Just curious- do you have a lamp on them 24/7? I used the MHP for heat with my chicks, ... when the light went out there were a few minutes of soft peeping then quiet til lights on in the morning.

This is by far the best emoji ever.

hmmmm i dunno i think this one gives it a run for its money <--- i love that one

diet is worse for you well that and diet soda gives me head achesbecause of the artifically chemically derived sugar. which as it seems by UK health standards (and the UK sugar tax i kid you not on that one) chemically derived sugar is better for you so now almost everything from juices to sodas and everything else (except plain water) is now going no "sugar" and being pumped full of aritfical sugars *rolls eyes*

my dog lilo she hates thunder and will sit and cry or run around she has a bad hip and is fat and the floors are hard wood at my parents house. she also does not like fireworks!

HAHA my 8 year old pit dont care bout thunder or lighting she sleeps right through it but my 4 year old pit (mind you shes the 120 pound fatarse) first thing she does is bust into mom and dads room and piles her lard butt right in the middle of our bed and will not move

Nonsense. The birds like snow.

...kind of... sort of... well, not really, I guess.

my chickens for one hate the snow and two when they get in the snow they freeze in place (ya know like have you watched a dog step in sumpin weird and there tail goes straight up like ewwwww what is this) yeah thats what my chickens do, so i go out to try and catch them and they cant run or fly away from me at all, i went to jump at it to catch it, it didnt move and i almost feel on top of it and just rolled off the side and in the snow bank, i swear the chicken was laughing at me cause i look like an idiot rolling around in the snow ( the cows were also watching me be an idiot but they cant laugh cause they do the same thing) like i never seen a cow go outside drop to there front knees and rut the snow and dirt like a dog its freaking hillarious

LOL I tell my rooster to shut up when he crows oddly enough he listens.. well until I go back in the house then he crows 3 times and struts around lol. I also call my chickens by clucking at them. all but 3 chickens have names and there names are based of mythological gods/goddesses for the most part. But seriously no way in hell I'm going outside unless I have to I'm still use to hot cali weather (I really don't think ppl from cali really know what cold is!) lol

thats funny i talk to my animals all the time and my call sign is a plastic bag because (cows and chickens) all know what is in a plastic bag some sort of treat and everyone comes running

Mine refuse to come out if there is any snow on the ground. They will fly over what’s on the ground to get to clear patch. If they’d step on it it’d melt but they fly over. SMH

I talk to all my “kids.” The chickens know the sound of my car. When I pull in they come to the fence to see what I have. Plastic bag a tell tale sign of treats to come. So spoiled.
