    Chat is glitching.

    Chat is glitching terribly. This is nothing unusual. Chat has been useless over 5 minutes because a member that logged out and is still caught in a revolving door. Someone please come fix it.

    Poor snake.

    I have a BSL hen who has gotten in the habit of egg eating. I put a golf ball in the nest to break her of it. I was sick and did not collect eggs yesterday. When I went this morning my golf ball was missing. I immediately decided the only way it could disapear is if a snake ate it. There was a...

    Anyone ever tamed a wild kitten?

    My cat got run over a few months back and I noticed his girlfriend (a wild stray) being followed around by a kitten. Once this kitten is weaned I plan to try to trap it and try to tame it. Being that it is most likely my cats offspring it is kind of a sentimental project, Would it be possible to...

    Just a friendly little reminder.

    On public forums such as this you are interacting with real people with real feelings. Sometimes some of us get carried away and say things we should not and hurt others feelings on here. I think the best thing for all of us to do before we hit submit is read our post and ask ourselves a couple...

    Found a ferret. What can it eat?

    I have rabbit food, dog food and sweet feed. Can the little guy eat either of these until I get him back to his owner?

    Barred rocks and predation?

    I have several breeds of chickens. I have failed to put all of them up at some point. My banty and my buff orps lived outside the coop for months. The only chickens I have lost to predators are barred rocks. Could it be a coincidence? Could they be a dumb breed. Is there something about their...

    How do I trap a bobcat?

    I have a problem with a bobcat. It has not bothered my chickens yet but it is wreaking havoc on my poor cat. What bait is best? Do I need to camouflage the trap somehow. Any tips will be appreciated. My cat will be stuck in a large cage so he can't slip outside until he heals and the bobcat is gone.

    What types of dogs are ok with livestock?

    My nephew wants a dog and does not want a little one. I have goats and poultry so naturally I want him to get a dog with a low prey drive. I don't particularly need a working dog just one that will no as likely make a snack of my animals. We want to get a puppy so it grows up around my animals.

    Food for the needy.

    Just a reminder that the present economy has put more of a strain on the food banks. More people are utilizing the charities that distribute food while less people are able to donate. I know everyone is not in a position to help but ever little bit does help. I am not affiliated with any charity...

    Skylight?

    Has anyone ever installed a skylight on the coop? Did your egg production improve any with the extra light? The days are already short and my girls are staying inside. It is pretty dark in there.

    Ignore feature possible?

    Would it be possible to get an ignore feature added to the site? Anytime you have a gathering of people you run into the possibility of a couple of people not seeing eye to eye. Both people may be great people but they just get on each others nerves. Not everyone is super tolerant and not...

    Tomato Sandwich.

    Who here thinks a tomato sandwich is just awesome? I don't mean the store bought tomatoes. I mean the ones vine ripened in your own backyard and grown with no chemicals. I don't have to have a BLT although they are great. Just give me a ripe homegrown tomato, some dukes mayo, fresh ground pepper...
