Five years ago we lost our home in foreclosure. That following Monday my husband lost his job. His mom and dad allowed us to come live with them, but wouldn't allow us to live in the house. They set up a futon, our fridge, microwave and TV in their garage. Clothes, towels and rags were stuffed...

I've tried to raise chickens for the last two years with no luck. I decided I want to try ducks this time. I love ducks and my husband is especially fond of them while he didn't like the chickens so win/win. I was looking at maybe ordering an adult pair of Saxony ducks from Holderread. If not...

I'm sure we've all had that moment when either a well meaning person or a superior type tells you something that's painfully obvious. Here's a gem from my mom - Last night we hit a deer. I posted on Facebook, "We hit a deer tonight. She's probably fine except for minor injuries. Then when we...

Back in November my mom emailed me out of the blue asking if she had mailed me the deed to some land I owned. I replied that I was unaware I owned any land. To answer her question also stated I had not received anything from her other than my birthday card in February. She told me she had...

This hound has been wandering our neighborhood for around a year now without a collar on. She's been bothering all of the neighbors and their livestock. No one has claimed her as their dog and the warden is done with coming out here to try and catch her. Thankfully, she hasn't killed any animals...

I typically only get cards on my birthday and for Christmas. My brain immediately thought it was a birthday card since it isn't Christmas. I had to remind myself that my birthday is in February. It turns out the card was from someone I didn't know who lived in a place I have never been. It was...

I would like a unique and/or cute looking rooster (or roosters) to add to my flock. Mutts are okay. Any size. He must be friendly and tame. I'm in Marengo, Ohio (45 minutes north of Columbus, Ohio). Preferred travel time for pick up would be up to an hour one way. Please message me with...

Today I went to see the doc for a long overdue eye exam. My main focus was to get new reading glasses, but I've been having issues with distance too. After my exam the doc suggested I get bifocals. Being 26 the idea of bifocals was instantly depressing. I was reminded of my grandma's coke...

I have two dogs that were around 8 weeks old when I got them. My 3 year old lab/heeler mix, Skyler, is very smart. I had her trained in no time. She's super friendly and gentle. I can't say a bad thing about her. Then there's Mochi, my 2 year old bichon/jack russell mix. I have yet to make any...

Hi! I'm Kel from Marengo, Ohio. I'm 26. I've wanted chickens my whole life and finally got some this past spring. I've been reading this site and every book I could get my hands on for some time now. I'm still collecting chicken books and magazines for pleasure reading. I have six chickens...
