Roosters Crow, I hope your knee is feeling better.

Mindylee, I'm so glad your hubby wasn't hurt more! How scary!

A large plastic dishpan would be large enough and be much easier to deal with when moving your tractor.

I use the small black cement mixing pan you can get a big box store. Higher sides help keep the sand contained better and less likely to be flipped over by the birds, and heavy duty plastic. I put in a mixture of sand, DE and a little poultry dust.




We brought in the FG, Eeyore in to hang out and trim his nails.

Always been a fan of stop animations... computer gen stuff is cool, but SA was something I always wanted to do. The box trolls looks like it will be a great one! (Sept 2014)

Beautiful day out there. Brought in firewood for the next cold snap.
And found a green egg.

Hello again. Long time no see. From last year, we ended up losing all the chickens. *sighs* Being pregnant, I could not handle that and remain here, so I left. In October I had a daughter.

sorry about your chickens,CONGRATULATIONS on your daughter, Welcome back

Hello, I have been trying for a few months to re home my laying hens and the weather has conspired against me. I had 5, and one passed due to the cold. I need to find a proper home for them where they can do what they do best....lay gorgeous eggs!
I have 2 Americana and 2 Gold Crested Polish. They have become very attached to each other since our Mamma Hen passed, so they need to go together and stay together.

I live in Garden City, about 6 miles north of 94 & 6 miles west of 275. I can meet you or bring them to you, but I need to know they are safe and warm.

beautiful hens, hope someone can help you out

More entertaining that TV - my grandson just loves to sit and watch the chicks. And he named them all, too
!

love the pics, your grandson is so sweet



a cat litter box also makes a good dust bath, with or with out the top,

Thinking spring.
I am adding some variety to the hosta garden. Dragon Tails hosta.

Very pretty RaZ. Will it stay that shade of green?

It's more of a yellow-green. I'm hoping that it tends towards the yellowish side.
I just discovered this cultivar today so I don't know much about it other than what I've read on-line.

That's really lovely-- never heard of that before either. I'm imagining it paired with purple.
