I was out this morning on my deck, which is raised up from the rest of my yard, and I saw a cat. And it didn't look like any house cat I have ever seen. It was lanky and it took long strides when it ran. I have never seen a bobcat with my own two eyes, and it happened so quickly that I can't...

I thought I'd come check in on BYC and see how you guys were handling the news. about as expected. I guess it's back to the drawing board. I am sorry about the intolerant left not accepting your intolerance. I mean that's what you guys believe in and all. If I can offer any comforting news...

thanks everyone. I was kind of thinking that too. guess I won't have to worry about them growing into roosters and trying to mate with their mom. whew!

The mother of these two chicks is a black jersey giant. The father is either a silver or golden laced polish. I am not exactly sure how old they are but I want to say 8-10 weeks. The chicks are still pretty shy so it's not real easy to get good pictures of them. If these don't...

Fair point, hemet dennis. I did not know that. The treaty seems to have been signed a long time ago... 2002? I admit, I am not too familiar with this treaty as I just learned about it with a google search.. but. I still have a hard time understanding why anyone would be so scared to think...

The WMDs weren't found because they never existed. And I think there is proof Iran is developing nuclear weapons. But last I checked they were a sovereign nation. Who are we to tell them they can't have nuclear technology? They are developing weapons to defend themselves. Preemptive attack...

So to recap you still think there are WMDs in Iraq and you think Iran is going to nuke us. I dunno, man. I think 24 hour news media, especially the more fair and balanced ones, like to make a buck off of fear and you are the unfortunate victim.

Iran poses no threat to us. We disagree from a philosophical standpoint but it's not like we're going to war. If they engage ISIS in combat we should all be happy.

Hey, everybody. Thank you very much for your responses. The mama and her babies are in my old chicken coop that has a run attached. So they are fine for now. I think I'm just going to wait and see what happens. So far the chicks seem to be doing ok, even with the bum leg. Fingers crossed...

hey, rufus. I normally just read and I don't try to get involved but I just wanted to break from that briefly to talk. you say that, Quote: I have seen this comment before. Quite a bit, actually. And I am just wondering if there is real evidence that the current administration is...

As the title states, one of my hens sneaked out of the new coop and started sleeping in my old coop. I didn't think much of it until two nights ago when I saw her wandering around at 8:00pm and thought to myself, "Wow, it's late for her to be out" ...only to find her two baby chicks she...

If you really think the president is "intentionally trying to ruin this country" you are too emotional to assess the situation in a reasonable manner.

Thank you, guys. Some more info... It happened late in the day but it was still light out because it happened in my front yard and the coop is in the back. I normally lock the coop up around 7:30pm but I didn't get home until about 9:30 this night. He put himself to roost and he did it inside...

I woke up the other morning and noticed a huge pile of feathers outside. As I got closer I realized they were feathers that belong to my turkey. I kind of freaked out and went to the coop and opened the door but there was my royal palm tom. He had feathers ripped out of him but he was not...

Did any of that really happen or did you just have one too many last night?
