So awesome!!

With temps reaching 97 here in East TN, my chickies got frozen watermelon today.

Does anyone know where I can get a heat pad that doesn't shut itself off? I had some abandoned kittens that I was trying to keep alive and I looked everywhere for one so they could stay warm and I couldn't find one. The longest they would stay on is 2 hrs.

I wasn't sure if they were bantams or not till I got them home because I had always heard they were small birds. They are bigger than my mix bantam roo L.B. (most things are ) but about the same size as the silkie mixes that we have so I'm thinking bantam. I don't really mind either way, I love...

It is awesome!! Love the color, purple being my fav. Looks great for no plans.

We have two White Leghorn roosters named Wilma and Betty because we thought they were hens for a long time. Once we realized they were roosters DS decided not to change their names.

Our team also lost to our cross county rivals 18-9. What a bummer

I have a mountain cur/black and tan hound mix puppy that was given to me. He is about 8wks old (the runt) and just now starting to move around a lot. I noticed the other day while he was at the barn with me (he is too little to get off the front porch steps unless someone picks him up and puts...
