Hello, I am Mindy and I am new to this site.

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 

So a little about myself I have 9 chickens 2 german sheps 2 cats an a bearded dragon. I love animals all kinds. I love gardening and the outdoors. I've had my chickens most of them for 5 years the newest one we have had her for 3 years we raised her from a chick the rest we got when they wer 1-2 years old. Right now I am having an issue with one of my older girls. I posted the issue in the emergency,illness, cures forme not sure if thats the right name. Out of the five years I have had chickens none have been sick or had issues.We did lose 2 chicks awhile back to some racoons. but I made changes to there area and haven't had any more problems. I hope to learn new things here an maybe help others too.

Helen: Daria, do you have to look at everything in such a negative light?

Daria: Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?
