    Wow what really is this stuff?????

    Except here in PA we have had a ton of rain or are you trying to say it got dry in space? Because I don't see how it could get dry in space since there is no gravity. Dehydrated wasn't the right word. I was thinking what happens when something gets bombarded with all kinds of interstellar...

    Wow what really is this stuff?????

    This kind of stuff has been happening for a very long time, there are records of ancients finding this stuff. My guess is that is what happens when water and some other minerals get super-dehydrated going through space and semi-melt in the atmosphere. No science what so ever, just my personal...

    How do I explain this?

    As a child used to get cold sores so bad they'd take over my upper lip and go up my nose. I've got some interesting scars from it too. I never have enough money for the topical stuff and I don't see a reason to take a pill for something that's only catastrophic about once a year. So I use...

    Ghosts and the Paranormal...

    We lived in one of those old farm houses growing up, you know the kind, started out as one room and got ramshackled together as the family grew. The wiring left much to be desired and would often trip the breakers if you had more than one appliance kick on at once. For the most part we got...

    Tina Turner, here we come!

    Well, I've been letting the manbeast take care of the chickens for the last week or so while I work more. It seemed like a good arrangement, until I checked one of the nesting boxes and found my top hatter broody on a weeks worth of eggs! Apparently since he found eggs in the runs, he didn't...

    The perils of making a Brooder Break!

    The Locale: A steel industrial brooder with nylon mesh over the top. From the top of the brooder to the floor is a good four foot drop. The Players: 55 mixed bantam chicks and a German Shepherd with a prey drive/working dog complex. One Tweety Bird by name. The Setting: Family takes Tweety...

    total embarrasment....for my son

    ....we routinely get matching shirts for the whole family, teenage boy included. Specifically for public outings so we're easy to spot and more inclined to keep herded together. Must be an autism thing.

    City Council srtikes again!

    Listing the wealth people who own back yard flocks was in response to the reasoning that only poor people own chickens. It's poverty = chickens = lower class =reduced property values. I wish the magic of chickens made you more wealthy with out any work to it. Chicken math would have a whole new...

    Dying of old age (natural death) symptoms

    Initially I was worried because they didn't seem to be that old, but 6 years can be for some breeds. My mutt birds regularly live to 8 plus, but when they have died they exhibit the signs you are talking about. Are you in an area that is still experiencing the horrid heat? It's possible the...

    Suing parent for child support?

    I had similar problems when I went to school. So I put out an ad, posted it right on Financial Aids door. "Can't file as an independent? Parent's to poor? Looking for Marriage Lease. Expected length: 4 years. Consummation not required or desired. Please contact me at..." No takers, but if I had...

    Do I tip/How much do I tip .......

    The business owner usually doesn't get tipped because they are making a cut off of their employees. Huh? Would you explain this a little more? I've asked the various member of my household and they're all as puzzled as I am.

    My sister was harassed at a farmer's market! RANT!!

    I don't think it's overly sensitive to be upset when some authoritarian bureaucrat waltzes in and starts ordering you around. Especially the sort you tend to get at farmers markets, who think that anything home made is oozing with listeria and salmonella and you personally are some kind of...

    Are we cold?

    Thanks for the quick response! They're spread out along the length of the brooder now and happy chirping, so I'm positive you're right. I'd just hate to have to explain to the family that I some how let the chicks freeze in this heat. Maybe my brain is just baked.

    Are we cold?

    It's 96 degrees here in sunny NY, 87 of which are in my house. These guys are 1 week old mixed bantams. I checked on them an hour ago and every one was spread out as thin as they could get and panting heavily. I raised the heat lamp as high as it would go and came back half an hour later with no...

    What do you all think of Anonymous?

    While I like the idea and have no problem with this sort of protest/action, I don't trust it. Who is the driving force behind this group? Spooks hide all around this kind of thing. Look at the person they're helping. The only reason Aussange isn't in jail right now is he worked out a deal with...

    "Natural flea control"

    If you have any food grade DE around, that could help until you get on your feet again. It's not nearly as effective as chemical flea treatments, and isn't a preventative, but it's worked for us in a pinch especially with rescue dogs.
