Your sister is right. (See you set me off) The US would do well to get with the world. Not just in measurement. It would be a huge step for children. To communicate in the same language the rest of the world uses. And it is so much more straight forward. Direct corelations between mass...

OK, here's the scratch! We have two hens, Ginger and MaryAnn. Ginger was egg bound for a few days. We got her past that and her first post-bound egg was HUGE! Nothing for a couple of days, then another HUGE egg. She laid the past three days and appears to be getting back to normal. One a day...

It was a word association moment. Our two cats are similar colours. One Black and gray and the other a Big OLD Ginger Blob. I thought about ginger cat, ginger chicken. Then I heard the Gilligan's Island theme in my head and suggested it as a bit of a joke. On further thought, it worked. So is...

MaryAnn is an Black Australorp, an Australian breed . Ginger we are not exactly sure yet. Could be Isa Brown . Our best guess. No snow here. We did have a strange antarctic blast recntly that did cause some freak mountain snow falls. As climate change kicks in we see more of this. All that...

Quote: Thanks for that tip. We already spoke of a third. Even before the first two came. At the moment, they will have to stay in the Chook Wagon. The property next door is under construction, and the fence on that side is half gone. Once the fence is replaced, we will cordon off a nice run...

I was aked this very question on my debut thread. So here's a cut&paste of my response then. " Buff Hooligans wrote: Gday, welcome to you and your chickens. Tell us how you came up with your screen-name. 12thharmonic.net is our blog (lack of posting due to other projects). The name...

I have to trim all those cable ties. I was caught out! I think we are doing pretty well for newbies. *touch wood*

The chooks have landed!The previous owner's kids named them Blackie and Oragnie! Ginger and Mary Ann! That's the ticket! We are pretty sure Mary Ann is an Australorp, and Ginger may be an Isa Brown? The girls arrived in a cardboard box. The walked out of it straight into the Chook Wagon. When...

Our Chickens just arrived! More after dinner. Wait, that's not... Um....... You know what I'm tryin to.... Pictures coming soon. I think we've named them Ginger and Mary Anne. UPDATE! https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=1238692#p1238692

Quote: Copy away. It was intended to work as a tractor. The house platform is tied into the PVC frame. I'll get it all in a blog post ASAP.

O.K Gail just named it! Why didn't I think of it? The CHOOK Wagon!

New images on the initial post of this thread. What do ya reckin!? Drinking a Happy Goblin to celebrate. A fine hand made beer made about an hour from here. Colin went from working in explosives to making beer. I like the new career.

Quote: 12thharmonic.net is our blog (lack of posting due to other projects). The name comes from a mix of mathmatical influences. I am a musician, and an audio engineer. So harmonics apply. The 12th fret harmonic is a favorite with guitarists. My partner has a thing for astrology. Not that...

Here's where I got to on day one. Tomorrow will be the chook wire all round and the steel roof and walls on the house end.

I did it, I signed up to the forum. I've been coming to this site heaps over the past couple of months. We will in a few days adopt two laying hens. I have almost finished construction of our PVC trailer (More of a lawn sled). Coming up nice I think. Using a nice size second hand dog house and...
