I understand what you're saying. You caught me at a time when I'm REALLY thinking about dogs loose and running around because of my 10 month old son and how I know he's going to want to run around outside soon. There are WAY too many loose dogs around my place and some of them come into our...
CLS I'm sorry I didn't get back with you. I did see your message and meant to respond but hadn't done it.
We're still trying to decide if we'll keep our boy or not. Leaning toward not.
Out of curiosity, do you have any Cochins?
I'd like to offer a little bit different perspective and I hope you'll take it as kindly as possible. A number of years ago I got a house in the country with a little bit of land and quickly bought some sheep as I had grown up raising them and thoroughly enjoyed having them. My next door...
Well I may be taking you up on your offer after all. Mr. New Roo decided to chase my sister yesterday and I'm not putting up with an aggressive roo... Not with a soon-to-be toddler around (my son is almost 9 mo old). Now I have to decide what to do with him...
I appreciate it CLS! I don't really have a preference of kind - we aren't hatching any right now. I just need a roo because we have a lot of hawks in the area and my girls don't keep a good look out like my roos normally do. So I just want one who will take care of his hens :) If I haven't found...
That's possible, however I think there was an actual open wound on his chest. Either way, he and the hens, in normal chicken fashion, pecked at it every once in a while as well so that could have kept a wound open to keep bleeding.
There is barbed wire on the back fence of my property and I just...
It's been a looong time since I've posted on here... Years actually. Well, since I last posted I've gotten myself a little mixed flock of 3 hens (1 RIR, 1 Cinnamon Queen, 1 Leghorn) and a Leghorn rooster.
When I came home from work the other day my rooster looked like this and by the next day...
I'm not at the auction either. I planned to go until I had physical therapy after work and by the time that was over the auction was the LAST thing on my mind :P
Where can I find more info about the Coweta auction? I drove today for the first time since my femur break so I'd kinda like to get out there just for the fun of it :)
Yes! I grew up listening to Hank on all kinds of trips or just to and from church. I especially remember driving to my grandparents' farm in MO for Christmas while it was snowing like crazy and listening to The Case of the Wounded Buzzard on Christmas Eve and trying to stay awake and catch a...
