Oh wow, almost 12! That is pretty amazing in itself, and she still lays! Very amazing. We just lost our sweet old roo a few months ago and he was 9. I got him as a 5 year old. I think he would have lived longer if the previous owner hadn't had him on layer feed his entire 5 years she had...
Yes, I raised them from chicks. They both loved to sit on my lap and to be petted until they were about 6 months old and it was also summer time, so then I'm sure hormones surged. I do have hens within their eyesight. The one that is still skeptical of me to this day started to jump and kick at...
I've definitely befriended one of my boys who loves pets and rubs, the other still gives me the stink eye and starts to puff up, but I can pet and feed him. :):) I'll definitely try to post pictures of the little fluff butts!!
We aren't planning on getting more this year, but I am so glad we get to live vicariously through my daughter's small scale hatching project at school! I am procuring 4 Cream Legbar, and 4 Jubilee Orpington eggs for them on Monday. I can't wait to see the chicks!!!! Should have a hatch date...
Awesome. Thank you for the article link. Yes, I have 2 bachelor boys. I'd prefer to keep it to just my 2! I'm sure the class would be able to find good homes for any boys that they need to. I do love roosters though. They are so entertaining to watch. I'm also in the Rooster Allies facebook...
Hi all!
My daughter's awesome special education teachers have coordinated a small scale chick hatching project just for her -to get her to talk and communicate back and forth better! She is (we are) beyond excited! We have contacted an NPIP breeder here in central Missouri and she's going to...
Thank you. I have been thinking the same thing about needing a Christian man that he looks up to. I will bring that up in prayer...if it is God's will, it will happen. Thank you, yes I have been meaning to look into the bible apps. Maybe there's one that includes explanations. Thank you for...
Thank you for that example. I am actually just starting to read parts of the bible. I have ADHD, and I have little to no understanding when I try to read anything in the bible. It's so frustrating, I just cry, but I will read it anyway. Thank you so much for your encouragement and the offer...
Thank you so much. I definitely needed this encouragement and it felt great to read this, even though I am crying...tears of joy I think to know that someone thinks he can be saved. I am definitely praying and thanking Jesus for battling for his sole. Thanks again:)
Thank you. I will definitely keep praying. I keep waking up at 3 am over the last few days, and I just say, "Jesus" and I go back to sleep. It's like something is telling me to pray throughout the day and night. Thank you for the encouragement:)
Hi all. Glad to see this thread here. Looking for a place of like-minded people in more ways than one to just be and possibly for support, and prayers. I am a believer in Jesus Christ, but my family doesn't currently attend any church. My husband has always been so leery of churches because...
Has anyone ever seen tiny holes in a chicken's wattles before? A few very small holes appeared in one of my hen's wattles a couple weeks ago. They weren't injuries and they didn't seem irritated in any way, so I'm very confused! I'm really curious to what the cause may be. I'm very tempted...
