I love finding out about how such a verity of people end up in the same places in a part of their lives. Thanks for sharing your stories!

My runner (and my Cayuga, actually) guy is perfectly happy with a sled (like to snow sled) that he can step in and out of. He isn't really a fan of water. Strange for a duck, but still that is how it is. I can dump it easily every couple of days with minimal water waste. I can also move it...

I love watching my chickens. When I have a rough day, I find it very relaxing to go out and just watch the chickens. I love that they follow me around the yard. I think it is great that you continue to teach your grandchildren about chickens. I talked to my grandmother the other day and she...

I've been pondering why we decided to get chickens. There are several reasons, in our home. First, I'm a sucker for anything cute and fuzzy. It's true. Second, I started getting eggs from a friend of ours and they were so much better (also discovered that DD could eat them in small amounts...

My husband's name is Trampas, thus I am Tramp's wife or trampswife. :) After 17 years of marriage, we are still Lady and the Tramp. As for my avatar, these are my girls (and the ducks) cleaning up the garden after the first hard freeze this year. They love it!!

I'll post some when it is a nice bright day and we can see all of her sheen. I hope she is a good layer. She is my only non-laying mature hen right now. The RIR is the same age and has been laying for a bit more than a week. I'm excited to see her eggs. We have a colorful egg basket for...

I have 2 Ameracaunas, 2 Buff Orpingtons, an Austrolorp (I love the way she looks like she has a petticoat on!), a Rhode Island Red, a Leghorn, and a Cuckoo Maran.

My house was built in 1901. I think my coop was built just after the house. :) We have a large coop with 2 separate runs. One side with nest boxes for my layers and one without, for my dinners. We, hopefully, will be adding siding to the outside of the coop on all sides. We will be tacking...

Probably because the poultry doesn't talk back. With 2 teens in my house, I need all the uninterupted chicken time I can get...

Thanks all! I'm utterly Chick-addicted. My DH laughs at me because the first thing I do when I get home from work is check on my chickies and duckies. I should probably change out of my heels before I walk back there, but the girls just come running when I get home. The boys (my ducks)...

Hey! I have been lurking on the forums for quite some time. I realized a few months ago that every time I googled about my chickies and my duckies that I ended up in a BYC forum. So, in order to actually ask questions and learn, I guess it is about time to come out of the coop and introduce...
