    Unsure of breeds; hoping somebody can help.

    Did you try clicking on the picture of Sunny to blow it up bigger? I think I posted thumbnails that will enlarge if you click on them. She has a slight comb and little wattles so far..they're just starting to take on some color. I got all of these as newly hatched chicks (minus Sally, the...

    Dog Attack

    Sorry I'm so late in updating.. My husband tried repeatedly to speak to the owners, but they were never there. Sunday evening, he pulled into our driveway to find both of the German Shepards in our yard, in the vicinity of the chicken/rabbit. He fired a warning shot and then followed the dogs...

    Dog Attack

    I just got started with chickens this year, and today I lost my gorgeous 6 month old Cochin rooster. I raised him from the time he was 2 days old, he rode around in my shirt while he was still little enough. He was my very first chicken, my baby. Along with him, I lost my 5 month old Silky...

    Post Your Animal Kodak Moments HERE!!!!!!!

    This is the face of a young lady who just got caught digging up a flowerbed. This is the "Don't be mad at me! Look how pretty I am!" cover of Playfowl magazine pose.. My wonderful husband took a couple of minutes out of his busy work schedule yesterday to dig up some worms for the girls...

    RANT - she stole my ribbons! ( slightly long)

    Quote: I have to agree with what others have said. She's not your friend; a friend would not do what she's done and when a friend makes an honest mistake, she apologizes for it and does whatever necessary to make it right. My guess would be that she's one of those people who has no real...

    Okay, if I were to move where should I go................

    Quote: It's so funny how different we all are! I lived in Knoxville for a bit and I couldn't get back out of there fast enough. where'd you live and why didn't you like it? Just curious! To be honest, I wasn't there long and it was somewhere I went to live with somebody who already lived...

    Freecycle ad just rubbing me wrong.

    The discipline in public vs discipline at home thing never made any sense to me. Why do some parents refuse to discipline their children-on any level-just because they're out somewhere? If I acted up as a child..which didn't happen often, it was dealt with and I wasn't given any leeway because...

    My Neighbors Kid.... Grrr.

    I agree that a conversation between parents needs to happen. But.. What gets me the most about this whole situation is that we're (as a society) at a point where it must be assumed that we'll have to explain to another parent *why* what his child did is inappropriate and unacceptable...

    My DD has Scarlet Fever!

    Quote: Aw. Hope she feels better soon! Since she was 5, my youngest has gotten strep twice a year, and half of those times she's had the rash, too. This is the first year we've made it through fall/winter with NO strep/sf! WooHoo!

    Other people's kids! Aaaagh!

    Starting off, I'll say I'm also in Davaroo's camp. I'm in the same general situation this weekend. My daughter's 9th birthday party is Saturday, and it's a sleep-over. I'm always dreading inviting kids over that we don't know or haven't been around at another function to have an idea of how...

    The weirdest thing you have seen on the highway.

    Quote: EEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Summerlin, . Ummm....our roads are fairly normal. There was a toilet and a car seat one time though! And the illegally killed cow elk that I was able to observe from freshly killed through white bones... This reminded me of...

    The weirdest thing you have seen on the highway.

    In the wee hours one morning in April of '95..southbound..inner loop of the beltway..my husband, a friend and I were on our way to the big celebration for my grandparents' 50th anniversary/vow renewal. We were chit-chatting when my husband suddenly had to swerve around something, raced to the...

    Okay, if I were to move where should I go................

    Quote: Oh... I know! I know! KNOXVILLE!!! Seriously, it's the perfect place to live. It only snows a few times a year and always melts within a day or two. Avg. temp for the coldest months is in the 40's. No hurricanes, very very few tornados and no earthquakes. We have the mountains, we...
