    The Front Porch Swing

    I think it's kinda like how you make a big fish look bigger. You hold it far away from your body closer to the camera. I can't find any other info on this breed at all. And the guy who has them doesn't give descriptives on it when asked specific questions.

    The Front Porch Swing

    Well that didn't put a word I wrote in it! We do share the same kid. I feel your pain. Mine is 8 tho. Has been in a special school since 1st grade for his issues. Next step is military school. His mother is a felon for stealing money. Like 125,000! She got just probation. I can't leave him with...

    The Front Porch Swing

    I tell my stepson " You don't have to like it. You just have to eat it.". He will eat 5 bowls of something then the next time say he don't like it. He's a very hard kid all the way around. It's the worst when he sees his mom every other weekend. He rules the roost over there.

    The Front Porch Swing

    I am on day17 ans am using a little giant still air. Our temp in our house fluctuates bad so I thought in a corner in the middle of the house would be better. I'm praying it goes ok. I would be devastated.

    The Front Porch Swing

    I am right there with you. It's my first hatch and the temperatures have fluctuated so much I'm nervous. I've only seen a couple move but then I wonder if it's my brain playing with me because I want them to move so bad. Lol. I put my chicks in a cow water trough. One thing I've learned is...

    That's how we neuter our bull calfs. Tie a band around em and they fall off after a while. Gotta make sure they are in there though. One of our neighbors didn't make sure both were dropped yet and missed one. The calf died from a nasty infection soon after.

    Is he dubbed? I need to learn to do this. My daughter loves OEGB and has a hen that won grand champion last year. We found a gorgeous cockrel but he didn't make it through our winter. I would love to find another but to show I would have to dub him.

    It is! It's the best syrup I've tasted. It's not real dark at all. I don't know if it's something with my trees or area or what it is but other people's tastes different.

    I imagine not many maples down there. Lol! We have had some amazing runs. We tapped 60 trees and have been getting 60-65 gallons of sap a day.

    The Front Porch Swing

    Hey girls it's me! The one who sits in the corner not saying much but laughs a lot. I have a question for all of you. Does anyone make maple syrup? We are having a problem with the sugar sand. It is very bad for some reason. I've used the wool filter and the milk egg mixture to rid it but there...

    Michigan Hatchers! What'cha got cookin?

    Thank you. It is my first hatch. I adjusted the temp with the plugs. It's holding steady so far. I wish I knew a dry hatch was just really what it's called - a dry hatch before I started. I guess I'm thinking to hard.

    Michigan Hatchers! What'cha got cookin?

    I am using a little giant still air. My temp is staying at 99.5 to 100.5. I am on day 6. I am hatching mille fleur d'unclles. I was going to do dry hatch but haven't read enough about it and chickened out last minute. I can't wait to have little chicks chirping around the farm.

    The Front Porch Swing

    That is a beautiful story. Those are normal mom emotions with being overwhelmed with the other kids already. I have 4 kids with my last being a complete surprise so I completely know how you felt at that time. My last one would definitely be given back though if someone took my kids. She is the...

    Dog got ahold of baby chick ***GRAPHIC PICTURES***

    Last spring I had a neighbor's king Charles spaniel come over and do the same thing to my lavender ameraucana I bought the day before. He was in a cage in the coop in quarantine. Mean little roo. I think he was pecking the dog and the dog reached up and took a mouth full of feathers. Whole neck...

    The Front Porch Swing

    My dh and I are complete hoarders. We collect things we use on a day to day basis. We always have 3 of everything. It's all pretty organized though except for scrap metal outside. (He fabricates farm equipment and we make wood fire boilers) I don't know if it's growing up with nothing or...

    Cabin fever? Or just mean people?

    It's sad though when there is a question asked and after a few pages of bickering the original OP hasn't even returned. I hope it didn't scare them off.
