Come on down, it's a blast and the weather looks somewhat mild for the day!! I'll be there with my 3wk old...
Hey guys, I FINALLY did it!! After 2 years of personal issues I've come full circle, and I just set 43 cochin eggs from my own ladies. YEAH ME!! I'm so excited. I've got a new guy in my life and this is all new to him and to have someone be interested in what i'm doing is SO cool. Yeah he...
I just picked up a yearling heifer, and my best friend got a 90 day bred cow last night at the auction. I had LOTSA fun chasing her after she busted out of the pen (cattle panel's...went right through em'), and whew, she's just a barrel of monkeys so far! Just wondered if anyone else on here...
Hi all, i'm looking to buy/trade for a pup. I'd prefer something quite youngish, hopefully just weaned or under 12 weeks old (notice i said hopefully ) i'd actually wanted a St.Bernard or a Great Pyr, but hubby says the shepard is as big as we'll go for now. I'm in mid-lower MI, Barry...
I'm working upwards of 80 hours a week, the b/p is up, the motivation is down, and i'm suffering from depression and on meds for it. I've lost 32lbs since the beginning of August because I'm so stressed I can't keep food down, or by the time I make it, i'm just not hungry anymore. This part...
I had a friend give me 2 heads of cabbage, one to put in for the chickens, the other???????? not a clue. I know you can make saurkrout, but what else? I've heard of using them to wrap something up like an eggroll, but what? Help! ~Tracy
Hi all, sad story here. My best friend and I went to Wolf Lake to the swap meet over the weekend. She got a beautiful Flemish buck to go with her does. She left him in the barn in quarntine along with the black spanish turkey poults, pheasant chicks and about 30 other chicks I'd either...
He left yesterday for a week long trip. I left today for Menards
I got the vast majority of stuff to finish the coop. When the kids and I got home, I had my son help me with the flooring. After about 15 minutes of work he looked at me and said "I wonder why Dad thinks your an idiot? Your...
I set 12 dozen eggs Wed. evening. Thought that ought to give me a decent idea of what's fertile and whats not, LOL
I put 25 pekin & welsh harlequin ducks, 6 dozen buff orps, isa browns & a few mutts, and 4 dozen ameraucana and some mutts.
Then, the Royal palm turkey started laying right...
Woohoo, i got my first RP turkey egg yesterday, unfortunately the cats got to it first :mad: I've heard the ole' hot sauce in a blown egg trick, anyone else have anything different? One of my students at school says lemon juice. I was getting upwards of a dozen eggs a day, now yesterday i...
I do woodburned pictures and I would like to do a few specialized breeds as awards for the Michigan 4-H Poultry Show in May. I need something that is royalty free and doesn't require permission (or else a name/email/phone # tocontact). The pictures I like are just black and white line drawings...
2 of my Saanen does had their kids Tuesday! 3 doelings and 1 buckling When I got home from work Tuesday night we'd lost the littlest girl, she was so tiny though, I wondered when I saw her if she'd make it. Now i've got one more doe to go, she's the one I thought would go first. I wonder...
I have what came from the mix of Welsh Harlequin hen and a Pekin drake...looks like a Blue Swedish only black. It reminds me of a ....? Can't seem to come up with it. BUt it looks like a blue swede, white bib, white 2 first main wing feathers, and is bigger than the WH an smaller than the...
Is there such a creature? I mean, yeah there is cuz he's out in my yard, but is this a standard color (i'm at work and don't have my chicken bible here)? He has the exact coloring of the blue wheaten hen shown on the Ameraucana website...but matches none of the roo's.
My daughter had a trio and one hen died, but the remaining hen is old. She has won very well at open and 4-H shows (even reserve grand champion one year and supreme grand champion the next), but I can't find anyone with frizzles and Liz just isn't wanting to lay anymore. We originally got them...
