It would be nice for nugget to be a tom. Afew of my girls still lay a little bit so he could fertilize them. My toms are 100% too old to fertilize the eggs. Romeo is 10 and Rusty has to be about 7 now
I don't think I'll get to hatch any more turkeys anytime soon. My flock is getting so old. I didn't have a single fertilized egg last year. My daughter wanted a poult to raise though and she found one at the swap over the weekend. So now we have a little Narragansett baby named Nugget running...
I wanted to swim a lot this winter while I was off work but it just didn't happen. Between snow, ice and just plain being cold out, I haven't gone very much.
It sounds like you have a good plan for her but I thought I would drop in and give my experience. I had a blind hen named Hershey (BCM). She was born blind and I only learned that when I realized that one chick in the brooder just wasn't doing good, not eating/ drinking. Once I managed to teach...
Good morning pond! It's Sunday morning, DD is on spring break this week so she wants to go do stuff together this week. I have no clue what we're doing yet but apparently she wants to go get a massage at some point. DH and I have our anniversary on Thursday, his dad's and my dad's birthdays are...
Good morning pond. We've got 50s today and tomorrow (but rain). They're calling for a possible nor'easter this weekend. As of right now, they're saying 3-6" so we'll see what happens. I wouldn't mind one more big snow storm this year since we didn't really get much. Especially with it scheduled...
Good morning pond! Looks like spring is trying to emerge here! We're going to be in the 50's until the weekend! It was so nice outside yesterday that we worked off some cabin fever and put our new tractor to work. We yanked some logs out of the woodline, hauled out the log splitter, dug the...
Good evening pond. I'm still battling my cold but I'm slowly getting better. I have the first chicks of the season hatching right now. We also bought our first tractor ever. I'm looking forward to all of the stuff we're going to get done this summer :) It's great at moving snow so far lol...
17 years, wow! It's so hard to lose them when they're so sweet. Romeo has always been a huge sweet heart. I used to put him in a harness to go meet the girl scouts for Thanksgiving. He was a huge ham, strutting for everyone and letting all the girls surround him, pet him, and love on him. It'll...
I was going through old Facebook stuff yesterday trying to find an old picture...I always say about how Sweet Pea is so old (she's 11 this year!) but I didn't realize that my Romeo turns 10 this year! I thought he was younger than that! No wonder he hobbles almost as much as she does anymore...
