Hi everyone - It has been a little while since I've been around. Maybe some of you remember my thread a while ago about my youngest daughter getting married...well, the wedding was June 26th and I'm reporting that everything went perfect. My old thread was about picking a song to dance w/ her...

And what do you sell?..... My wife doesn't do much on line, but she wants to find some hand thrown pottery coffee mugs as a gift for a friend. So I googled it and found Etsy....And after seeing little_grey_bantam's thread about her selling on Etsy, it made me wonder what else was available from...

Our PBS station started airing it on Saturday night. We've only seen 3 episodes, but we're hooked. It is really a hoot with quite a bunch of oddball characters...who all seem to take each other for who they are. I do not think they are shooting any new episodes, but the older ones are great...

Hello everybody - I've got 10 pullets (8 mo. old) living in a 8'x8' coop with a 16' x 24' run...they are a mix of barred rocks, dels., orpingtons and a rir. They are let out in the run every day. In the last couple weeks I've gone from 5-6 eggs a day to 1-2 a day (sometimes none). And at...

Ok, I've offered to make the stuffing/dressing this year for 2 different Thanksgiving meals (just trying to help out my wife )....but I've never made it before and probably for the last 10 years my wife's sister has made it for that meal, so we don't really have a tried and true way to make...

I'm gettin old and soft. I've hunted deer for the last 35 years. Never have killed one with a bow, but have taken probably 30 deer over the years. We eat all we kill and look forward to filling the freezer. A buddy has gotten me interested in shooting a bow....so I picked up used one and have...

Reading the thread about calling your doctor after hours got me thinking about our vet.... We had an old springer spaniel (Lizzie) and she was having all sorts of trouble on one weekend...She had a stroke on a Saturday afternoon. She was 12 yrs old at that time and we decided to wait til Sunday...

My girls aren't 6 mo old yet and I don't think all of them are laying....and we get 3-4 eggs a day from 10 pullets. And mostly normal pullet sized eggs..But on Thursday look what somebody left in the box...... ..... WOW!

I did a search and found that it's not too unusual for young pullets to lay a soft egg and then one of em eats it....but I'm not too sure what to do to avoid it....out of the 10 I have I must have 3 that have been laying pretty regular for the last couple weeks. The shells are real hard and all...

I'm a coffee hound. I drink it most of the day at work. And at home in the mornings....and on the weekends about all day... especially in the winter. I usually use a 100% columbian of some sort....and lately I've been getting Dunkin Donuts regular blend..and I like it real well...I grind the...

I've noticed these spots a couple weeks ago...individually they are about the size of the head of a pin.. She is a Delaware pullet about 20 weeks old. Here is her head...there are a few on her comb, but more on her wattle And here are the spots close up..... I don't think they are raised...

We are looking to buy a food processor for our daughter....maybe for a Christmas gift or maybe just for helping us in the garden and doing so much canning. My wife doesn't have one, so we have no experience to draw from (might get one for her, too)... but dw's sister brought hers over and they...

This feels like when we first had kids ...everytime one of them would have a fart crossways, we'd call our parents to make sure everything was ok... I've got a 20 week old pullet just starting to lay. This morning while on the nest she starts screaching like a hawk..I went in to check on her...

Hello - I've got a 5 mo old pullet (barred rock-ancona mutt) thats been on the nest for about an hour...from time to time she sings and clucks like crazy...but no egg yet. She's very flighty anyway and when I get close to her she freaks out a little.... She's only started to lay this week - 4-...

for me to enlarge my set up!! Although I just completed my coop and run in June, I've got the lumber in my truck right now to better than double the size of the run. I've got 10 hens in a 8 x 8 coop and a 8 x 16 (partialy roofed) run...the run will end up with the original 8 x16 with an...
