twice a year.

I have never heard of it.  Where do you get it.  Advantage II and Frontline Plus just doesn't work that well any more.  I have cats, dogs and horses, thank god horses don't get fleas.  LOL

Anyone near me with Faverolles of any sort?  Someone I know wants some..  would prefer chicks but will take eggs too :)  Just don't want them to travel far
