Yikes!! add scorpions to the list of things I don't like. I have a extreme phobia of going under my house due to snakes and spiders. Takes me 30+ minutes to work up the courage to go under and do something that takes 5 minutes or less. Not a fan of scorpions for sure.

Yeah, they are NOT fun. And they invade your house just like any other insect pest when the weather is weird/wet. I found a baby scorpion on the shoulder of an old t-shirt I was just about to put on to do chicken chores yesterday. That would have HURT!!!!!

Good luck with your week, sounds rather busy. A scorpion is not exactly what I would want to see first thing in the morning.

Well, let's put it this way - at least I got the most terrifying part of my day over with right at the beginning.

Yes, I have heard from Sally. She's feeling somewhat better, eating solid food and more importantly it seems to stay with her. She had hughsnet issue yesterday, wasn't real happy, not certain they ever got it working correctly. Today she and her mother are heading to the city to shop and have lunch.

Glad to hear she's on the mend - please pass on healing vibes to her if you get the chance...

My first incubator hatch was a success! Just hatched the last couple days, white jersey giant's
Five toed black skin white jersey giant white silkie crosses

I can't wait to see how these turn out!

Thanks so much! Am I wrong for thinking that the second one is better for not kinking? (The first has a lot of complaints about that...) And yes, I've learned to separate boys and girls now. But the boys still end up whooping on each other past a certain point...

I haven't bought any yet but I included a couple links of the least expensive ones I found a few posts back.

Ah, ok, you don't have them yet. Never mind my kinking question. I may just pick one and see how it goes...

No, but their good size hens, TSC 'silkies' not show quality. I planned on the other way around but the silkie roo drove me insane crowing all day and even at night non-stop! Got all them going. Off with his head! Mostly quiet now and no night crowing

Roos do that sometimes, and they suddenly find themselves floating in a big pot sourounded with vegetables!

That's EXACTLY what would happen to a night crowing rooster here...

@flocktastic Could use some prayers you guys. Her son decided to break his arm/elbow last night after supper. He's currently out of surgery but hurting.

Thank you for letting us know - I PM'd her. They can't seem to get a break...

So sweet....

All done!!! Love my chickens.

YUM!!!! (Me, too!)

Guess what I got today....

A pair of guineas! They are adorable.

-Banti

You mean a pair of car alarms...

They are both named Artie, short for Noisy Article. All my guineas are gonna be named that.

-Banti

Yuuuuup...

I love this - he looks like he's in the middle of telling someone off. Just like his namesake.

This thread might be better if I left.

No one else has responded so they are trying to be nice but really want me to leave.

Never!!!!! This thread is never better if anyone leaves!!!!

(We were all desperately trying to do a read back and catch up before everyone else went to bed - or at least that's what I was doing...)

Bubbles mom Priscilla and a few of her friends.

Is it just me, or do you have Showgirl Geese? (Or the Pointer Sisters?)

Good night

Good night I have got to go to bed.

Argh!!!! I never catch up before folks go to bed...

my view over the wkd, it was looking toward bar harbor

I haven't lived in Boston for more than 3 months at a time since 79, and I still see the words Bar Harbor and in my head I say Bah Habah....
