Fuzzy's Farm

[Gigiintheforest]

2 years. But our fence is very good, woven noclimb and weaves back and forth between pretty heavy duty posts. I figured it was better to spend money on a really good fence and gate in order to solve problems before they develop. Plus we have tons of toys in their pen so they would rather hang out on top of the little tykes play house. Yeah, they are spoiled.

OK, for the mom-itis cure............on the EE thread they posted 2 links for the hen actually being the culprit to being a rooster breeder.........

" A hen is born with a number of eggs she can produce. They don't make more cells for the eggs; From what i've read a father contributes to the number of cells she is born with. Henceforth how good a layer she will be.

So if mother makes gender, and father determines how good a layer she will be, what i got from this is to put your best layer's dad with your best pullet making hen; best of both worlds! "

Cool, Fuzzy!

Well I have never had good luck keeping a goat in. Even with chain link they would get out. Much rather have my sheep. They only get out when I open the gate and let them out.

more chattiness i see and of course its all when im not around lol

well guess hubby is all set to leave in a little under two weeks or so .... hopefully this company does not send him back all upset ..... if they do not well guess i will start planning my MI trip in earnest ... cause it means within a month he will be making money ....

it also sadly means i will be stuck all alone here .... have to give a little to get somewhere though ... it also means he will be gone thru thanksgiving and possibly christmas

Such pretty chicken/ground parrots lol i love fluffy ball chickens ... had too roos randomly decide to fight with each other .. they grew up together and have been in quarantine together for over two weeks now and decide they want to disagree on everything .... if it does not stop by in the morning the fight picker is going in the small crate alone for awhile ...
new eggs in bator staying between 99.8 and 101.2 ... i think thats a good range ... will be candling tommorow just to check things out ....
