EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

How does one approach a skunk that has been trapped?



Shalom Benny!



I'm sorry to hear this, I hope you can get the &$*(@



I hope the fox moves on and leaves your flocks alone.



Good to hear!



Once in a great while I might receive an email, but other than that the alerts when I am actually online seem to work.



:rolleyes:



That stinks, you'd think something called "The Standard of Perfection" might be more careful.
You'd think, eh!?

I've for the most part, have had a bunch of my roosters live peacefully together. 2 in my silky pen share 4-5 girls with out missing any feathers on any of the birds.
In Biter's pen, he lives with 2 more silkie roosters, because I love ging and bubbles and couldn't part with them, just because they were roosters and they are sweethearts... Biter allowed thing #2 to live with him, too, until we culled him for going after the kids. Thing #2 never fit in with anyone really, and wasn't even nice to humans. He got the boot.

The two big cochin roosters gotten eaten, because they were fine with people but trying to mate with our ducks, boys, girls, it didn't matter.

I have a couple of extra roosters flying around here, that I don't know 100% what they plan on doing, but as long as they don't attack people, i let my roosters be... but if they are assholes, we cull them, and most of the time we don't even eat them after we cull them because hubby doesn't feel they are worth the meat.

They could be made into delicious chicken stock or chicken noodle soup.
 
Good morning everyone! :frow

Now that I'm all caught up, it's time to get busy with my day. A few chores here, then I'm going to split more logs. :wee

Probably be gone till Tuesday or Wednesday. Enjoy!
 
Thanks Mike. It has not been back yet. BUT I have a couple surprises for it when it returns.


I have a ton of roosters that will never see winter...

This one is "Cuddles" despite the winter damage to his comb, he will be sticking around for another year on the show circuit...

Here he is standing on my knee, taking credit for the treats I gave him and his gals, while he watches the field for danger.

He does not know it but he is headed to his first bath of the year soon... He is not a fan of baths. You would think he was from the VWN.

Nope, definitely from MN. :smack

I can just see you with an apron on and a kerchief wrapped about your head, busily scrubbing Cuddles in a washtub filled with water and soap suds...
 
You forgot the oil to his legs and vetX to his comb...while I rub him with a gallon of glycerin.

Oh, I just wear a Tee shirt and a pair of shorts...HOWEVER......



This year I am thinking of bring him in and giving him a bath at the same time as I get one in the tub...It works so well for you and your DUX, and it saves water..

Atta boy. Next thing you know we'll have you speaking in French, hugging ducks, and drinking maple syrup.
 
Cuddles is shy in the tub....


His feathers are actually rough and discolored from the salve I put on his comb last winter to help preserve it. I was hoping for a molt, it has not happened.

hopefully, a bath will help molt.
