Are there any oral wormers waterfowl can take? I'd give that right away, then I would change pastures/pens for a couple of months. A lot of rarer diseases and health problems with people and animals are under-reported and not widely known. I had a carrion eating beetle invade my leather seated...

That's a great suggestion

You are probably right about the speech, but at least they could cut out the part about the seat belts. I do apologize about the minimizing the good work the flight attendents do when I'm really irked with the scanning devices and the few taking advantage of horrible actions of terrorists...

Wait! Are you sure there's movement? Is it yellowish little dots or condensation?

I know you have to right, but it looks like a white chick and that's what the second bunches "W" stands for. My head hurts just thinking about it. ow.

Evil will find a way no matter what we do. The people that manufacture those machines that xray and see everything make money on FEAR. Do you really think they make you safer. Everytime you fly you hear the safety speech about flotation seats, oxygen masks and seatbelts. When planes crash...

I've been divorced eleven years and still have nightmares about my mil. If she is only in town once or twice a year, then count your blessings and just consider it your time to sacrifice for the greater good and remind yourself you can redo everything to your satisfaction when she leaves. Two...

How early can a chick pip and survive? I was turning my eggs today and noticed a hole with yellow goo running out and thought, "Oh darn a bad egg blew up". I picked it up getting ready to throw it out then I noticed a bill and a thick membrane and fresh blood. The chick was flooded with...

A feedstore in Huntsville called Garvins is loaded with silkies. They had 3 or 4 trays of different colored silkies that looked pretty good, with uniform colors in each tray. That said, I'm no silkie expert, just they looked healthy and each group of maybe 25 chicks all looked alike like...

Better keep her warm and rested. Resist fiddling too much and give her a little time.

My dad used to say there is a hard way and an easy way. We'd be robots without whimsy.

Check their garbage bin. People can be very insensitive.

Love those blue eggs, they are great layers too!

I had a big ole light brahma roo that had a very soft crow. He hatched out the same time as some ducks and considered himself a duck and even um err...even dated a lady duck.

Has anyone ever used those light weight wooden tangerine boxes for a nest box? My husband eats a lot of tangerines during the winter and I would like to recycle them.

I thought you were going to find a fox. I heard a lady screaming in the woods one time, it had an eerie surreal quality and sometimes sounded like a wild goose calling. I too called out, "where are you, can I help" "hellooooo" and was answered with more chilling screams. Later I found...

Seramas indoors? I used to keep button quail in a ten gallon tank. They lay very large eggs in proportion to their size and keep laying. Shipped eggs are very easy to hatch in 15 days and they are cheap and have many color varieties. They are not as friendly as chickens but might help till...

don't think the mess on her back will be a problem unless the other chicks start picking at it. Sounds like she will be just fine.

A couple of days ago I stayed out a little later than anticipated and got home about 30 minutes after sunset. Normally my chickens get in their coop about dusk and all is well and I locked them in for the night. The rare night I'm late my puppy knocked the fence open and my daughter rounded up...

When you say it will be ok in a couple of hours, how much of an egg sac are you talking about? The two times it happened with me, it was early hatching very active chicks that had large egg sacs hanging from flaccid umbilicous. They didnt absorb or fall off but pulled out more innards after the...
