    Opposum in the chicken yard,

    I went out tonight to lock the chicken coop a little late and my dogs were going nuts.

    Hi from Bama...

    Just wanted to say hi from down south. Love the site. Been lurking for a while and figured I would sign up and say hi. Truth is I think I have a problem.....my weekends are spent at chicken swaps and bee keeper meetings. I need to be around some fellow enthusiast so I can talk chicken stuff...
