Although this thread is old, I found this sight that may be helpful to someone else. http://www.avoidsnakes.com/bitetreatmentè

Hi Critterwoman, I just pour it out in a fine stream along the outside of my fence. I live in the desert and spread it once the winter rains stop. If we get a couple big summer monsoons I will reapply. If you live where it rains often, you may want to apply it every other month during the warm...

We took the forbidden route: Florentine Benedict Lorraine Dumpling Over-Easy Popcorn Nugget Meringue Marsala Coconut Orange Wing Divan Pepper Honey Dijon Stew Don't eat our chickens - just their eggs.

Welcome! Perhaps your little white roo is a Silky. They also have black legs and skin and an extra toe.

For the snake away we make we use one dozen eggs to one bulb of garlic to two cups of water. Liquify it in blender, put in a closed container with room to expand and set in sun for 1 to 2 days. The stinkier, the better.

For years my mom has drizzled a mixture of raw egga and cruashed garlic thinned with water around her gardens to keep deer and rabbits out. One of the first ingredients in Snake Away (found at Home Depot or the like) is sulphur. In my mind, that translates to being like Mom's homemade version...

Looks like a silver lace sebright roo we had. Except the feathers are different. Could it be a cross?

To Running8rima. The wind? I concur. When at the recycling station - wind blowing my bottles and cans - the cashier tells me, "The wind is good! It gets rid of the whiners." Been reluctant to complain since. Welcome! It took me a while to stumble on this thread too.

What I meant by LV is "Lucerne Valley." Sorry for that. Common to me yet obscure to others. Not "Las Vegas" that's for sure! You are sooo right about location. We are just a drive from it all. Ground squirrels! If you could turn them into a delicacy, you would be a hero to many. They are nearly...

Funny!! Agreed! I grew up in Maryland. There it is humid (but not as hot)! Yet when I moved to the Lome Linda area while in college, I truly thought CA sucked. There you can't see the mountains that you are right next to. If you forget your sunglasses, you develop a headache from driving thru...

TheRedRoostIn Hello From Oak Hills/Hesperia! Glad to see more BYCers in the region! Hows everyone been (as I see this thread is a little old) lol Welcome! I was late to the party too.

Thank you, SoCal Dorklings and Perchie Girl. Your help is appreciated. I will look at the DIY thread and check the feed store. It looks like we will be digging for a new water line into the yard to avoid using a hose.

So glad to find this thread! Only about two years late. Hello everyone, we are in Lucerne Valley :D I have a burning question. I would like to find or devise an automatic water dispenser that runs off the water line. I found a couple of ideas online but have some reservations. In this climate...

Please hold on, just a minute! I stumbled onto this thread while fiddling on my phone version, and curiously scanned through it (Fab quilts by the way!). I could hear echos of myself from years back when the kids were new or very small. What was my big save? A book. Finding the Hero in Your...

I don't know. I used to write "please wash before eating" on the boxes. I dry clean the eggs on account of the protective bloom being removed by washing (if messy, I give to the cats or dog or used for snake-away). My husband worried about the same thing. Those who want our eggs know why they...

Thank you for sharing. Our roos, aka "the three stooges", run free outside the coop & yard. They get along OK but if a girl wonders out, it's not pretty. Thought I would find a connoisseur of "rooster fries" and we would all be happy. I didn't realize the risk of them dying from it.

My husband and I have a small ranch in the Mojave Desert. We both had chickens and delicious eggs when we were growing up and decided we would offer our children this experience as well. This site has answered many questions while planning our coop and deciding our flock - Thank You - so I...
