    Speckled sussex injured by hawk?

    Portia, I hope this isn't the first in a series of picking them off one by one. If so, I will have to keep them penned up. I went through a hawk scare this summer and haven't had any problems since, but I have a neighbor who has had everyone of hers picked off.

    Speckled sussex injured by hawk?

    I found my SS this morning with a 1/2-inch deep and 1 1/2-inch wide gash on the back of her neck. It was open and moist and looked like the other hens had been pecking the feathers out. I was so busy yesterday and didn't go outside to check when I heard a commotion and later when I saw all the...

    What's your favourite.......

    Quote: BearSwampChick, since when are the best hymns known the mankind "off-beat"? LOL, possibly a wrong choice of words? How about not run-of-the-mill and not ones that people normally think of when asked "What is your favorite Christmas song?".

    Quote: BearSwampChick, I do like mushroom soup. I have a question, the Hungarian paprika, is it different than just paprika? And where does one find Hungarian paprika? I hope you try it, the soup really is delicious. We had it in a restaurant in Camden, Maine. Then I just happened to find...

    Are you hosting Thanksgiving this year?

    Been doing it here for the past 8 years. We have 15, usually. I've been making out my menu today. Funny, it looks just like the menus for the last 8 years!

    For thoes who are currently feeling fearful....

    Quote: Well, we are talking about 10 second sound bites here. Maybe off-camera they expanded on their reasons for voting. Of course they are proud that an African-American won the Presidency! Why wouldn't they be? I'm not saying they shouldn't be proud, I'm saying that they should be prouder...

    For thoes who are currently feeling fearful....

    Quote: That's such a strong statement. Most people didn't know what they were voting for? See, it's statements like that, that throw a blanket over a whole population of humans, that make me very uneasy and also a bit frustrated. How can you possibly know what I knew when I voted? How can you...

    For thoes who are currently feeling fearful....

    Saying that most people didn't know what they were voting for is a pretty radical statement. Every person that I know studied the issues and the candidates and were informed voters. I certainly read everything that I had time to read and made an informed decision and, believe me, it was not...

    Congratulations USA!

    I think the people of the United States should give themselves a hearty pat on the back for getting out and voting in record numbers. I eagerly voted for our new President, but I was so glad to see a glimpse of the John McCain I used to respect when he gave his eloquent and gracious speech. And...
