here's the question of the day! what website would be best for building a 3-D model of a chicken coop? I've tried Sketch-Up but you have to be on a waiting list AND you have to pay for it... any suggestions? I'll be a basketball practice until 5:30 so I'll check back later to see if any of you answered. thanks in advance!

I have Sketch-Up; I can't make heads or tails of it.

Yup. agriculture is serious business in Texas. If I had gone forward with the rabbits, I would have gotten these ones. (I had even already contacted them...)

We hatched four serama friday I think it was, she got her first ever all blue/silver chick!

Say hello to HATTER!

I may very well DIE OF CUTENESS!!!!!!!

I hatched those BCM I ordered from from Dave are
Randy Mashburn's champion lines, 1st year birds from Greenfire Farms 2015 French imports, as well as Brenda Little's French imports (Little Peddlers).

Every egg hatched, did I mention I only wanted a few hens?

I never figured you for someone to do anything halfway...

Started my day early today, so that I could come home early - I'm going to try to do that when I can during these dark times, to try to get some time at home before it's dark. Did a visual inspection of all the bird feet I could see (after someone posted on another thread about clipping nails), and I was glad I did. Almost all of my chickens scratch a lot in rocky soil, and therefore keep their nails trimmed naturally. But Lissa must have been dainty lately - she had some SERIOUSLY long toenails. Like, almost an inch!!!! So I managed to pluck her off of the perch without Dumbledore trying to tear me up (maybe he's learned some manners), and carried her inside while I found the dog nail clippers. She's very sweet and hand tame, so she sat calmly in my lap outside while I did the trimming. No bleeding except for one - then I spent the next 15 minutes trying to get it to stop. Couldn't find the styptic powder, so I used flour, and we cuddled for a while until it stopped. I took several selfies with her, but they are unflattering in the extreme (for me - Lissa, on the other hand, is lovely

).

Then I spent the rest of the remaining light digging another 6' x 4' hole, 12" deep. (Mostly done, need to clear some soil from the center.) One more down, two more to go, then I can plant the apple trees...

I was about to put up a really long post but instead I will just say this. I am so proud of Sophie for doing well in school, engaging in conversation and learning about her hobby and taking the time, care and preparations to raise a happy and HEALTHY flock! Great job Sophie!!! your parents should be very proud of you!!!

If there is anything I can do here in Michigan to help you, you can feel free to have your parents message me and I will do what I can to help you out to get the chickens you want!
