    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    My Baby Curely seems to be getting tired. She is a very protective goose. I finally saw her outide with the rest of the group at grape treat time in the afternoon. Then she wandered a bit, took a short bath and went back to work! I wonder who is going to claim raising the goslings this...

    Rooster developing black and also white patches on comb, hen with raised white spots

    Picture Of The Week (POW) Information & Submissions

    Well it was just part of their lives that most people do not do anymore. I remember my sister would not eat chicken for years because she saw the head of a chicken chopped off and the bird ran around in a frenzy afterwards for a bit. I think I could butcher poultry if I needed to, but I...
