Well I for one really appreciate that you took the time to do this for all of us on this thread. I think everyone either gleaned new knowledge or had some old knowledge reawakened. So THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! You are the BEST!!

Hides....I really like hides....I like to work on them.....cut 'em...skin 'em....scrape 'em down....tan them.....stuff them with silicone and hang 'em from the bumper of my truck with a cow bell!!! How's that sound girls! I have an ex that I would like to do that to but he ain't worth prison. 27...

I don't have any chickens right now and it's been a LOT of years since I had any. So I don't know if I qualify to participate. IMO only I would keep both birds. I think Bird 1 is your layer and bird 2 is a rooster. Ok I might chuck bird 2 in the oven if I got hungry. lol

I know exactly where you are coming from here Bee. I will get my chicks in the spring and they will be hatchery mutts but in time I am sure I can improve on them. It won't be the first time I have been down this road with animals and probably won't be the last. I have had some success in...

Some of us have just learned to keep our mouths shut and let the wisdom roll over us. I really think I absorb it much better that way.

When you bought these did they already come with everything you needed to mount them to the bucket? I wasn't sure if you would have to buy anything additional to mount them? I have looked into these and the nipples and the one thing I worry about with the nipples is the water that would hit...

Oh Pozees I think I love you!! I have Border Collies. One because he is what I chose to have and the other was a rescue. They are brilliant dogs in my mind but they are also VERY challenging! They are in constant motion and they are always thinking. One of the biggest problems for them is that...

I absolutely agree with you Pozees! I have rehabilitated a LOT of dogs and it does take a LOT of input from you. It also requires you to have the same attributes as the dog if you are going to be successful. It also takes time and dedication to make things right for you and the dog.

Beekissed, I really don't believe it is a problem with the breed of dog but a problem of the breed of owner. Dogs are very much like children but people either treat them like a baby or adult human. You cannot as a responsible animal owner just turn your animals loose and expect them to do...

This sounds very much like my border collies. They can REALLY focus and it is very difficult to break that focus. Training will very much help to channel that behavior. They are very brilliant dogs and it is amazing how quickly they learn things. One of mine has things down pat with just a...

WOW!!! You miss groundhogs?!! In the 5 years we have lived on our property my DH has killed at least 30 or 40 and the darn things keep coming back. We have plenty of coyotes but they sure aren't getting them either. We just can't get rid of the darn things. We don't have a lot of rabbits but...

Boy was I glad to see this post!!! I haven't raised chickens for many, many years but I was starting to think that my thinking was wrong!! I intend to order some chicks next spring and was just going to put them in the coop (with heat lamps, food, water, & bedding of course)....then I started...
