And why do you 'spose I made it bold!!!

You need this.
If you're going to say suppose in a shortened form, you should say s'pose, not 'spose. And because that is an interrogative sentence, you need to put a question mark after it.

Banti, help!

no P??

It's running down his leg.

Except for "Me thinks", you aren't too bad. (But I have been known to say thats, dont, and aint before, so I can't judge!) -Banti ETA: I just never thought of you as the grammar corrector type.

LOL! In real life, that is all I seem to do! I try not to though!

Good Heaven's lady! Are you going to tell me why you think I'm confused, or ain't you?

have fun! did you fix the door? yep lol depends on what he is trying to say

Yes

If you cut them up small enough, they'll probably eat them. We tend to forget that chickens don't have hands or teeth so they need bite size things. That's why chick starter feed is such tiny crumbles. An adult chicken will ignore a whole carrot but if you dice it finely enough, they'll eat the whole thing. Same with other hard things like broccoli spears and cucumbers. When feeding Macaws, we had precise sizes we had to cut the fruits, vegetables and root crops so they could eat them. Sometimes 4 or 5 of us would spend about 3 hours cutting fruits and vegetables. Some of the stores brought in from the market. Morning chop session. They didn't have a proper table. It sat on barrels so you couldn't get close enough to it to be able to comfortably reach the center. With virtually no tools, save a machete and a hammer, I made a pedestal table out of this one. I took the center of a tree trunk where the branches begin to spread attaching the branches to the table top with some salvage nails and attached the other end of the trunk to a large board for a base. Sticking her tongue out at a bird that had bonded with her and followed her around the flight cage as she was doing chores. The dot on the right over the beach is a scarlet released into the wild. Congratulations. My daughter, at about 2 loved to climb kitchen chairs, then onto the kitchen table, only to jump to the floor - over and over. She loves the feeling of freedom. Every state is different. It is a national program administered by states. Check with your state AG department. They'll fill you in on all the particulars. It is free in most states. I think there's a couple where you have to pay the gas for the tester to get to your house/farm. Most states have 2 programs. One is for commercial properties and another tests small flocks. Only if you want to do so legally. To be legal, you need the minimum NPIP certification to ship across state lines. In Missouri, you're supposed to be NPIP to even sell poultry in-state. Some like Montana or Wyoming are pretty lax. Some, like Texas and a couple other southern states also require AI clean for importation into the state. AI is one of a number of optional blood tests above the basic P/T test. Optional tests are at additional charge. It was recommended to me NOT to test for AI because of my rare birds. If after the preliminary test and a more thorough second test, they were determined to have antibodies for HPAI, they would be forced to cull the entire flock. That would be devastating for 2 reasons. I couldn't obtain replacement stock but also because that meant they were immune. X2 Scary decisions, once made, are no longer scary. What kind of monitor is it? Batteries in the parent unit? Baby unit getting power? Are they synching up? Nice design. At what temperature does it close? I have one building with a vented cupola and ridge vents and a vented area along the bottom on the deeply shaded side. Besides the windows, that draws the coolest air available into the building and out the top. My only thought is, do you have a means of keeping raccoons out when it is open? My dog/s love sleeping on the tile floor. I guess because it is so cool. Are they in the incubator? Voila! Me too, just not all day. Great feast. Too bad I'm not closer. Ever see the Seinfeld episode where he talks about why and how socks go missing? She sounds broody to me. What breed is she? I just wait till they come off on their own for their daily stretch, defecation, eat and drink. Then I swoop in to mark eggs or remove volunteers. In the run would be OK if it is predator proof. Do you have a basement or secure garage? @daxigait This is the building I told you about with the big windows on both east and west walls. Open year round. This is what it is like raising chickens in MO.

I hope she doesn't jump from a table. She probably is liking her freedom. The scary decision will be regretted either way. The monitor wasn't properly plugged in.

Friend sent me this today.... It's Alabama hot!

LOL

Yes, it did

Incorrect grammar always catches my attention.

Liz, I put the lock up this morning when Benny reminded me that I hadn't gotten it done last night.

Well, be that way, then 

I will.
