I dont know how they do it, but a year and a half ago, we were catching up
our butcher roosters for butcher and one escaped. I figured if he was gutsy
enough to fight his way free, he deserved his freedom.
He got HUGE this year, didnt weigh him, but my guess is over 20 lbs.
people thought he...
I think , for me, reading this situation, that its not so much the breed of dog, ( most breeds can be taught "most"
things, at one time or another) but its the owner.
I grew up with my father having a hunting dog kennel, my grandparents raised labs, chessies, collies, poodles,
at one time or...
I had a bantam buff cochin rooster ( roy) that lived to be 8, he was in great
shape, until he met my bullmastiff puppy.
right now I have meat broiler rooster that is over a year old, he is HUGE
he escaped when we were catching for butcher last year, so we just let him be.
He is a big kind...

nitrates , nitrites and phosphates. You dont need to have a ton of rock if you prefer more fish swimming room.
It depends on the type of tank you want, fish, or reef? the...

That is so crazy, I bred a bay filly with a star, purebred arabian, named her shekinah glory.
wow she would probably be 19 or so...
thanks for your kind words, that one is 16x24, its a nice size to work.
I bounce back and forth between oil and acrylic, people get tired of
waiting so long for the oil to dry so it can be sealed.
there are lots of mediums that you can add to acrylic to make it
feel more "oil like" that helps...
Here is one of mine 16 x 24 acrylic on stretched canvas, I did this awhile back
and hubby wont let me sell it, so I had an order and the person wanted a
smaller version , 11 x 14, I thought...no big deal, ok....UGH WHAT A
NIGHTMARE. ive done it 3 times and just cant get things right at that...
repeat after me....
come over here little tommy, jill and janey ( of course insert your childrens names as calling them
by some other name would be awkward)
..Mr. Rooster went to freezer camp for the summer, he is running and flying and playing
with all the other roosters. Having a great time!
so my coop is a horse stall in my barn, it is against an outside wall so we cut a large hole so they
can go in and out. THEY WILL NOT GO OUT.
this has gone on for a year, not like I tried for a week, and gave up. LOL
so, then I opened up the barn doors, in case they felt they needed a...
I have a 55 gal marine reef tank, I am obsessed!
do NOT get mandarins, they eat pods, and you need a VERY well established tank or they will not make it. I have a pair but
Ive had them a long long time and my tank is old, Ive stocked my tank with pods over the years and got them...
