    This just in...

    Omg! We have a large sofa in our bedroom which is on my husbands side of the room... Which by the way, I just happened to kneel on last night in order to look out the window so that I could see the chicken coop. So I guess I must have messed up the cushions a little. But! That's a darn good...

    I'm not a chicken idiot...

    Or am I? Lol My husband and I were both raised with chickens, and have had all kinds of birds from ducks, to parrots, and parakeets. With my Congo African Gray parrot I raised him from his hatch with no feathers, and all the hand feedings. Nail & wing clippings -etc. He was just like a baby...

    To refrigerate, or not to refrigerate? That is the question. Also... How long do eggs last in & out of refrigeration?

    Chicken winter garden...

    I have a little garden by my coop which I plan on covering with plastic -converting it into a green house so that I can get an early start on my seedlings next year. The simple 2x2 frame is already up. My plan is to let the chickens roam around inside and they can have at it. Swiss Chard...

    Newbie from Bowling Green, KY

    I'm new to BYC, but have been lurking for about a year researching as much as I could before ordering my first chicks. This site has been super helpful, and I'm looking forward to interacting with other chicken enthusiasts. My flock consists of some really great chickies... i just love them...
