    Checking-In On Peeps - Post Here To Say Hello!

    I've been busy working part-time out of town. I do read alot of the posts, just don't comment. I still have my 6 hens that I just adore! My son built them a Chick-nic table & we've had alot of fun with that! Thanks for reaching out!

    How much do you charge per dozen? And location

    CKfarm22, I agree! Yesterday I told a lady I work with that I was dehydrating my eggs now & she said, "Well, there goes my free eggs". Yes ma'am! You're cut off! :D

    Is my Barred Rock a hen or cockerel?

    Not a good picture, but this was 2 weeks ago. You can see Lap Chicken is almost as big as the Christines now. (I just call them all Christine because they all look alike & they're all a little crazy like my sister Christine!)

    Is my Barred Rock a hen or cockerel?

    Thanks! I really hope it's a hen, because I'm really attached to that ornery little bird! All of the eggs from the Leghorns have been pure white.

    Is my Barred Rock a hen or cockerel?

    No crowing yet! The guy we got it from said the other cockerels in the same batch are crowing. I've had it for 2 months now. Thanks for your reply!

    Is my Barred Rock a hen or cockerel?

    Thank you. I will look tomorrow evening after I get home from work. It's very possible it's not pure bred. We got it from a friend who bought the eggs to hatch, so I don't know where it came from originally. I've had it for 2 months, & until we let it loose with the Leghorns, it was my Lap...

    Is my Barred Rock a hen or cockerel?

    Yes, I have 3 leghorns. They just started laying a month ago tomorrow. I'm not sure how old the Barred Rock is, but it's getting just about as big as the Leghorns now. I don't know how big Barred Rocks are supposed to get. Of course I have 2 Easter Eggers & 2 Plymouth Blue Rocks, but they're...

    Is my Barred Rock a hen or cockerel?

    Hi all, Today I went out to collect the eggs from my leghorns & there was a light brown egg with them. Is my Barred Rock a hen maybe? Everyone thought unanimously that it was a cockerel. It wouldn't stand still so I could get a good picture, of course! Thanks for your advice! Lita

    Do you like pumpkins? What types of pumpkins do you grow? Any favorite varieties?

    Well, after 29 years of my Ex not letting me have chickens, or more than one pupster, we got rid of him! 8 chickens, 4 bunnies & 3 pupsters are way better! We can do what we like now! And the lawn--I mean pumpkin plants--are growing nicely! :D:):D

    Do you like pumpkins? What types of pumpkins do you grow? Any favorite varieties?

    I just got some kabocha seeds in the mail today! I'm sure they wouldn't have time to mature this season in Oklahoma, BUT... Last week I was cleaning out a huge patch of weeds in my yard, only leaving what little bermuda, white clover & dandelions there were. I was going to transplant some...

    What are you doing to become water efficient?

    Oh my, they are destructive! The first time I ever planted a fall garden, just as everything was up & looking nice, an armadillo came & destroyed it! In his defense, he "tilled" it up in perfectly straight lines (following where I had watered, I'm sure). I chased him out of my yard with my...

    What are you doing to become water efficient?

    So do I. I water plants with it. We put gutters on the 16' sides of the chicken coop & have a rain barrel on the 2 ends. (All we need is rain!) Mulch around plants really helps conserve water, too. I'm really lucky to have a well. I keep 2 mineral tubs filled--one by my garden & one on the...
