Just curious as I've heard several different pays to pronounce Ameraucana. How do you say it...

Lost 11 Orpingtons to the heat this afternoon...and we almost lost a neighbor to the heat as well!

Thank God we found him in time!

Sorry to hear that Fluffy.

As for the pronunciation, why does my grandma still say uman, instead of human...

 

[zoo357]

I'm so sorry about your loss

My grandma always said zink instead of sink....

Here is a chicken question..I think my very favorite girl has broken her large middle toe. I took her to work and had a splint put on it as she hasn't been putting any weight on the foot since Sunday. Anyone else here have any problems with that ever happening. I did a search with not much info so thought I'd ask my addicted friends....

Oh no...so sorry about the chickens. Glad your neighbor is okay! That is so scary.

We have been having fall like weather...extremely windiy and cool. I think summer is gone for us.

This time of year is always bitterweet!

I have a White AM that had a broken toe, but I didn't find out until it was already twisted. She gets around just fine, so I'm keeping my

for her.

Yes, we found him laying under a trailer not moving, at first we thought he was dead, but he was still alive. We called his son and he came right over, and then they rushed off to the HO with him.

Yeah, that heat stroke can be dangerous. I remember several years back working alone in the back of a friends barn on a terribly hot day and nearly succumbing to heat stroke but I was lucky enough to notice the side effect and I staggered out to the old stallions drink tank and pretty much drenched myself in his water, lol. It was nice and cold but "Rebel" the stallion was looking at me like " what the blank".

Yeah, I laughed at "Rebel" afterwards cause he almost seemed concerned. He usually didn't act like that but was not a dangerous stud like some. So you can imagine better he was a Grey Polish Arabian that was slim and athletic. He threw great foals.
