CONGRATS TO OUR AWESOME ARIZONA PEEPER-KEEPERS!

Contests my 2-week-olds are having:

Who can poop the highest in the brooder.

Who can poop the fastest and biggest on the new bedding.

Who can leave the gushiest poop on mom's leg when she forgets to put a towel down. Bonus points if she has on fresh jeans and it gets worked into the fabric. Super bonus points if it is a cecal dropping.

Doesn't add up - what about the other 10?

WOW you are right! LOL. 19 infertile/clear. Kept screwing up the spelling of Infertile and backspaced the 1 away. I should know better than to type without spell check and rechecking my math around all these homeschoolers. LOL.

by what i mean i think they would not sell old eggs or refrigerated eggs
to people to incubate they would give the freshest eggs and not refrigerate
eggs so a happy customer would purchase again from them
good customer service is great to have but everyone thinks different
god does not help people when they ripoff other people when
you do something bad god is not happy sorry to be
too religous but i mean god does not compensate them

I could pose the counter-arguement "God helps those who help themselves." That is: I think you would be better served with a little due dilligence.

Most of the laws in the US work on the "Buyer Beware" concept---you are assuming the person was attempting to be fraudulent with the transaction. It could be (and is likely) they were just ignorant. Perhaps a few pointed questions, BEFORE your next purchase, will help you determine the legitamacy and/or the level of honesty the seller holds themselves to---as well as their knowledge level.

One of my 2 month old blue andelusion chicks has a swollen red upper eye lid. There is no drainage and she didn't squack when I pressed on it, nor is there any visible parasite. She is the smallest of the 8 chicks; I wonder if she got pecked. Any suggestions?

Also, one of my leghorn hens jumps up on my back when I go into the chicken run and when I turn my head she pecks hard at my mouth. Any cure for such aggressive and rude behavior? Ouch!

 

[LarryPQ]

She's pecking at your mouth because it is red/pink. Natural chicken behavior.

Maybe that's why my husband pecks at my mouth

Sorry, I'll behave myself....maybe

thanks laree i will remember to ask some questions before purchasing something to be careful
and if it does not sound legit or they dont sound honest its better to not buy and take a loss
in the gas rather than taking a bigger loss always ask question with anything you buy from
people lesson learn i will be careful next time so the same thing does not happen again is terrible
when you loose alot of money if it would have 5 dollars ok but when you dont work 30 dollars
is a bigger loss than when people have employment it does not make a big impact on a loss
to shipped i now ask enough questions before purchasing ask how they package and a couple of
questions on their animals how many days old the eggs would be
adding the time it takes to receive also thank you
