Boy! You stay off the 'puter for a few days and everything breaks loose! Missed all the hullabaloo, but I don't need it anyway. Have enough IRL. My son broke his right hand breaking a colt Friday night, so needless to say I have a very eventful weekend
Had to dispatch a rooster that was...
Good morning! All the chickens are fed/watered and settled for the day. Have about a dozen 4mo old pullets and a 6mo old NN rooster that I'll be taking to Kellyville. Also have a barred cochin chick (abot a month old) that is male and he's in the brooder with his two "sisters" that are by the...

I really do! I don't have very many barred birds and would like to throw some of that into the flock! Actually...until I attend POOPS I won't have any...wait i am telling a fib...I think I have two babies that are barred but they don't count cuz they are packing peanuts. The boy has...

Al is right - nothing to fool around with here. I hate when we have to do it, and my DH is a biiger puffball when it comes to critters than I am, but we both know when it's the right thing to do. He's even had to put down horses in extreme circumstances - it kills him every time, but...

Here's the answer:
DH -- Dear Husband
DS -- Dear Son
DD -- Dear Daughter

Depending on the day and time it could mean "dear" husband, "darling" husband, or "d@mn" husband

you mean you know how many chickens you have i lost count years ago
My husband and my son say that if you know how many guns you have, you don't have enough. Suppose I could convince them that holds true for chickens as well?
Made it to the Kellyville swap - just looking mostly - brought hubby along and HE spent all the $$ LOL
Got to meet Coral and admire her beautiful birds - she was selling them FAST! Too bad I didn't need anything

KarenN - Look for me at the swap. I will have chicks, chickens, and ducks. If I can find my blue POOPS shirt, I'll wear it. Otherwise, look for a silver Tacoma. My cages will be set up on a couple of white folding tables, and the rest will be on the tailgate.
I'll look for you...
Beggs got a slew of rain - flooded pastures and MUD this morning - I had almost forgot what mud looked like! Fortunately no major damage in this area. Lightning storms always scare me after losing my favorite mare to lightning a few years ago
Hope everyone else survived the night, and...
Just came up out of the hidey hole - LOTS wind and hail, and torrents of rain, but no twisters! YAY. However, after 4 or more months of drought, 4 inches of rain in an hour is not exactly what we needed! But I'm not really complaining!

How awful! Prayers that the MIA turn up soon!
Our dogs are the opposite end of the spectrum - they PROTECT the chickens, consider them their own flock and will not let predators of any kind anywhere near them. I am so thankful for those old mangy cast-off strays!! Yep, we adopt...
