What a hideous ignorant person. Better off not dealing with that one.

Did it give you 'goose bumps'?

Thanks for the link, your post was fun (well, fun to read...probably not so fun to live through)! Do you still have geese rampaging about your yard or are they in freezer camp now?

You got that right!

And we're hoping to do a few meat birds and a couple turkeys next year. I would also love to have a couple of geese. LOL, funny how things escalate!

We're the same. We have 16 chickens, 4 breeding meat rabbits with 13 youngun's, 2 goats (we've had as many as 6). We have 1 big garden, 6 raised beds, citrus trees and 1 humongous garden. All on 2 acres. Yep, we're a mini farm too!

I wonder if it's due to this...chickens = farm and farm = lots of land?

People do eat horses, it's just that sometimes they think they are eating beef. Oops.

Whoa, I didn't know they (cows & deer) would do that! Guess that's my BYC lesson of the day.

Thought you all may enjoy this;

I've seen them in the Grade A store eggs too. Never thought it was a big deal as they (both the store bought and our eggs) are so small.

Every so often one of our hens will lay an egg with a blood spot in it...just a tiny one about the size of a pencil dot. If you want to see more about it, check out this article. The one pictured is much larger than what we've ever seen. Oh, and we don't have an alley for a garbage truck to...

Just the usual talk about chicken-headed-ninny-muggins'. LOL (Sorry, couldn't help it.)

Nope, it's not just you!

The gal I fired threatened to sue the company because she had been allowed to act that way for years. What she hadn't counted on was that I was tracking the number of personal phone calls each employee was making per month for about a 3 month period. There was an auto-generated report that was...

I used to have a gal that worked for me that was either very late or absent at least 2-3 each month. Every time she claimed it was because she hit a deer and couldn't drive. If she had truly killed every deer she claimed, in a 12 month time period, NE KS would have had a zero deer population...

Guess I should have added "warning...gross out pic ahead", lol. But really, the article was interesting, sure hope I don't ever see one in our coop. Looks like really bad news for the hen that dispels one. You can read the entire article by clicking on the heading on the link I sent. Oh, and...

I came across a photo of a "lash egg" before reading the latest discussion here. If anyone wants to see what one looks like, here's the link: http://www.the-chicken-chick.com/ (Scroll about 1/2 way down the screen to see)

Now that was brilliant! I grew up in Topeka and had to see that freak show on display at least monthly.
