To bwindell: In her post regarding guineas, jchny2000 affirmed that her guineas kept predators away, so you just need to train them to run those nuisance neighbor dogs off your property! Just add guinea training to your daily list of "To Do's." haha
To livevintage: Welcome, and thanks for the tips about posting the Lavender Alert!
To others who asked about posting the Stolen Lavender Chickens info on FB--- the small jpg of the poster is just like a photo, so if anyone wants to show the pictures, just upload it like a photo. The family emailed again saying that they were so grateful for the overwhelming support of the BYC community. I had told them (Angie and James) of the post about the stolen incubators, which to me, also sound like the crooks were looking for specific items. I think that because of the interest in rural farm "antique picking" as well as the increasing popularity of owning chickens and small farms, it seems likely that the demand of farm related goods will motivate even more greedy, heartless people to steal. That's why I want to establish a more efficient system of communication by having a comprehensive resource of contacts by alerting various businesses and organizations to be on the look out for stolen goods. I can start working on that this Friday.
