"Louisiana "La-yers" Peeps"

[Ron Skekel]

PS. This is the place where I have been the best understood of my life. I really try not to talk about my animals too much to others. The fascination and passion are just not shared. Someone once said,"not everyone is interested in chickens. ". Imagine that.

Really, something must be wrong with them. HaHaHa!!!

Pam, you don't get it bec there is nothing there to get. Jipus was not offensive. She was just trying to share some helpful info on feeding fresh fish to chickens. You are okay. You're not missing anything. Actually you get it bec you don't get something that's not "gettable". Does that make sense, my friend?

Now it totally does. Thanks!!

I know that silkies are supposed to be very sweet, HOWEVER, they freak me out a little!

I don't trust anything when I can't see their eyes. I have found out that you can trim the poof on top though. I love silkie crosses, they have a mighty personally for such a small body (and feathers).

I just popped up my head to look at the tv and saw a teenager being attacked by a Silkie.

This is how we have had success with setting up our kraut. We keep a heavy plate on the surface of the cabbage to keep it submerged. These containers are heavy glass and hold about 3 gallons each.

SEE?!?!?!! I didn't say I was rational in my feelings. I love my Polish and sometimes it's hard to see their eyes.

I don't think you get hook worms that way unless you step in infected poo and then lick your foot. Hahahaha. I have had 2 dogs that have had hook worms. 1 came from the breeder with hook worms. They are hard to get rid of in this case I think the puppies were born with them. to get rid of them you treat them and have to pick up every pile of poo. Older dogs get them from eating other dogs infected poo. That puppy came very close to death but we saved him. My 2nd time was our most beloved Trixie. It was after Katrina we have a studio apt over our garage. One of my husban's workers asked to stay there till they could get better houseing. We said yes they had a puppy I told them from the get go they were to pick up there dogs poo and toss it in the woods on the other side of the fence. I had been doing that myself ever sience the puppy from years ago had hook woorms.I had the scooper they didn't have to bend over just scoop and toss away. It wasn't even a few days that I walked out to poo I knew if trixie found it she would eat it and thats how they get hook worms. I was angery that I was cleaning up after my dogs but now I was picking up theres too when I would find it. well sure enough it was time for her yearly. I wasn't shocked when i was told she was positive for hooks. The treatment isn't cheep and once your property is infected it takes a while to have all the eggs die off. you have to keep all poo removed right away. Needless to say they were asked to leave sooner than later. Trixie was the GSD we saved from the pound that had a death row. She ended up being the most obeident protective dog we've had so far she was Ron's baby when he found out she got hooks he was to say the least.So I hope you don't step in poo and lick your feet. Pam

Well, ok, Pam. I think I'm good. Possible, I could step on poo, but quite unlikely that I would then lick my feet. Lol!!!!!

There are other worms you could get from being barefoot but nothing too bad. Shoes are a more modern concept, people have walked for centuries without them and did just fine.

[COLOR=333333]I AM THE PERSON WHO SENT THE PM TO THEM THAT THEY THOUGHT WAS OFFENSIVE![/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]I have enjoyed this website as a great place to exchange ideas, and learn from one another. I read a post by them that I enjoyed about possibly serving cooked fish bones to chickens, and thought I would send a PM as to how I have found it easy to do. I assumed they, as I have, would find the message helpful or maybe entertaining, but NEVER did I have a problem with this person in any way, and of course meant NO OFFENSE AT ALL!!!!![/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]After the private message I received in return, and then saw the public post about my 'disliked private message", I sent an apologetic reply hoping to clear this crap up.[/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]I am sorry it was misconstrued, was only trying to be helpful, and realize now I made a horrible mistake.[/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]Maybe it is me that misunderstood how to use this site and make friends, and I won't bother anyone again. I am sorry.[/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]THIS IS THE COPIED MESSAGE I SENT THEM FIRST:[/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]"[COLOR=B42000]Jipus5 [/COLOR][COLOR=888888]Dec 27, 2013 at 12:12 pm [/COLOR]Something we have discovered...we fish a lot every year. A LOT! When we clean the fish, we throw the guts and scales on the ground and our chickens eat them up! Then after filleting them, I throw the remainders of the ground and bake them...then just toss the bones in your blender, and dump it in your bowl of leftovers - rice, noodles, meat, cooked beans, diced greens, peppers, tomatoes, apples, onions, anything! It really is easy and takes me no time at all. [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]I read that it a;; is really good for them, si if you get the chance try it! LOL[/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]I'm in Louisiana, so pass on any tips you have as well from your side of the country@!"[/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]THIS IS THEIR REPLY:[/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]LadyKotaDoria[/COLOR] Dec 27, 2013 at 1:49 pm [COLOR=333333][COLOR=333333]My side of the country? I laws trapped here in Arizona. Moved from Florida in 87 to be closer to my mom for 1 year, plan was to eather rent or buy contract for deed. Found 10 ACRS at a good price with a well. A reall score. The owner was happy to go for contract for deed. $100.00 over the payment for land he kept, I was to let him know 30 days in advance if I was leaving. I had over $5,000.00 in the bank for going home. Was thinking of now Vahlia Georgia area. I have lived there with my late husband. My mom had other plans. She put a down payment on this house the amount I had in the bank. Expert at manipulation, my mother did her best work name. I gave her my money and fealt guilty for all of 10 sec for hurting my mom by not being great flu to her for saving me from living in the counrty were people have roosters that will keep me awake. She proceeded in insuring that I remained broke. Never got enough to gather to go home. Then the rest of my family became angry at me for being so ungrateful. To this day I am remainded by my sister how wonderful our mom was to me. She never did so much for her. I am the tarrable daughter to my sister. When I confronted my mom abou rapt 5 years ago, I was accused of trying to kill her. Arizona is NOT MY HOME[/COLOR][/COLOR] [COLOR=333333][rule]AND NEVER WILL BE. When I escaped to living my own life in the south, I became the tarrable black sheep. Only my dad was happy for me. My side of the country, primarraly because Florida was were my husband wanted to live, is Florida. I wanted Savana, or the Georga coast. As for ending chickens fresh water fish, fresh water fish in The intermediary for many many many parasites. I cook all pars of fresh water fish for animals. I give my girls punken seeds and diatomaceous earth as part of the parasite regament. Ringworm, tape worm and nematodes along with many others are just a few. May I also add in, my dada side of the family (I take after), came to this land in and about 1675 to my best estimate. We witnessed the trail of tears, we lived in Georgia for about 100 years of that time. We moved across (including Louisiana) over some 150 years from Louisiana north. We founded a town in Nebraska. I have relatives during the civil war that fought under General R. E Lee, one was one of his Lutenit generals. Yes I am a Yankee by birth, but not by heart. I was not born with knowlage, I had to learn. My grandmother on my dad's side thought me a lot. Hurbs, clay, and living a natural life. Time and my young age I have forgotten most of it. I will have to relearn. Just do not read any of my posts from now on...... Ok[/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]THIS WAS MY 2ND AND LAST REPLY TO THIS PERSON:[/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]

Wow, I must really apologize. I was just passing along something i had learned and wanted to encourage anything you could teach me. I truly meant NO disrespect in any form, ever! I have had many I didn't know do that on here... sent me private messages about something I had posted to teach me what I may not know, to be helpful. I have enjoyed learning things from others who dont live in the south, with our weather and what not, and a lot has really helped me raise my chickens better. I am sorry, I should not have just assumed you would know i was just trying to be helpful, and that is all I really was intending, truly was. I wont bother you again, sorry. J Have fun guys, best of luck to you all. J

Sometimes things are taken out of context...don't leave. Brush it off as a whoops. I see no offense was meant. Some people are a bit more sensitive and through type it's hard to read people. This is a good place to make mistakes to, it's a forgiving thread. just a future thought, it's not nice to post PMs publicly but I totally see why it was done in this case
