    Major bummer! I did eventually make it but didn't stay as long as I'd have liked (dh & ddwere with me and aren't as interested, the bums). I was super impressed with the gorgeous, monster-sized Cochins, adorable variety of bantams and the various other game birds there! Good thing DH was with me...

    Eastern Washington

    I'm having an issue and wanted to be at the fairgrounds already! Yesterday DH caught the bad neighbor's pup attacking one of my hens. She's ok minus raw skin from feathers that were torn out, but very traumatized. So I'm waiting around for animal control again :(

    Been away for quite awhile since I've started working outside the home again. Sounds like we all have chick fever! I have 8 3wk/o babies right now. I do plan on going to the poultry show on Saturday, but not sure DH will be too happy if I leave with more mouths to feed, ha ha! This will be the...

    Unfortunately no. I currently have two little roos that I adore (JB and a Silkie). I will eventually get a standard sized one, but probably not until they are gone. I had luck putting extras in Craigslist before, but you certainly cannot be sure what will be done with them. I didn't list them...

    THAT'S HALF OF WHAT YOU ORDERED? Wow, good for you!!! :-) Still debating on doing some meat birds again. If I can find Rangers I'd like to try them this time as the Cornish X were not enjoyable to deal with! I bought 8 more layer chicks (SLW, BSL & BO) hoping to have better winter output. Wish I...

    The Duck Thread

    Dodge941, where might you move to? I'm in Kennewick, but was born here so I have no experience transferring the birds to different climates. I did lose a Cochin when we hit 104 last year but otherwise the birds have done fine. You really need to have several options for shade and put out water...

    Ordered hatchery babies will arrive at the feed store the 21st of this month! Gotta get things situated to manage twice the number I currently have!

    Raising Geese 101

    That's why I said "presumed" to be a gander as I figured females may mount (even female dogs do!). That particular goose/gander has not laid any eggs yet, but we shall see this spring! I still have both of them, if the last part was directed toward me.

    Raising Geese 101

    I ended up letting her run thru it. Funny thing is that the other goose (presumed to be a gander as it has been seen on multiple occasions mounting the other) eventually sat with her for a long time and stayed several days after she gave up.

    Oh, the poor dear! I've had to get animal control out here too as one problematic neighbor wouldn't keep 4 GSD puppies from roaming all over. They ended up taking them at one point when I called again as they were on my property around my birds. But the people got them back and were roaming...

    Getting super sick of the wind here! It threw off the 2 oak pallets from my goose/duck shelter roof that was holding down plastic (which was also stapled down) over straw. So much for that idea! Gladly, no one was squashed! Our weather people ALWAYS get it right about the wind coming but seem to...

    Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

    The paint is chipping on my house and pump house and the chickens, ducks and geese all peck at it. If you figure out a solution, lower me know! It hasn't killed them yet but it is very irritating!

    I can imagine the smell from a bad goose egg! Had a chicken egg that failed to hatch explode on me! BLECK!

    fosterson, I need to look into how to do blown eggs. The goose and duck I have lay kinda boring cream colored ones but they have stopped laying right now.
