Quote: WHAT?! 41! Lydia, I've met you, seen you with my very own eyes and I just can't possibly believe that! I would of easily guessed YOU were in your early 40s, no WAY I woulda guessed you have kids that age! Goodness, you have aged very, very well I must say.

Quote: I did see the link that BHep shared a while back on incubators...I was stoked because they have a whole classroom kit!! Trying to decide if we want the classroom kit or if it would be better to have our children learn from the hens themselves. I can see pros and cons for both. The...

It's a gorgeous day in WNC!! I hope everyone is having a great day! Went home at lunch and every single one of my girls were out completely melting in the sunshine, gotta love that one-leg out, dead chicken pose! My little olive egger is still holding on, eating a tad bit more and still talking...

Thanks to everyone for the kind words about my sweet girl, very much appreciated! Not many folks around here understand true chicken love like you guys do. BUT alas, all may not be lost! I went home at lunch to check on her and she was significantly more alert and mobile compared to this...

Quote: WOW! THANK YOU!!! This is a huge, huge help. I don't want to make the poor little girl worse, I'm just starting to get the feeling that if I don't do something, she's not going to make it much longer. Goodness, wish you and Lydia could come on over and help me with this! If you do...

Hi there my NC buddies!! I haven't been able to haunt the NC thread in my usual fashion, been too busy taking advantage of the warm weather and cleaning up coops and garden!! WHOOT! BCSilkies- Sandy, I'm so sorry to hear that your husband has been ill, but SO happy to hear that he's doing much...

Quote: Goodness, that would've been so much fun! Next show, I'm going to have to suddenly "come down with something" and hightail it to Bat Cave! Get a good night sleep everyone, can't wait to see all of you!!

Quote: If you're planning on locking them up every night, you could just cover the top with deer netting, that's what I've done. Pretty cheap and will keep the hawks relatively at bay. Not raccoon proof for sure, but it's worked for me for several years now. Do need to replace it every once in...
