    Rant: Plastic bags

    I hate plastic in general. My household has greatly cut down on our consumption a lot, and as a result we have far less trash. My sister and mother visited and our house was flooded with plastic bags (even though we have tons of reusable ones) and tons of plastic bottles (even though we have a...

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!---another rant

    Quote: Well, water conservation is always good http://www.treehugger.com/corporate-responsibility/a-new-era-of-water-conservation.html ...but I can't figure out how you break a toilet with a brick. It isn't brain surgery to gently place one in.

    Ducks + Dogs = not great gardening

    Rosemary and lavender is good to have because when it is big enough they sleep IN it rather than ON it

    This is just great...I have Egg-bird syndrome!

    For weeks I could not understand why every once in a while I would get stomach cramps and start to vomit . The quiche for dinner night was the worst night ever! I figured it out finally and I am not happy to say it has been the eggs all along making me sick. Just this year I started my flock of...

    Too many eggs! Need to sell some.

    Can anyone give me tips on how I should go about selling the extra eggs that I have from my 6 chickens and 3 ducks? I was thinking of posting on CL or maybe posting signs around the neighborhood letting people know there are eggs for sale. I can only sell maybe a dozen chicken and a dozen duck...

    Noisy hens! Is that normal?

    It is normal for some chickens. I know a few coops in my town where you almost never hear the hens making noises, but in other places around town you can hear chickens blocks from their coop...such as mine. We have a large park behind our house and I can hear my chickens at the very other side...

    Cracked eggs?!

    I cut a bit of cardboard to fit the bottom of the nest box when no matter how much nesting material or what kind it always got scratched away. So far it works great.

    Chicken spending the day in nest box.

    She can go broody all she wants and it might be fun to let her keep some eggs and see what happens, but I don't really want to do so until I'm sure she is broody.

    Chicken spending the day in nest box.

    I don't think she is broody. She lets me pull eggs out from under her and she stays out when I pick her up and put her out. It just seems a bit odd that when she gets in to lay an egg she just doesn't get out again. She has only done it the past two days. Anyone have any ideas why she is doing...

    every year I intend to use weed blocking cloth in my garden

    We put straw down over the entire garden. We have a few bind weeds come out and a few foxtails, but it is very manageable unlike most years. Thhis pic is from a month ago.

    Ugh. Poor dog.

    Offer to walk the dog, take the dog on rides to a lake where she can run around and be a dog. If these people only care about breeding her why would they cafe if a friendly neighbor comes over and asks to give the dog some fun time. Tell them it is only fair since it is your birds the dog has...

    Ducks and chickens sharing coop

    If you have your nest boxes elevated about a foot the ducks wont even notice where the eggs are. As long at the eggs are out of the way so the ducks can't step all over them they wont bother the eggs. As it is when a duck lays an egg they usually make a nest out of the way in the corner and just...
