Good morning!
Is there a post anywhere with instructions on incubating Guinea eggs? I've found bits and pieces regarding both wet and dry hatch, but nothing complete and lots of conflicting information.
I've hatched chicken eggs, but this will be my first try at Guineas. I really need a...
I just read the four pages of your story looking forward to a happy ending. I'm so sorry the baby didn't make it. 🥲 He/she sure had a great life while you were caring for him/her.
Mushrooms seem to be as polarizing as politics. LOL
I love mushrooms. There are so many different kinds, and they're all different. Chanterelles are my favorite, but I love different varieties for different dishes. Straw mushrooms in stir fry, black fungus in hot and sour soup, white and...
Charlie's mom looked like a chi/toy fox terrier cross. Nobody knows what the sire was. They owned the female and a male mastiff, but he wasn't the father. I'd love to get her DNA tested to find out.
Pibbles don't seem to get much love around here, but I love my two sweethearts. Sophie, left, is the sweetest dog you'll ever meet. Literally. She's turned people that don't like ANY dogs into dog lovers. I can trust her alone with baby chicks. She babysat our newborn baby goats while the...

As far as speaking ability, it gets better the bigger the bird in the pet store varieties. Parakeets are a...
I was able to see it better today (recently had surgery on both eyes) and if you watch when she turns around away from the camera, you can see the narrow (rather than bushy) tail dragging behind her. It does look to be a weasel, and that's exactly how they attack as they are carnivores with...
I only have two adults so far, a partridge hen and a white rooster. I've got 4 of their chicks in the brooder, i think two are partridge (chipmunk) and two are white. I've got a clutch of 9 in the incubator due to hatch around the 20th.
Our little hen, Chanel, is a fantastic layer. She lays...
Are you positive it wasn't a weasel? It is common for them to attack fowl and they're more predatory than squirrels. I enlarged the video on my computer screen, and all I could discern was what looked like its head popping up.
