Great job to Cheryl, Rob & Cheryl's chickens on the Today show!! That was fun to see and what a beautiful place!! So sorry to hear about your crummy neighbor's. We're having neighbor drama, too, and it's no fun. Maybe your neighbors will watch the show and soften up a bit (or at least...
Saw it & had to laugh since I am a regular viewer. It was fun to see the windup to the story & watch Jenna's reaction!! The BEST part is that BYC was mentioned & hopefully more folks who don't have chickens will get curious & come check them out. Great job to Rob & Cheryl (& to Cheryl's...
Nifty, I am so sorry to hear off your family's loss of Lemon and Brownie's injuries!! Did Brownie recover? I sure hope so... Even though I know this was a while ago, all my best to you, your wife, and your girls.
I haven't been on this thread in about a year and have been working to get caught up (on page #80-something of this thread as I type). Popped in here to see what the current happenings were and just had to send hugs to all three of you Buckeye folks who have lost beloved companions, especially...
Ahhhh, the perils of craigslist!! The seller should not have sent such a snotty email to you nor should he have told any interested party that they were sold when they weren't... That is all on him and don't give him a second thought if he's going to have a 'tude! Why give him the power to make...
kla37, Cool pics of chickens hard at work!! Our birds all have chores here, too!! The ducks and chickens are GREAT at helping to clear the drainage ditches around the driveway before the rains come of all the fallen oak leaves. The turkeys help a bit, but are better at big patches of leaves so...
Thanks for the information from everyone on the subject of NPIP testing and what you have found out about Myco., etc. I have not had a chance to complete my research on what I need to do to show birds yet, but I agree with Capayvalleychick about the birds being allowed to have a chicken's life...

That's the thing =\\. I could get NPIP right now, and could even show now, but should not and will not. I feel let down, I felt safe buying from NPIP breeders.
One of the show people said that commercial flocks test & cull for it because it can affect egg production, and that most...

I LOVE these pictures It's so cool how Odin's feet positively glow in the shadows!!
I haven't been back on here since we got hit by a predator last Spring and I lost 10 of Choco's babies in one night (found out later it was a cougar ). They were 4 1/2 months old. It came back this...

Rob, so sorry for your family's loss!! Your presence was certainly missed this year... Hopefully next year we'll not only get to see you guys there, but we'll get to help out with a BYC table!! That was definitely something else that was missing.
I had a great time yesterday meeting...

OMG! Small world! Where from there do you live? Tad is adorable, even the calf loves him! Yes I will be heading for the sale barn first thing!
Kim
LOL!! Yeah, we (you and I) were talking last year in the BIG barn about Buckeyes, Dorkings, and some how got on the subject of Dexters...
Safe travels to everyone leaving today!! We're nearly a couple hours north of Stockton and are having the worst fog yet in this string of foggy days. Can't even see our lower pastures...yikes!! We'll be leaving even earlier than planned tomorrow so there's no rush.
Wolftracks, Thanks so much...
Hey Everyone!! It's been quite a while since I have been on BYC (except for occasional lurking when time permitted), but it looks like I'll be able to head down to the show on Saturday after all!! Last year's show was my first chicken show, too, and it was such an incredible experience! It was...
Nifty, I have been gone from BYC for far too long and have been just beginning to catch up. Of course, I had to start with this thread!! Just watched the video of the 3 G'babies almost all grown up That is way too cute and silly. I love the noise they make. It sounds similar, though quite a bit...
