We must be pretty close. Same thing here. It looked like it was going to get rough several times with the color of the sky and overall feel, but it was a really nice day. We got a heavy shower with some winds between 6:30 and 7:30. The night was clear and I was out fishing for minnows to give my...
I didn't really think about the hurricanes that blew through last year, so I really appreciate the reminder as that eases my worries a little bit. I've been really worried since my Mom told me that the meteorologist specifically mentioned our area. I haven't heard/watched the news so I need to...
Those of you in the Sandhills area of NC, what are you doing in preparation for the possible weather that's been forecasted? @3KillerBs I can't remember who else is in the same area

Just an FYI. I understand this is about wild birds but if you have drinkers available out in the open, this may be of concern. Stay well
I should also add that the fun of watching a bantam cochin walk/trot/run away (seeing their fluffy butts), is worth adding them to your flock! They have the absolute cutest fluffiest butts that just waddle side to side. I often call Carlos over just so I can walk him go back to where he was...
I am in the same area and County as you are, I believe (Moore County/West End-Carthage area). I have 2 bantam cochins, one barred rooster and one cockerel like @tn_artist (her girl is the cutest thing EVER!) , a white frizzled that's 8 months old. Throughout this past sweltering summer, Carlos...
My serama pullet is still quite young. I need to figure up exactly how old she is, but she's probably around 8 weeks, maybe older. I'll post as soon as I get everyone locked up for the night and figure up her age. My other flocks are made up of larger breeds than what I'd feel comfortable...
Hello neighbor! I'm in West End, so literally right down the road. How old are your Serama chicks now? I have one Serama pullet that my daughter (9 years old) and I absolutely adore.
The snow was beautiful! We ended up with about 2 inches, maybe 2.5 inches here in West End, NC. So much of the snow is already gone with the exception of heavily shaded areas. I didn't get out on the roads today but FedEx delivered here and I asked my driver about the roads. He said the roads...
I hope everyone is safe in this crazy weather we're having. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. It's nasty here in Moore County and we're really getting a lot of rain. Big Weather from ABC11 was just talking about the tornado watch so many of us are under. Stay safe
I have a very handsome healthy young Cayuga Drake and an equally handsome healthy Mallard Drake of the same age. They were both hatched August 7, 2019. The only reason I am rehoming my handsome guys is because they've started to hate my disabled Pekin Drake (still healthy but suffered from a...
Hello fellow North Carolinians! I have 4 (yes, FOUR) cockerels that need homes. I am located in Moore County (near Carthage, Pinehurst, Seven Lakes). Three of the cockerels form a Bachelor Flock. The head of this flock and one of the other cockerels are a mix of FBCM & Cream Legbar. The other...
