How old is he?
I wouldn't leave him out in a thunderstorm, LOL. I always treated my Chris like he was my own blood-son. When it came to his animals, if he didn't take care of them--I sold them and kept the money. As far as the video game thing, I just didn't/don't let my kids play them too...
My chickens free-range all day unsupervised on our land. We have a pom-poo, Bella, she chases everything away from them. She even goes after HAWKS!! I am raising a mini schnauzer x basset x heeler (UGLY!) mix to guard them too. He is still a puppy but is aggressive and will be large enough to...
I haven't started actually building it yet. lol
I am still going over the plans and trying to find the right fit for me. The concept seems uber simple though. Here is the design I am ripping off. I will probably modify it a bit.

Build incubators for your organic farm! I am making mine out of an old refrigerator! Its cheap and so far, not hard.

Its fun so far.
Hey again guys!
Does anyone near me (Crossville) have Muscovy ducks for sale? I can't buy now but want to get some this year when we can afford it. I cannot find any. I want to make them a big part of our little homestead. Any age is fine. I don't have an incubator so can't hatch eggs.
I want...
Thanks! Its nice to have the sound and stench of chicken in the house again, LOL.
If I could afford it and they were Khaki Campbells or Muscovies I'd take them Nella. I've been looking for Khaki Campbells and can't seem to find any local. I'd hate to have to pay $40.00 to have a hatchery ship...
They're here!!!
Mystery chick, RIR bantam? It is smaller than it looks in this picture. Its between the sizes of the leghorns, RIRs and Sumatras and sebrights.
I hope you are all having as good a day as we are!!!
I'm glad to see everyone survived the rain/snow!
All these sweet bitty pictures are making me crazzzzzzzy with envy! :barnie
Ohhh congrats on the new baby!
Did you guys notice when the robins were at your house they left zillions of bright red bittersweet berry poops all over the yard? It...
Thanks guys. I am gonna keep calling around. We have time before I'll need it for chickens but I wanted to use it with my other animals and around the house for ants and other nasties.
I called two or three local mom and pop feed stores and Tractor Supply. :-( No go. I got a PM from a member that may be able to help me. Man this forum is awesome. I think my husband is gonna have to take me *GASP* out of town someday to do some shopping, LOL.

I would never poo again--and be happy with it! LOL If I had 22 pounds of cheese I would weigh 500 pounds, LOL. I might be able to get my husband to take a cheese trip sometime, lol.
Cheese lasts you a month.
I think my momma went to Muddy Pond with her friend and ate some cheese from a store. Bet it was the same store! I may want to get in on that cheese trip sometime, lol. Is that price for a LB? Green onion cheese :O. Yummy!
No problem! I found a breeder around here that told me I can probably find a young cow for around $800.00. That sounds more like it. I will have to save, save, save!
Thanks! I am reading up about the bulldog and water baby traits. I am thinking maybe miniature Jerseys instead of Dexters...
