Big Day! My chicks arrived today! Yip yipp yippie!
There's 5 little gals, and they're all in great shape. They're running around the brooder and konking out, then running. They seem happy. They're cute as sugar coated buttons.
My question is this: When I poke their little heads out...
One of my killer siamese cats got a hold of a baby rabbit, but it's still alive. The rabbit is old enough to look like a mini rabbit, furred, about the size of a rat. We found it panting lying on its side. It has some marks that might not be puncture wounds, just cat spit but right by its eye...
My chicks are due to ship the 30th and arrive by the 2nd. Up to now, I've had great customer service, but suddenly I've fallen into an email blackout. I've sent three emails with no response at all. I'm due at an out of state wedding around the same time, so I was just trying to check in to...
We just moved to a house on a lake and we were wading in the shallow water during the heat wave. There's a lot of algae there. When we stepped out, my 2 year old daughter had a leech on her toe.
After quietly freaking out I had to ooohhh and ahhhh over the cute little leech so she wouldn't...
Depends who you ask. But it seems to me based on the AKC's response that they are "pure" labs. The AKC calls them pure, but says they are dilute chocolates. You can't register them silver; you have to register them chocolate. But they have light silver, like a weimeraner, and a charcoal...
Hey there! Anyone have a silver labrador retriever out there? I'm interested in them. Notice any differences in behavior or hardiness? If you like them, do you know a breeder? We are in MA, but would concider shipping. Ideally, I'd like a silver and a silver factor chocolate. Maybe breed them...
I love love love animals, but if I experienced something like that, and I knew the police would not act, and I felt that the dog was likely to hurt a child from my family, I would kill that dog.
I would stop making noise about it with the police because it only makes it more obvious it's you...
We like to name our animals after other animals. She looks like a Lamb, or a Moth, which might be funny when she's hugenormous. The only exception was our macaw. We named her Delicious. As in, "Quite down in there! Don't forget, you're Delicious!"

Thanks for all the great advice. Our current dog is a 17 year old mutt I got at anti-cruelty in Chicago. He is all of the things but the shedding on my list, but I feel like I struck a gold vein. I'm nervous about adopting any dog, and he's declining so he likely won't live through summer...
Hi there! I live at the end of a 1/4 mile long private road, on a lake, in MA. We have a 2 year old and 3 siamese cats. I'm looking for a dog breed that 1.) is good with kids. 2.) good with cats 3.) good with chickens 4.) will like water 5.) stick close to home without an electric fence... and...
