    My fingernails are naked

    Quote: I make a similar cookie, with no peanut butter (Sorry, my recipe is thousands of miles away, so I can't compare other than that). I prefer to use the old fashioned oats (IMO, instant is only good for...umm...uhhh...other people! Yeah, that's it. Other people!). I also, at times, add...

    cocci?

    If I remember correctly, cocci is like e-coli. It lives naturally in the intestines, and isn't a problem unless it is eaten. A natural remedy is vinegar. 1 tbsp per quart of water (1/4 c per gallon) for 3 days or until symptoms are gone. I'm not sure if it kills the cocci or if it stops the...

    WHAT WOULD YOU DO?????????calling all goat owners

    I'm not a goat owner, so I don't know....but I have a thought that may work. What about a dog shock collar, the variety that has the remote. When she starts to go after another goat, she gets a zap. Don't know, just a suggestion. It's a great way to train dogs, but there might be something...

    My Buff Orpington hatched her first brood

    7 of the 12 ended up hatching. We didn't know what we were doing, but she did well. The first one hatched 13 Jan, 5 more 14 Jan, and the last one 18 Jan. Well, more accurately, the first 6 hatched sometime between our bedtime the night before and when we checked on the days mentioned...

    Married BYCers

    Quote: The other side of that is, don't take her out for expensive meals during the courtship/dating if you aren't up for it during the marriage. Be real about money. Talk about it. Talk about religion, or lack thereof. If you don't agree, chances are, it will get worse when/if kids come...

    Name this chicken! **UPDATED OP with PICTURES*** MY HAWK

    Several of our EE hens look like hawks. One more than the others due to her coloring. The tail on yours looks like a roo, though.

    Mail-order hatcheries with no minimum order requirements?

    also, if there are other people in your area, you could go in together, get chicks, meet where/dressed so you don't contaminate existing flocks, and everyone go home with the ones they wanted (hopefully). It would be easier if everyone wanted chicks that were either the same, or that look...

    I can tell she's a buff, but color doesn't help ID the breed

    She lays large white eggs, and the only thing she has in common with our buff orpington is her color...ok, gender and yummy egg laying ability as well. Well, with your advise, I went to McMurray's, and she does look like the buff minorca. I don't think I could have picked her out from their...

    I can tell she's a buff, but color doesn't help ID the breed

    [/img] This hen is one of our survivors. Her back feathers have been pulled due to too many excited roos. I was questioning her gender because of the HUGE comb, but she's definately a she!

    Things men do.....

    Well, I've heard of people being sent to get 50 ft of flight line. I was also told about a female who was sent hither and yon looking for some falopian tube. Ummm...prop wash keys to the jet (not as funny as some, since some aircraft DO have keys).

    Mating Behaviors?

    Hen'nbiddies : This is good info for me. I ordered some chicks from Ideal and they will be including some males for warmth they said. At what age can I cook up the roos I don't want? (Apologies to the chicken pet people) It depends on the breed and how much meat you want. Accoding to...
