First Annual Cinco de Mayo Turkey Hatchathon- Join us! Set Day: Easter

[ChooksChick]

For some reason I keep seeing this:





That is so cool! Do you ship hatching eggs? Darn...... You really need a disclaimer against temptation on your posts too...

I have to say, the idea of dressing in a costume of Barney to hang out with my Liger was one of the better choices...why didn't anyone try to stop me from choosing a chicken costume for feeding time??

YES!!!! XL camo coming right up!!

And I see that you are fresh meat new blood new to our thread, so I've added you to the list and you are required invited to come and visit us all often! What kind of turkeys to you have/have set?

Not really new here . Been here several times and regestered my set of 22 eggs. I set self blues, blue slates, and bourbon reds. I just get to check in here from time to time. Really busy with my birds and bators. The 22 turkey eggs that I set Easter made 63 total set right now, not too mention the 60 silkie eggs, but I love it.

Thanks for having me along for the hatch.

I'll take my straight jacket in a large and purple with pink polka dots. On another note my dog just bit my husbands cousin. We will have to take him to the pound. He bit me once and my son once, this was the last straw.

I hate to butt in here, but if you love or have ever loved the dog, take him to the vet and have him put down. Call around and check prices, go with the cheapest, they all do it the same. It is the kindest way. He won't have to spend time in a run, without family and not understanding. He won't go through the "gas" experience or the freezer or what ever method they use. The dog can not be adopted, the vet has the same outcome as the pound, only faster, and more tranquil. I know it's hard, but you can walk out as the shot is about to be given. It is more expensive, but what price is peace of mind, knowing you did it the easiest way for him?

Sorry, off my soapbox now. I had my horse put down Wednesday, it was terrible. He got down sometime before daylight, I got there at 7:30am, he was suffering and the vet couldn't get there till 2:00pm. Then he asked me if I was ready! I told him I had been ready since 8:00am.

I know they would put him down, that is why I was bringing him there. He was struggling so much to when my husband was trying to load him into his truck he had to shoot him. You have to understand he attacked a 10 year old child and needed to be gone then.

to both Wisher and cmfarm. Even when the pet does something wrong and has to be put down it isn't easy.

Thank you. It was hard. He was a good dog most of the time. We had him since he was a puppy. Something just snapped in him lately, not sure what. About 4 weeks ago he bit me and it was really weird. The boy was just running down our driveway to our house and the dog came out of nowhere and jumped up from behind and bit him on his neck and next to his eye. Thankfully I heard him screaming from in the house or I don't know what might have happened. Sorry about your horse Wisher.
