    Crochet "Chat"

    Are you kidding me?! Crochet talk on a chicken forum? My two favorite things on one site. Heaven!

    Jim-I'll take 2 Americaunas if you don't mind. Are they pullets? DrH-I think I may end up having a Peatwo on my hands. My roo's son, Sterling, is really getting to be a nice boy. He was handled often by DD when he was a chick, so he's really friendly. He's whatever Karl was (maran cross?) and...

    You know how DH ordered 8+ Austrailian Spotted duck eggs for me? I picked them up from the PO the other day expecting maybe 10 or 12 eggs. Well I opened the box and found 18 eggs ! So awesome! I'm crossing my finger that even half hatch for me. Can't wait for baby ducks! It looks like we won't...

    Well we found the culprit that went on the killing spree here, after he killed some more. Got home yesterday from our weekly visit to the in-laws and found more dead birds. I went into the coop to see if there was any damage in there, and there was a red fox surrounded by a bunch of my smaller...

    Thanks for the info Jim . I'll have to figure something out. At least I have awhile to think about it.

    MLH-Once again, thank you so much for looking for Snowys for me. Even if you can't actually find them, it's really nice of you to check I put the incubator into lock-down last night and woke up this morning to some very loud peeping. Got up to yell at the turkeys and heard the noise coming...

    Quote: You might want to look at alternative routes. I don't know when it's supposed to be done, but the portion of Hwy 45 between Oshkosh and Hwy 10 is ripped up right now. I'm sure that there's detours that can be followed, but I would think maybe 41N to Hwy 10W in the Neenah area, then jump...

I'm so excited! TO-I talked to FM (don't know if she's talked to ya yet), and she won't be...

    Who was asking about snowy mallards? Frizz? I can ask my dh if any of his clients have them if you'd like. MLH-Yup, that was me. I would very much appreciate it if you would ask him. It would be great if he had a connection for them! Holy hotness Batman! It almost takes your breath away...

    Does anyone know where I can get a pair of Snowy Mallards? DH asked Paul at the auction about getting another pair and he said he can't and good luck finding them. I'm really missing them, so to find replacements would be great! Here's the most recent pic of what they looked like.

    Irises are some pretty hardy plants. I got a bunch from Fordmommy last summer. She has a yard full of them, and they're beautiful. All we did was put the shovel in the middle of the bunch and split it right in half. All of the plants I got from her survived. I don't remember where I put each...

    Yay! More pictures!!! And they're beautiful too. I kinda soothed my heart today. We headed out to the auction in Amherst today and came home with 5 Royal Palm turkey poults, 6 Buff Orpingtons (5 pullets, and 1 roo), and 2 super cute baby Californian bunnies. I've been wanting the Royal Palms...

    Yeah, there's bobcat in WI. I don't think they're too populated though. Hopefully it doesn't make it's way too the coop. Stinkin' predators! So any suggestions on how I dispose of all these dead birds? I couldn't do it last night, so I have to figure it out today.

    Fortunately for my neighbor, it wasn't dogs. We don't have ferals around here and our yard is completely fenced in, thanks to the neighbor dog's attack years ago. The feathers that I found in a chunk was only from one the birds. I'm thinking that the critter grabbed it and she freaked and tried...

    There's a pond 50 yards away and a river behind our neighbor's house across the road. Guess we'll be doing some trapping or something. I'm thinking of setting out a trap with one of the dead birds in it and relocate the security camera for our house and aim it at the trap. You've been a great...
