    My sweet silkie boy fell in the goose pool

    He was breathing, but soaked and cold and shivering. Brought him in, dried him with a towel and then used the blow dryer on low warm which helped a lot. He is still lethargic, and I can hear a rattle which scares me more than anything ., . . what can I use for him to help prevent pneumonia?

    These are my geese, I was told the big one when I bought them was the boy and the rest were girls. We don't think so. We think we have either 5 boys and one girl (one has no knob, and a completely different feather pattern on its neck, and its a BIG goose, but shorter and stockier than the...

    After talking about it for four years at least, I did it . . .

    I ordered my chicks from Meyer Hatchery in March for a late April delivery, but couldn't get the breed a friend was wanting, so they arrived the end of May which honestly worked out better, because we STILL don't have the chicken house in place. I have them in a hallway in my house, tarped off...

    Weird or Old Home Remedies

    For swimmer's ear use half alcohol and half cider vinegar. Fill your ear canal as full as possible and let it "soak". Then put cotton in and reapply as necessary. Usually takes care of it with 2 applications. Works better than anything I have tried yet.

    Poaching eggs with Cling Wrap

    I agree, a lady I know use to wrap her potatoes in plastic wrap and microwave them, and I thought the same thing, all that chemical and toxins leaching into those lovely potatoes. . .Mircrowaves are actually not good for us, as it is, they turn good ions into bad ions and never ever heat a baby...
