Thank you! Now to decide if I can keep him. I really want to, have cranky neighbors hoping he isn't too loud. However I laugh at that because our hens are really really noisy... can a rooster be any louder?

That is what I was thinking... just does not seem to have as much white as some of the pictures I have found.

My daughter picked this guy up as a chick at a feed store. All we knew was he/she was a bantam. I think it is safe to say at 4 mos he is a rooster, Can anyone tell me what type of Bantam he is?

Quote: Good point... don't want to encourage unwelcomed critters, for myself or any neighbors that might have chickens.

I suppose I feel the same way....

I was thinking of going out to the blm land and tossing her there, at least the coyotes might get a meal... Please understand I love our chickens and I was/am devastated she died, I have just had one of those mornings... This is what our 17yr son did trying to back out of our driveway this...

We had one of our Buff Rocks die, not a clue as to why. What do you do with the dead chicken, do you throw it in the trash... seems to me that Waste Management frowns on that besides it will stink by the Monday our garbage day. :(

I have been off the loop, I will take some time and read through what everyone has been up too! The past two months I have been preparing for the arrival of my new 6 mos old filly! We traveled 9 hours to Oregon to pick her up. She is now home safe and sound and I can get back to "normalcy"...

Unfortunately here in the foothills there are so many people who feed and water, and no one to police it people do what they think is best. When are horse was hit several years ago on Toll Rd, it almost took and act of God to get someone to come out and remove the dead horse... no one would...

Yes, those feral horses are really becoming a problem. There are too many ignorant people "feeding and watering" them so they stay down low, and around neighborhoods. I love horses, has I have my own, but I am constantly on guard with our mare and the stallion. They frequent the neighbors...

Sheryl, I would love to help you, and anyone else who wants to start!!!! I am no expert but I do have it down pretty well! 2seth2... they will lay soon! I was sooooo excited when we got our first tiny little itty bitty egg!

My computer is running again, Dell shipped the new hard drive overnight, and a tech came and put it in. Still a blank slate. I highly recommend, encourage, and suggest that everyone backs up there computer some how. My last back up for the overall system was on the 25th of July, luckily...

It really does bite! However in the scheme of things it could always be worse, kids, horses, dogs, cats, chickens are all healthy today!

How about... my laptop that I have had 3 mos for NO reason crashed and fried the hard drive. Called Dell, they have never seen this error code with that model. I didn't do anything, it just froze. URGH. All my music from my ipod I have to figure out how to down load that again from my...
