    golden comet thread!!!

    I love this hybrid breed! Mom and I started with 10 "gold sex links" from Attwoods. They lay all winter, even without a light in their coop. People buying from us at the farmers market think the eggs look huge! They produce a ton of eggs every week. Dad had to sell some for us at his work in the...

    The Guinea Pig Chat Thread!

    Update: Hans is doing so much better! In fact, he has a problem most every guinea pig wishes for - he needs to gain weight! He ate lettuce to his hearts desire. Now he craves celery and carrots. He's been getting Timothy grass pellets (because alfalfa is high in calcium). He's still getting...

    NEW What Ya Got Swap! Please see post #1 for rules!

    I I'm pretty sure she is still the admin. Response time has gotten slower. I did finally get a response when I PM'd her, but she didn't answer my question about the value I should offer on a gift card. I dunno what's going on...busy life perhaps.

    The Guinea Pig Chat Thread!

    Hans is getting better! He's now getting his medicine orally via syringe every 3-4 hours. I learned that Hans is a stubborn pig. His medicine was dissolved in his water bottle. But Hans WILL NOT TOUCH that darn water bottle if he knows the medicine is in it. His stubbornness runs so deep, he...

    Texas

    You know you're from Texas when the weather outside is beautiful and we're preparing for a hot summer! Had a fish fry back home last weekend! Weather was perfect. I'll tell my mom about this trick with corn, herbs and garden excess. Our chickens could really use it on those hot days and we...

    Home Owners Insurance

    That's lucky! My close friend in Hot Springs, AR was given a list of dog breeds that would make her homeowner's insurance go up. A German Shepherd or Rottweiler would be more expensive than a Border Collie or a Lab. I'll be shopping for homeowner's insurance soon, when we get our fixer-upper...

    Court of Appeals rules for the chickens!

    Oh my gosh! I thought lawsuits over chickens was crazy, but someone went so far as to poison chickens?! Ruling in favor or not, there's going to be bad blood in that community for a while! I wish ya'll the best of luck and peace with your neighbors.

    Dupage County IL Question

    I was in 4H Club in Texas in middle school and all the way through high school. I was the kid-president of our small town chapter for a year. 4H is similar to FFA. Kids have projects (show animals, photography, crafts, homesteading projects, shooting sports) and participate in local competitions...

    Home Owners Insurance

    They really shouldn't count chickens as a farm in TX! Geez, the appraisal office for county taxes won't even let you have an AG credit for chickens anymore, because they are now an "urban pet."

    The Guinea Pig Chat Thread!

    My guinea pig, Hans, has been sick for a while. He started out with bloody urine and took medicine for urinary problems. Now, he squeaks in pain when he passes a cecotrope (the "poop" that is half-digested and they eat it to finish digesting the B-vitamins from their food). He is losing weight...
