    So you work retail and need to clock out. Rant.

    Okay. I work the cutting counter at JoAnn Fabrics. I get to work at 7:00 AM, and am off at 12:00. Corporate decides how many hours my managers can give out, which is why I only work five hours. Noon happens to be when things get busy. So we had a lot of people waiting, and it's already almost...

    Anyone watch Chuck?

    It's in danger of being canceled! Yes, it's a silly show about a computer geek who gets government secrets uploaded into his head. But how many other shows combine comedy, action and romance in a tolerable way? NONE! The ratings for Chuck plummeted this season because it's in the same time slot...

    Anyone else have a great day?

    So we had a long, cold, dark winter this year. Last year was pretty bad too. Today was mostly sunny, if a bit cold. I just can FEEL spring coming, and it makes me smile. Anyone else have a lovely day? This is what I got to look at.

    History of the Egg?? Small rant.

    I'm watching this show, and it just informed me that brown eggs come from Rhode Island Reds, white from White Leghorns, and blue, green and pink eggs come from Araucanas. Now this is technically true, but it made it sound like there are only three breeds of chickens. "It's actually the kind of...

    Has anyone ever...

    Heard of training a cat to use a human toilet? A while ago I read about it, bought a kit, and started. Charlie (my cat) is not yet fully trained, but consistently goes straight into the toilet water. I know that some people are against it because cats naturally bury their waste to cover the...

    I talk about chickens too much.

    Any of you had a conversation like this? Me- I'm getting a couple chicks in the spring. Co-Worker- You know they grow up into not-so cute chickens, right? Me- They are to cute! And they give eggs, eat your leftovers, and keep the bugs down. Co-Worker- Hm. Maybe I should get chickens.

    Hybrid dog house?

    Okay, I know that it says it's not available any more, and that it would have been super expensive but seriously. It's a pre-made hen house and run! This company could move some serious stock if they called it a hen house. I mean, the eglu is $665 and can hold maybe two chickens. (Yes they...

    I've gone around the bend. (New member intro)

    Hello BYC! I'm not technically new, but new enough. I grew up with chickens, my parents still have some, but now I live on a small lot with billions of neighbors. I've gotten really OCD in a short about of time about chickens. I can't even get any until Feb-March, as that's when my local feed...

    Can't figure out what she is!

    This was a lovely lady who was sadly attacked and killed by a dog recently. I was thinking to maybe get some more like her. She was small and hardly ever clucked loudly, and laid light green eggs. Sorry for the bad picture, but it's all I could find. Notice how small she is compared to the...

    What to do if you lack construction skills?

    I grew up with chickens, but also with people who could stamp out a chicken house in a weekend. Now in urban-ville, I don't know how to proceed. It must be clean looking, and something with little to no fabrication required. I added some pictures to give you all an idea of what I'm working with...

    What does this code mean?

    I live in Bellingham, Washington and hope to get a couple hens next year. I live within the city limits and have a very small lot, less than a quarter acre. This is what I've found on animals in Bellingham. It seems as though it is legal unless there is some ordinance saying no. I looked at the...
