    Attracting Predators

    I used to never see wildlife in my backyard but since the girls moved in, yeah, you see everything. Preds, pests, and wanted creatures. It boosts the ecosystem but it's nothing to worry about. Just hope you don't get gators snooping around hahahahaha THAT is probably the weirdest predator...

    Seperation Anxiety!!!!! Me...not the chicks!

    It's okay. When we had enough money to spare we actually got a security camera on our chickens at all times, along with an intercom system between the house and the chickens so that if predators come we can scare em off. We all get attached, and lose a little sanity for chickens. Who...

    Is This Common Practice?

    Oh yeah??? I might have to look into that... he didn't mention where they were from other than that they lived in his town.

    Are these girls or boys?

    I think they're all roosters actually. I had some that looked like that earlier this year.

    Sore throat cures

    I usually gargle garlic juice and salt when I have a hurting throat. Usually heals right up!

    My 4 year old said a 4 letter word... RANT

    I always worry when kids start swearing. I remember my best friend used to have a CLEAN mouth and then it got DIRTY. It was about six months later she got pregnant and admitted to a drinking problem

    Weird phobias?

    I actually had to go to therapy in elementary school for a year or two because I had a fear of quilts and blankets. I dunno... they're just kinda... this confining thing sitting on you... I feel silly NOW but back then, yeah, I could hardly handle it. My best friend is scared of spiders.

    Is This Common Practice?

    Dunno if this is the right section of the forums but I had to ask it somewhere. My uncle and his two children came out last weekend and were immediately enthralled with our chickens. They kept asking a question though about if we pray to them. I always just shrugged it off but near the end of...

    College Football!

    Because if nothing matters, than watching it doesn't really matter either

    College Football!

    Eh, not really. When I see how many people get psyched over such a trivial game, it makes me wonder what worth we really have as a species. If THAT matters, how can I rate how much ANYTHING matters? DOES anything matter? Existentialism sinks in when I watch sports.

    College Football!

    I don't know the rules to football, and I've been watching like all day.

    How do you deal with a death?

    I had a similar situation when I was in fifth grade. A boy I knew had both of his parents killed in a car crash the previous week. When he finally came back to school, one of the other boys in the class gave him a card where he had drawn two ghosts in crayon. Like, the "sheet" style ghost...

    This book even gives TWILIGHT a run for its money...

    Is it HARD to give twilight a run for its money?... all it takes is a writing level that surpasses something a 13 year old kid could do. And characters that are flushed out beyond a mere idea... and a moral... and... basically you just have to tell an ACTUAL story. This is coming from someone...

    So... I'm guessin this isn't one of my chickens (pic)

    Well like I said, it's the first time this has ever happened and that was last year so... if it becomes a problem I guess I'll try that fencing method. Or a force field. Whichever seems most plausible at the time.
