Good morning all- did I just hear right? The weatherman tells me to expect 5-6 more INCHES of SNOW????

Huh, is "o-shamo" the actual name for these birds?? bc my dad has a TON of them at his house!! They are pretty gigantic also. I've always wondered what to call these bad boys. Are these babies just going to be for aesthetics? bc my dad says they're quite tasty

BTW.. I just got done with a five page paper on Common Sense, by Thomas Paine.. and YES, it WAS a pain!! It took me FIVE hours to complete bc I just couldn't get through the old English language. blaaaaahhhh.. History is kicking my butt this semester!!

it is my understanding that Shamo is the breed- and the O is the size. They are the largest size. Then there are ko Shamo and Chu Shamo. (Im still learning).
And I just want to add a velociraptor to my little world- Cricket- there will be all the rest that hatch available.....I mean, perhaps they would like to go to your house to camp.

35 Days until April First!

Unfortunately, I just got my summons for jury duty.

March 28th. I really hope it doesn't go into Spring Break.

oh chickenwrangler!!!!!!

You just reminded me that I had jury duty for my birthday last year (March 3)...which means I am up for grabs again real soon. Darn.
Hope its quick for you.

Im off to go get my daily IV antibiotic- everyone have a great day!

very cool birds Mom...

Seriously? more snow? Oye!!


Has anyone owned Sumatras? How are they as layers.. or are the boys just good for looks...

wow. I want a velociraptor too. Just not a Roo... My Silkie mix Roo is a little softie so poor guy wouldn't make it against a real fighting rooster.

I forgot, but one of my 5mth old runner/rouen mix girls just laid her 1st egg, should I toss it for it being the 1st one ever from her, or can I just go ahead and scramble it up and eat it?
