Your husband is right to question 'her' gender. That's a cockerel, not a pullet. Sorry. - Krista

Hello everyone! Long time, no speak! I'd love to be able to say I'd been absent because things have been so wonderful and exciting and it kept me away from here, but sadly I just got swept up in the ordinary day to day of life. I did see, 3goodeggs, that you are missing one of your kids who...

She is a good looking hen! I suspected that she might be a she from the start (refer my previous post) and I'm so happy that was the result! - Krista.

Poor horse.... I'm sorry Margie, what a terrible thing to happen Krista x

I hope all the earlier talk of purple hair leading to babies is true...... I just put purple foils in my hair 2 days ago!!! Someone asked earlier (sorry, my memory fails me) what sort of cake we had for my birthday. I wasn't watching what anyone else was eating, but I can tell you that I...

Thank you everyone for your birthday wishes. I had a fairly quiet day, but a good one none the less. There was cake. Of course. Don't worry - I ate a slice for all of you! Krista x

Yeah, I don't feel like I'm asking for much DD. Just a physical person, to sit opposite me, while we eat lunch or have a cuppa. Or someone who wants to go to the library with me for an afternoon. Or watch a dvd. Or chat. My life is fairly mundane, it's not like I'm looking for a sky-diving...

Thanks 'Sour. Been a bit diverted with my accounting work of late, being that it's end of financial year here at the moment. Always a pleasure to pop in as time allows though. Don't worry, 3goodeggs, I have no intention of swapping one for the other. I am greedy - I want both! Yum...

Good morning all (or good afternoon / good evening depending on where in this fine world you might be!) So we are half way through Winter here, and when I look out my window I can see blue skies. This sounds ideal until you step out into the wind, at which point all your fingers turn blue...

Hey all Sorry for neglecting you recently. As you all know, I'm an accountant. And it's tax time here. 'Nuff said! Please pass the coffee and a calculator..... Krista x (PS: Hope you're all well. Oh, and I love your funny stories of late!)

I'm really sorry to hear you lost your dear girl, cluckcluckgirl. Very sad indeed. How exciting though that she may 'carry on' in a new chick though! Are the eggs in an incubator? Or do you have another hen wanting to take them on? When I saw your list of potential names, I thought to...

YIKES. I wouldn't feed them either! We don't have rabies here though. Your squirrels remind me of kangaroos. Not looks-wise, obviously. But we have a HUGE population of 'roos in Australia, as you would know. In Summer, food in the bush is not plentiful enough to sustain the ever-growing...

Darn, and yet they look so cute! Do they attack chickens at all, or just come for their feed? Krista

Prostar - I'm interested. What sort of foods do squirrels find irresistible? Like, what would you put in the trap to entice them? Is it true, like in the cartoons, that they like nuts? Krista

Morning all, I must say I was quite lucky as a child. Neither I nor my brother and sisters ever had the threat of having our mouths washed out with soap and water. There was not much need for it to be honest. We were raised in a healthy state of fear of our parents, and the worst thing that...

Mine's the 21st. This is turning out to be a BIG party!

Hey DD! My birthday is in July too ! Joint birthday party?! Krista x

Hi everyone! I had a huge couple of days at work, complete with a 500km round trip in the car. This morning I told hubby that I will be working all day, but I am actually spending some quality time on the couch. I've eaten nothing but toast all day. Well.....ok.....toast and three...

Agreed. That's two roosters you have there. Sorry.

At only 10 weeks old, I would suspect both of your barred rocks are cockerels. Their combs and wattles are simply too big and red for such young birds, and the 'more white than black' colouring makes me think roo too. That being said, I've never owned this breed before and maybe I've got it...
