    Ooh, congrats!!! That's so exciting. :) We just had a little girl in July. Are you starting to prepare the nursery and stuff? Will you have a baby shower? And yes, I'm from Ohio! :) Where did you live in Ohio?

    Parenthood Thread

    Who knows if this will catch on at all, but I wanted to create a thread for parents. I am a new mom myself, and I think it would be nice to have a place to talk to others (particularly others who also have livestock to care for in addition to their children) who are parents about the various...

    OHio ~ Come on Buckeyes, let me know your out there!

    I can meat using my pressure canner and I know I saw a recipe for canning venison in the book I use. I can either teach you or if you want to make a deal next hunting season, I could can some of your venison in exchange for some venison to keep. :) Let me know!

    Any Home Bakers Here?

    Ooh! Idk why I didn't think of making just a nice fresh-squeezed lemonade. I'm gonna do that! In addition to some dessert. Still gotta decide what to make.

    What desserts are you guys making for fourth of July? If I can't think of something more creative, I might just make some sort of mixed berry pie with blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries.

    Glad to hear you guys had fun! Every year I think I'll have time to make the drive from Cleveland, OH, but every year something comes up. Maybe next year! I'd love to meet more chicken people.

    What is a Sapphire Sky?

    Wow! Her second egg was much more green. :) Green eggs and ham, anyone?

    What is a Sapphire Sky?

    That's really smart of you! It's good to let them have a rest. Best of luck with her offspring. :)

    What is a Sapphire Sky?

    Good to know! I typically try to steer clear of the high production super layers when I can, because they typically get reproductive issues and don't live long. Hopefully she doesn't have those genes. But I don't want to be negative. She's a healthy hen right now so I should be happy. :)

    Es normal que mi Brahma tenga un dedo mas corto que los otros en especifico el dedo donde se ven mas plumas, además de que no tenga uña en esos dedos?

    No habla español, but it seems the tip of your bird's toe was cut off. It could also have just been born that way. I don't think it is cause for concern. If it was an injury, it looks like it healed well. They should live a very normal life. I love Light Brahmas! Enjoy your birds :)

    What is a Sapphire Sky?

    Thank you! And yeah, I've never had a hen lay this early. They must have really bred for production, unless she's an outlier.

    What is a Sapphire Sky?

    At just 15 weeks old, Clover laid her first egg today! It's more blue than I thought it would be, but still beautiful. I know sometimes the first few eggs look different from what color they end up laying for the rest of their lives though, so we'll see.
