Jenski that garden is awesome! Did you do it all yourself? Looks like you've got a load of food in there.....wow!

Brown recluse info y'all! Little buggers are not only nasty, but they're one of the critters that can change sex! So if you get rid of all but 2 females, one will have the operation and they'll make more baby spiders. The incidence of 'recurrance' with a b.r. bite is quite high in spite of...

Tracyree - I second Troyerchick on the sand! A couple inches of sand will last for months, even scooping the poop every day. Get the builders sand, not play sand, as it has some larger pieces mixed it.....easier to work with plus they can peck at it for grit. Once it got cold this winter I...

And welcome to AmenFarm! Great peoples here! I remember the months leading up to getting my first girls........whoa! Have fun! Course, it'll get really good once they touch down at your place. Have that camera ready!

Matlock, I too, am praying for your wife (and you and the kiddo's who must eat your cooking for awhile! lol!). Wondering how she is feeling today! Blessings, to you all!

Gosh, Tish - they are beautiful! Not sure I'd of recognized some of those as chickens, but then I am certainly no poultry expert. They look far too cute. Those birdies could do for chickens what Teddy did for bears. Now I know the seniors are going to love whatever you and the Showgirls...

Tish, I want to hear all about the dealie with with Seniors, ok? They are sooooo going to love you and those birdies! Do they wear diapers?

Matlock, those are great pics. I've never incubated so seeing this is really cool! Bet the kiddo's love that part, too. What a great way to explain Creation to them!!! Hope you all have fun tomorrow. I'm teaching a Wilderness First Aid class ~ started it 2 weeks ago, but there was such good...

Sure wish we had known that chickens were so fun when my kids were little. They would have loved them (then) - now my son's a big tough military man and my daughter is too busy jumping out of airplanes to slow down and enjoy a chick. I now have 8 girls. The Red Star I got from Anne is the...

I was just thinking how much I miss this place (haven't been able to get on here lately) so I looked over the last few days........ imagine getting hit with all those cute/cuddlie pics all at once! Warning, Will Robinson, Warning! Think I'm ok now. But all those babies!!! Ohhhhhhhhh Have...

That reminds me, Radfarm - we need to set up a meet-up!!! CityGirl, yer our M'boro point man so choose a date and tell us when/where, ok?

I like the idea of a watering system. Maybe I could add that to the budget sometime in the future! CityGirl, I've seen the pics of your flowers and I can see why you'd want to keep them alive, they're lovely. Tracyree, I want your carpenter! Somebody done good! That's the kinda person you...

Hey y'all - sand works great! My coop originally was 4x4 with 5 hens - nest boxes on the side, using straw there. I have 2 old girls who prefer sleeping in the next boxes and I let them, as it only takes an extra 30 seconds to scoop the poops every morning. All told, I spend about 60 seconds...

morning all .... trying to convince myself to get out there and do some things 'fore it gets too hot. Not doing real well on that just yet... Love the chick, City Girl. Such an intriguing color. Glad you said that to Tracy bout the weird poops, cuz I've bout decided that my 2 are just...

Oh Holly! You are tooooo much fun! I so hope your young'uns remember all these neat things when they get to be all growed up and serious! "Yeah, there was this one time when Momma took us thru Sonic with a Cochin and..............."

So much to catch up on.... Troyer and Brown Chick, are Buckeyes a type of chicken? If so, I guess that means that they're not easy to raise? Will they go after copperhead and rattlers? Tracyree, glad to hear hubby's ok with the chickies! What's that saying, Real Men Like Chicks? Radfarm...
