This may not be the place for this, and if not, I'm sure someone will let me know. I'm located just off hwy 82 half way between Locust Grove and Peggs.
Last October I ordered a bunch of chicks, my theory being they'd grow up over the winter and be laying by spring. My theory worked well as...

Hi BigIslandChicks;
Of the 2 houses we like the most, one is in Hawaiian Parks (not Hawaiian Paradise Park) and the one we're kind of hooked on now is in Hawaiian Beaches.
My daughter was offered a job, through her current employer, in Hilo. We are seriously considering the move, but a lot of things would need to be done here first. Not the least of which is selling our current house and land in this economy, and rehoming 41 birds.
We've been working with a...

It could be a Wyandotte.
Thank you Mahonri, you have made me feel better today. I know I still could have been duped on my Ameraucanas and it could be one of them laying that egg but knowing that it could possibly be a Wyandotte makes me feel better! Even if I do find out that I have...

I know some will tell you to keep trying with your Father. I'd have a hard time blaming his wife, him calling his own children is his responsibility, not hers. He's a big boy. I just wouldn't even bother with him myself. But that's just me.
Sneezing into the crook of your arm is only an alternative to sneezing into your cupped hands, especially for kids. It makes perfect sense to me. Where are you more apt to spread germs?, from your hands or the crook of your arm?

Michael Vick should be strung up. What a waste of oxygen he is. Personal opinion. And no I don't think he has "paid his debt to society".
I'm a die hard Dallas Cowboys fan (I miss Troy & Emmett). The Cowboys are having a bad year, but that's what being a true fan is about, saying...
My Grandson (5) isn't big on candy, but loves fruit and pastry. An apple & an orange are always in the toe of the sock. Mini bananas on top. In between some suckers, cookies, packets of different flavored Hot Cocoa mix and small toys. This year his "thing" is Star Wars action figures, so...

I haven't lived here long, but the rural water district here is going to get an earfull Monday. We lost water yesterday, yep, middle of Thanksgiving. Thought it might be our line, but no, the neighbor about 1/4 mile from us doesn't have water either. Something I hadn't noticed...
Eat them, give to son's family and to some neighbors (traded some for some really good peaches). Sell some, freeze some. The chickens and dogs love scrambled eggs, so there's no waste here.
The mysterious egg my GLW hatched is, unfortunately, a rooster. He started crowing a few days ago.
From my 6 hens I'm still getting 4 eggs a day. 1 GLW, 1 Brown Leghorn, 1 California White and 3 Cherry Eggers. Deviled eggs are on tomorrow's menu and I have plenty. The only eggs I'll need...

Have you taken the bodice apart and completely recut it, instead of trying to take it in that much? That's probably what I would do. I made my daughter's bridesmaid's dresses and her wedding dress. She liked the bodice on this dress and the train on that one and the skirt from that...
You know what's really sad? Adults that bully. I had the displeasure of working with a major bully for years. She was best friends with our Director's wife, and Godmother to one of his children, so complaining would only be hard on you, not her. I can imagine her as the schoolground bully...

Call animal control and/or the police NOW! Those dogs are DANGEROUS. How would you feel if ANOTHER CHILD was bitten and severely injured, knowing that YOU could have prevented it, or at least made an effort to, by reporting the dogs?
I understand that it is a miserable situation for...
