    HI ALL! Been working like a nut job. Things are winding down door the summer tho. I need silkie chicks. 3 of them. A student has caught chicken fever... All is sort of well. Still have my girls, all 10 of them. And I'm fostering a duck for a few days. Don't ask...

    Hi Everyone! I haven't disappeared from the face of the earth. Just been really busy with my numerous part time jobs. And marriage, etc. I rehomed a couple of birds, so I'm (down?) to 11. Both my bantams are laying, and Aretha and Rhonda have survived a really tough molt. I almost lost...

    Thanks for all the kind words and hugs for my daughter. Her friends have been amazing, including the guys from the firehouse and their wives/girlfriends. We're planning some redecorating so that's a positive focus. Here's a great story: When Laura's father decided to stop seeing her (when...

    Hi All! Lots going on here. Good and bad. First, chicken news. Pearl, my bantam frizzle, has been laying consistently. I just love those little eggs! Harboiled a bunch for mini egg salad. I had to rehome Lavinia and Lola for noise reasons, and threw in Wanda because she's not laying...

    Congratulations to all you marrieds. Tomorrow will be 4 months for me and the Bobster. Still happy after all these months! We got another dark brown egg today and a slightly bigger bantam egg. Woot! I posted on Facebook that I have a hen that thinks she's a rooster, a dog that thinks she's...

    Okay, I just spent about an hour reading all the previous posts. I definitely have to get here more often! I'm sorry to hear the bad news about human health issues, but so happy the wayward chickie returned and the chicken health has improved. Little Miss Pauline is fully integrated into the...

    Hi all! Sorry I've been awol for so long. I seem to be spending more time with the ipad, which is great for reading, but no so much for typing. Also, I've been busy with some new students. (Thank you God) We all weathered the heat here okay, although it was touch and go for a while. I...

    Hi all! I wish I had been on vacation. Just busy and becoming more iPad dependent, which is less byc friendly than my net book. I did go to Albany for a few daysto help my sister out after surgery, but it wasn't really a vacation... We took Ed back to NJ, so now I don't have the blue...

    Just when I started thinking I had imagined crowing, Ed (the former Edna) let go yesterday with a couple of very nicely performed "cockadoodledoos". And of course I'm busy all weekend, so I have no way to make arrangements for a new home for him. Any suggestions, other than a chicken dinner...

    Hey, Carol, count me in. Maybe if I haven't found a home for Ed by then, I can find him a family there! Oh Dang! Just realized that we have tickets to see Lyle Lovett that night. Maybe if it was early enough...

    Donna, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they turn up. Pauline is always showing up in places she shouldn't be. Let us know. And speaking of being where they shouldn't be, I've decided not to take Ed back to NJ. Renee doesn't have EEs right now. No way I'm taking that drive unless I can...

    Ed, formerly known as Edna. I haven't seen him crow, but how could it not be him??

    Okay, so there was crowing in my henhouse this morning. I suspect the former Enid (now Ed). Which sux because one of the breeds I really wanted was an EE. Of course, he's gorgeous...

    Rosie, Laura got a serious ear infection from the dunk tank at the Fireman's Fair, as did another two of her fellow FFs. Ear plugs!!!! As a sort of a last minute thing, Bobby and I drove to Lambertville NJ to the Golden Nugget Flea Market. He went walking stick crazy, but I only got a couple...
