I signed hope the petitions do the job.

Monsoons are here in Arizona been so hot and dry the rains are welcome. I worried about the chickens as they had never seen hard rain. Went out to check on them and found each one sitting on chairs and the bbq ect. They were actually liking the rain but chose not to sit in the mud. Luckily we...

Am back this will teach me to stay off the computer for a week I had like 19 pages to read. Good reading so no real complaints on that score. Thanks for the kind posts. Nice to see new members. Welcome!! My baby chicks have grown up--- we got our first eggs from them this week. My young cochin...

Been mostly off line for awhile fighting with heath insurance and their providers. Had a pain clinic appointment 50 miles away so our vehical broke down and I had to demand medically neccessary rides.Meanwhile argueing wth the company that sends assistants to me as I have to have help wth...

You people are cheering me up again. Dave and I are both retired. He has always had what I thought as a coldness toward farm animals and dogs n such. If someting had to be put down he calmly did it and never seemed to be bothered. Last year he named a turkin chick Fluffy. This year he has tamed...

Thanks I have been to this page. My eyes are not yet trained well so have trouble judging myself plus they are so sweet I tend to be predjudiced.

AndyCap Thanks for taking a look. As soon as I can get Dave to get more photoes will post. The blues feet are yellow. I am hoping they will improve as they mature. I really do not have plans for the partridge other than eggs. The mottled cock I like but is that an accepted variety? I didn't see...

Last year I decided to concentrate on one breed. Anyway I got it down to cochin or japanese bantys. There is sooo much to consider --Took me months to decide so I can feel your difficulty in choosing your breed good luck with that and when you do decide please post a link to a picture of one...

Hmmm jam!!! I so miss canning. As I have to rely on Dave and a helper to cook I am not sure I am ready to teach that lesson. Dave has mastered home made egg noodles and demanding lessons on making a cobbler as the apricots and peaches are beginning to ripen. The chickens got into my strawberry...

I asked about these 14 week chick this weekend and received no answers so I am assuming most members were not on line. So, because I really want to learn so someday my flock will be something to be proud of I am asking again to know what is good and what is bad about these chicks. The little roo...

What is a BYC ovation? I seem to have gotten one. Oh never mind I put a caption in that contest.

I can taste those strwberries could you email me one? Great your coop plans are progressing.

Yes I guess others don't do what I do and check back on the threads I am on and look at photos ect. I will retry my post Monday. Thanks Chickadoodles

It's happening again I post my pic of my babies in the cochin thread and many hours later no replies. Makes me feel like I have bad internet BO. I see other newbies get answers with just about the same requests. Any idea what is my problem? I just want to improve my flock over time. I will never...

AW!! Very beautiful bird.

Good morning & happy Saturday! I woke up to smoke. Forest fires here in Arizona while not near me have sent the smoke into the Verde Valley where I live. Means I have to limit my out door time and stay in with supplemental oxygen til the wind changes or the fires are out. It is a trade off- I...

My 14 week precocious cochin. I really love his looks tho no doubt far from a show bird.

Finally got clearer pictures of the 13 week old chicks. Can any one tell me what he is and I think the hens are partridge and a blue but unsure about the blue. For now I am injoying them maybe in the future I will afford really great quality chick but right now any comments will help me learn...
