Thanks for input RE my hen, and I LOVE the idea of "cloverbuds!" It really made me giggle. Get 'em hooked young! I wish there was a 4H for for the over-40 career changers! Perhaps "Dormant Seeds?"

Hello everyone in AZ! We live in Cave Creek and are the proud new owners of 4 baby chicks. (well not babies anymore, they are 5 weeks old!)

Thought I would share our awesome coop built by our company, The Happy Handyman. It is so nice, I want to move in. We have 3 dogs; Rocky, Bogie, and Bennie. You can see Rocky in the pic. So far they are quite excited about our feathered friends!

Congrats to everyone on all the new additions to your chicken families! Petra, I always wanted Blue Laced Reds.

Happy 10th Anniversary. Hubby and I celebrated our 10th on Feb. 2nd. 2002 must have been a good year to get married!

Welcome to all the new people.

Hope your babies show some improvement Mikey.

I would love to own some Olive Eggers one day.

I hope I got everyone covered. If not, I apologize.

Sad news here...I had to put my GLW Francesca down today.( actually my vet did it for me) We thought she had impacted crop at first. Did the olive oil and massaging but it never passed through. Then my Vet taught me how to tube her and flush her. Couldn't get much out of her. Took her back to the vet again and both said she needed surgery. (Took out 2 lbs of stuff) They found newspaper??? I dunno where she got that from. They also found grass and cracked corn. Monday was her one week post op check up. She wouldn't eat or drink since this all started. Her crop was full of mucous. Vet got that out. She seemed better on Tuesday but today her crop was full again. In the midst of all this, she was having trouble walking. She hobbled on her hocks. She couldn't stand up at all. At her check up today she just slept most of the visit. She weighed 2lbs. Her comb and wattles were withered and turning a little purplish. We came to the conclusion that she will not get better and I knew that she was ready to go. It was not easy to say good bye. ( that's just me)

This was taken Saturday. 4 days post op
RIP Francesca May 2011-March 2012
