Welcome!

Free to a good home. Single, white EE rooster with slate legs and an attractive red single comb is seeking a new group of ladies to protect from hawks and lead to yummy treats. Likes scratch, looking for bugs, crowing and hens who "like to have a good time." If your flock needs a good...

I'm a hospital recruiter and talk to people about health care careers several times per week. The demand for nursing, and all health care career fields, is growing. As baby boomers retire, we need competent, skilled, compassionate, hard working individuals to replace and take care of them...

Oh, where were you three months ago? I had 2 extra EE roosters that were residing at my in-laws. I had no takers around here. No one wanted them even for free. Last time time I was out to the farm and in the coop, they were gone. I'm sure they went to the coop in the sky via the chopping block.

My Buff pair is from Metzer, and while I'm more than pleased with them, I wouldn't say they are show quality. As pets they have been great. Their size is good and over all coloring is close. However, the goose has one lobe bigger than the other and the gander's bill and feet color is slightly...

I have a nook on the way. I decided to go with the nook because you can get books from several places just not B&N. Open sources, e-publish, etc.

Addicted2Quack - Those geese on your webpage are gorgeous! Especially the buff dewlaps.

Free EE rooster located in Grand Island, Nebraska. All white, blue legs, short comb. No beard. Hatched 5/7/10 from a blue egg. He's a good boy. No aggression and well mannered towards people. I've heard him warn the flock about hawks. However, I live in town and his crow is getting louder...

The duck is seeing the goose as a male competitor and trying to drive him off. They've always been in the same flock, so the duck doesn't see the size difference and the goose just thinks the ducks are flock mates, instead of "different" like he views the turkeys. The duck is showing dominance...

All the above has been excellent advice. Also, a candidate should be kind to everyone while there for the interview. From the receptionist on up, you never know who exactly you could be talking to. Years ago, we were interviewing candidates for a compensation/benefits position in my HR...

It's been a beautiful week here. Just going to warm up the next few days just in time for the State Fair.

Well, since you are from the middle of nowhere Texas, you will be ready for the middle of nowhere Nebraska. I drove through Genoa a long time ago but seam to remember that is was a pretty area, hilly, green and on a river. Columbus will be your nearest "big" town with a Wal-Mart, Menards...

My American Buff pair is from Metzer. Not show quality, but they are great pets. They are two now and doing very well. The gander has grown very large and he's impressive to look at. They are sweet (at least to me) and I've been very pleased with them over all.

I was exactly like that at her age. Her comment on "can't turn my brain off" really struck a chord with me. For me, it wasn't anxiety, or worry, or anything else bad. I had a good, stable family and no issues. I just thought all the time. I think it's a common thing in children who are...
