anyone here in NC breed seramas, or know of anyone?

I also recommend BHep. Hers are gorgeous!

Welcome new folks!

Wishy-washy weather...but I'm rooting for wishy. I'm wishing for spring.

Enjoy the warm today!

Good morning folks and welcome to all the new folks.....glad to meet you.

It's rather wet here too but it is melting away the last of the snow and ice.

hope everyone has a good day

Thanks everyone for all the well wishes this week about my Granny!

She was a classy lady, and things definitely won't be the same without her, but 107 years is certainly a full life to say the least! Her funeral service was today, and it was beautiful. I was suffering from an acute case of eye leakage the whole time, though!

Anyway, glad this weather has turned around! I ended up losing a couple of my smaller chicks during the bitter cold... Hopefully the Arctic will stay where it belongs now!

My menfolk put the remaining bags of stored leaves in my chicken houses on Saturday. Got 'em while my son was visiting to help clear the storm-downed trees. After all the things I've tried, leaves and pine straw are what I find work best here!

Good morning folks

I like the idea of the leaves in the chicken coops for a bedding. At
the least it gives me a place to put ALL those dang leaves and the
birds can mulch them down for me to put into a compost pile later.
I think we even have a place to store them.......great idea Hollow.
Thanks.

hope everyone has a good day

Coop Scoop...the best part is that the tannins in the leaves break down the chicken poo pretty quickly! I can put a foot of leaves in the houses in the fall, and some more mid-winter...and not have to clean it out or do anything in there until late summer! I toss scratch daily, and they are always scratching it up. I've done deep litter and weekly clean-outs and all sorts of methods and this works best for me! You've seen my set-up, so you know how many chickens are where and what kind of mess I could have.
