I have a 2.5 y/o Barred Rock hen that's our house chicken. She's not been her happy-go-lucky self recently. She is going through a molt so she's not laying, that's not the problem. She gets a good quality feed, crumbles, not pellets she doesn't like them. She has free access to calcium/oyster...

I have a 2 y/o Barred Rock house chicken. She's a spoiled rotten little brat. But recently she has not been laying like she has in the past. In the past 30 day cycle she has laid 11 times. The longest stretch was 9 days. Since she lives in the house, the shorter days shouldn't matter. She...

DH ran his power wheel chair into the wall, huge hole about 12x18". While I was trying to get him settled and before I could get the dry wall cleaned up, I hear a peck, peck at the wall. Sure enough it was Zee, pecking and eating the little dry wall pieces. Forward, I finally have patched the...

Laughed my butt off, well almost...lol [] I guess you have to copy and paste, I can't get it to embed. It's worth it.

The three of us all have colds. Coughing, sneezing the whole nine yards. It's been fairly cold here 50-55 during the day and 35-40 at night and rainy and down right miserable for N.W. Florida. But to my question. Our 8m/o Barred Rock "House-chick" is acting strangely. She's a bit...

Our house chick "Z" has been laying for about 6+/- weeks now. Her eggs seem to be about the size of a medium store bought egg, OK so it's medium. But my neighbour asked me "What grade are your eggs?" Totally threw me. I know store bought eggs have grades, but what about home-grown? Oh she...

Besides taking care my DH, DS (who's home from the Army) my dogs, birds and of course my house chick "Z", the way I get to relax is to break out the Scroll Saw and place blade to wood. I love it. Here are a few of my larger projects. I do a lot of smaller things like ornaments, puzzles etc...
