    Hello BYCer! My named is Cricket. I am a wife, student, business owner and farmer. I wasn't always like this though: I was raised around chickens and farming my entire life with my parents who immigrated to the US in the late 70s. Of course, being born here and an "awesome" teenager, I wanted...

    So it finally happened, my rooster tried to attack me. Let's just say that one of my bamboo garden stakes is a little broken and I have a nervous rooster who might be walking with a limp for awhile.. Maybe even end up in my belly soon, not sure yet.

    GotChicken? : Had a nasty scare this morning. I bought two Red Bourbon turkey poults from a Craigslister yesterday, not only to put under one of my broody hens, but also so my two month old Bronze can have some company. Set them under my Fiona (aka Evil Queen of the Coop) last night, and she...

    Just sent a brahma and EE/polish mix to freezer camp at my parents. The brahma I'm not so sad about, but the polish mix was a little sad for me.. Brittany was one of our first chickens, such a nice girl, but she wasn't laying anymore so I had to re-purpose her. I'm going to miss her, but now I...

    You know what? I'm actually OK with not running an incubator or having baby chicks... until Chickenstock that is! The only birds I want are Welsummers and I think a few of you are bringing those. They are the only birds I'm looking for now! That and geese... I want a few of those too... So...

    Quote: This is exactly what I've said for months. I have an opinion, but it seems I'm always wrong no matter what. Even if I say something as a joke I get jumped on. Just ask Cricket Are you talking about the time when you said if you saw my husband that you'd stab him in the face?
