I have a white rock that is a yr and half. She lays me an egg nearly every day but look at the size and shape as compared to one of my rhode Island Reds. My brother has some white rocks from the same order and his are doing fine. I am wondering if there is anything I can do to improve her egg...
I had one do that too last year. it died as well. I don't believe it has to do with an injury. more than likely a disease but the others were ok. He was weaker than the others when I received him. sorry to hear that. I know I was heartbroken when I loose a gosling. love them to pieces
so hubby comes home with 12 new babies. (buff orpingtons) I only have laying mash on hand and I read that I can give them instant oatmeal until the proper feed can be bought. I just need to keep them going until tomorrow morning so I can make a trip to the farmstore.
what do you all think?? I...
I have three full grown dewlap toulouse. built them a very nice shelter..which they snub..they prefer walking around the outside of the chicken coop to protect the hens. I bought them as adults since we have a predator problem around here. they will need protection until they are big enough to...
I wanted to share a couple of items I have. One being a very old clock that belonged to my hubby's grandparents. I also wanted to show you the awesome "goose girl" pic in the background. I found that in an antique store and since I have such lovely memories of my parent's geese I just had to buy...

I bought three full grown toulouse. one being full dewlap, one mixed dewlap and one straight toulouse. I paid $30 each. I am so tempted to buy some embdens but only have an acre so I must behave
It is raining cats and dogs here and my geese are having a ball digging and swinging their beaks back and forth in the puddles this morning. When it is cold outside they come up to the door and sleep. I have a house for them but my porch seems to be their favorite parking spot. I guess our geese...
I love antiques and it is so relaxing to buzz through an antique store. I bought 105 yr old farmhouse and the new stuff just doesn't look right. Some of the items I have is an old Victrola "talking machine" (wind up record player) a grandfathers clock, a wonderful old dresser.. and oodles of...
that is a very beautiful quilt and for sure she will love and treasure it! I've been quilting for over 30 yrs and mainly handquilts in a floor frame. I have machine quilted last year to make a couple quilts for the grandkids.
I've been so unmotivated to get the frame out but your pictures seem...
