I feel bad for my breeding drakes
I had to lock the females up because due to the drakes still molting, the females won't leave them alone. They kept picking at them

Welp. Naked neck wasn't eaten.
And Romero is once more a father.

Here's half of them.

Hehe baldies

I had a quail who would routinely reverse out of the hutch when I opened the door, he would then sit confused on the floor until I grabbed him. He definitely lives up to his name, Plop

With a 32 ounce bottle, add 1 teaspoon of Eucalyptus oil and 1 teaspoon of Peppermint oil, 1 drop of Dawn dish soap and fill with water. This stuff even works on fleas! I found a flea on the dog a couple hours ago and I sprayed him with this mixture down around where I saw the flea, it was dead in seconds!

Thank you!

What is the shelf life of this, once mixed? Is it something to use freshly made, or can it sit around?

I had one named Chuck that would just walk out of his cage and drop down to the floor 4 feet below

I really never gave it much thought, do essential oils deteriorate over time? I've used it a year later and it still appears to work. You could always mix up a smaller amount too.

I've had bottles sitting around in the coop freezing in the winter, boiling in the summer and the stuff still kills the fire ants. So I don't think it expires?

I escaped picture day!

I escaped picture day!

I hate getting my photo taken too, good for you!

 

[Sally PB]

Oh, wow, I would never have escaped picture day. My mom would have seen to that. I don't like having my picture taken either, but I understood that they were more for her by the time I was in 5th grade.

I was the senior who bought the SMALLEST picture package available, and still had wallet-sized photos left over.
