That is terrible. Is there anyone that lives near or works at the PO that could take care of them for a day or so if you let them know? This of course is conditional upon them actually getting delivered. I know that our PO would at least heat, feed, water them to keep them alive if you give them permission to do so. It made national news a couple of weeks ago in New York when a box of chicks was misdelivered. I would call the post office.

I talked the PO. They are going to ask all their drivers as they come back in today if one of them can care for the chicks overnight. I can only hope someone at least opens the box to give them water. Poor poor new line CCLs (16 of them!).

So, I have a problem. My neighbor is stalking me. He has some personal issues with us that I don't understand. It is a long and terrible story involving the entire city staff, police chief and Hate Crimes. I have never seen anything like it! His wife actually called the police and told them I was pointing demons at them and cursing them. He tells the city staff that his concerns about about my chickens and turkey's, but then in three sessions of mediation he has yet to bring it up. He brought up how we trim our trees, bothersome christmas lights, which side of the street we walk our dogs on and our weeding of the hosta bed.

But the problem I have is that he is using the internet to gain information about me. He has copies of posts that I have made online and is using them to create a case against me; particularly those that are posted on here. Do you have any ideas how this is possible? He has lists of everything I have written on Backyard Chickens. Is there anything I can do? I doubt he is particularly interested in chicken forums, so how did he find it? He is a community service officer, BTW. He also stalks my craigslist postings and flags them. Does anyone know of legal ramifications and steps I can take to increase my online security at this point? At the time he started stalking my posts, I didn't even have my name or any pictures listed?

I just unpacked my GFF chicks and I was shocked when I took the lid off the box. 1 blue columbian Brahma and 13 Partridge Barthuhners.

Yup, 13 of those buggers. One didn't make it. Talk about forcing me to move some chicks around. I was expecting maybe 8, you know 6+ but not 13 total chicks.

So much to catch up on!

I think one of the reasons I have three dogs is because I hate being alone in the house. With three dogs there is always noise and confusion!

My impacted crop chick is looking alot better. Now the crop just feels like it is filled with gravel

I think that is better then the staw that was in there though.


I am already starting to pack for my trip. Three weeks to go! I had my aunt clear room in her garage so I can set up an area for chicks. Older chickens will be going into a pen out at the barn. I will have some transport cages, but if I am moving chicks for you please have a box or cage just in case I need it! I drive a truck, older chicks, and adults will go in the bed of the truck. Young chicks will go in the cab. Please plan on including a heat pack if chicks are young enough to need them. I will not have any with me. If anybody has any tips for me traveling with all these chickens I am open to them! Should be fun!

Madamwlf: So cool!!!! extras!!!! when do you know wether they are girls or boys?

Herducks: as a beneficiary of your kindness, I thank you. cant wait to meet!

 

[CelticOaksFarm]

pysankigirl would you like your eggs shipped to Madamwlf (if she is ok with it) in time for when Herducks is coming through that area so you have them sooner rather than later? If so just PM me so I know when to ship them

My GFF chicks are lost yet again. They are probably burried under the 8+ inches of snow we've gotten since 7 am this morning. I give up. Every box of GFF chicks gets here late with high losses. The chicks were supposed to have shipped Tuesday but didn't get shipped until yesterday. I can't believe GFF didn't know about the impending storm. I'm snowed in. There is no way the PO is going to be able to deliver anything today. I guess I'm just not mean't to have fancy chickens.

Oh no!!! I'm so sorry!

Okay, not smoking, AND not swapping anymore this week is going to kill me.... Ugh

Best of luck! Quitting smoking=good. Quitting swapping=bad.
