    My grandkids play house looks almost like the one shown earlier, and I told the grandkids that we would make their play house into a chicken house and they didn't like the idea. They get upset now when the chickens go up there and make a mess. I don't know why they don't like the idea (laugh)...

    Quote: Ya, and we thought we had it rough, that must have been tough on you DI's. My son got out a few years back after a yr in Iraq. He had been in 6yrs, and he said, that's no way to have a family, being gone a year, every few years. When I was at Leonard Wood, I got out of shape...

    Quote: Bonnie, The way I candle eggs is to take a lamp and take the shade off. Get a box and cut a small hole (maybe 3/4in. square) in the bottom. Then at night turn all the lights out, except the lamp. Put the lamp under the hole and put an egg over the hole. Just be careful not to get...

    Quote: Bonnie, I hope you do get a 100% hatch, but remember some of those eggs are getting a little old, so that's why I told you to take them, with no charge and see what you end up with. You can candle the eggs, it just that you have to wait a little longer to check and be sure. You will...

    Quote: Bonnie, No I'm not done with the subbing. I was able to get someone to work for me yesterday, so that was a good day to get feed. No I don't have any pictures, but will try to get some later, especially pictures of those eggs that you got so excited about. It may be a bit though...

    I also appreciate the comments by Dr Bjorn Netland, especially when he was writing about the Barber line, since I now have some. I haven't been around lately, because I sub at the Post Office on a rural route, and the regular carrier had a mild stroke the first of the month. I'm used to...

    Quote: I only have 4 white leghorns and they are laying machines. It seems like they are just skin & bones, but 4 extra large eggs almost every day, and on a rare day only 3. I sure don't get their eggs mixed up with the wellies. Brown leghorns I've had in the past didn't seem to lay quite...

    Quote: I checked with the Post Office and if you are having problems, you do need to check with sending and the receiving Post Office. If you still don't get good results use the usps.com and you will get answers. Yes, a few do ruin it for all, you need to make your complaints known...
