    cswolfes madelines

    So now that he has given me his secret to Madelines, I am a huge hit! They are perfect! Soft and spongy, perfectly shaped, not too sweet. Proust would write another volume if he tasted these sweet little perfections. And for the adventurous, his candied bacon is amazing too. Thanks CS for the...

    killer toads

    So we have these toads in arizona. They come out during monsoon season and if the dogs get them, they get poisoned. My jack russell has gotten a few and i have had to shove the hose down his throat to wash the poison out. Afterwards, he walks around totally stoned, hence the phrase toad licker...

    chicken thief

    Today at the Tucson food bank, four rir hens were stolen. The thief cut through a double fence and snatched them from their coop. The hens were used to teach people how to raise chickens and the eggs were sold at a local farmers market. I guess I will be installing a padlock on the coop...

    killer chickens

    I have a hen that has been sitting on her eggs for weeks. She stays in the nesting box most of the time, only coming out to stretch her legs and walk through the water. I am guessing that some of these eggs will hatch in a few days and a chick or two may survive. The problem is my chickens will...

    how to deal with control freaks?

    Unfortunately, I had to participate in an assignment with a control freak today. Long story short, we were put into groups of five and asked to answer five questions on paper and then discuss our answers. I started writing, she started talking. I continued to write my answers and finished in...

    MIdlife school girl

    So, I have started school again, finally, but let me give you a little backstory. When I graduated LPN school in California, I went straight on to an IV team. It was an easy job really. I worked at the major trauma center in San Diego and all I had to do was show up and save the day by getting...

    What to expect when youre expecting?

    So, I have hatched eggs twice before in an incubator. Now I have a broody hen sitting on a clutch in the nesting box and I want to know what I can expect.

    How many eggs in there?

    I have a six nest enclosed box that my chickens lay eggs in. Usually, I find eggs in five of the nests. For the last week, there is one chicken that wont move off one of the nests and the others get in there with her and lay their eggs right next to her. I typically get 12-18 eggs a day. now Im...

    my coop is ugly

    So my coop is really ugly. I have planted honeysuckle on the outside in the hopes that it would eventually cover it and make it prettier. It is working, however, I had to build a fence around the honeysuckle because the chickens love it. I also built a ramada in the chicken yard for shade and...

    the lion in my backyard

    Last night, I was watching a movie when I glanced over at the security camera that covers my coop. The chickens were frozen still and all were looking in the same direction. I went outside to check it out thinking it might be a snake or a coyote outside the fence. As I was checking the yard with...

    chicken commits suicide

    Yesterday afternoon, I found one of my barred rocks wedged between a wall and some bricks. She was upside down with her head in the wet dirt and appeared to have suffocated. She had broken a leg six weeks earlier, but we treated that and she had been up walking around during the day. We had...
