was wondering if anyone had heard from Mrschickendad? i believe she is in michigan? thought you guys might know

Yes, the Chickendads live in Michigan, was really pleased to see them at Chickenstock last year with a whole pen of little fluffy and frizzle cochin chicks. She has been posting on her Chickendad Chroncles thread, just maybe not quite as often.

Ya'll have been CHATTY! I know there were people I was going to respond to but do you think I remember after six pages or whatever it was? Absolutely not! LOL!

It's nice and sunny out there today. I'm ready for the warm weather to show back up though.

You cant delete posts..only edit. If you want a post deleted, the mods have to do it.
I know this answer because I found it on some thread somewhere when I was searching how to edit my photos..correction, how to CROP my photos.

Mon 2em All,

I asked the same questions in the FAQ section and got the same answer. I was told to flag the post and the mods would take care of it. Thanks

Is there a way to find/go back to a post that one leaves to look something up ?

RB, I just googled Olivet, you are only about an 1 1/2 hrs. from me, not far at all let me know when you have some chicks

Is googling Olivet like groping chickens?

I had wondered what happened with another Michigan poster, Nigellas, so I PMed her. She is kind of busy with the new baby that arrived in November.

Good morning. All the poultry seems to be adjusting to the weather and I have a 3 year old RI hen who has decided that a snow blizzard is a good time to start MOLTING!!

I don't know why, but I quite literally laughed out loud. I woke up the snoozing dogs.

I wonder ; As i wander [lurk]-----

AS one reads posts do they tend to respond in a post of their own immediately ? I tend ( almost always) to finish all posts not read , then --find i don't have time to respond or can't remember what i wanted to say.

Bob, you can click on the multi-quote button as you read them and when you have read them all, hit the reply button and you get this format where you can add your comments, edit out blank spaces, text and more. Just play around with it.

You can cut out photos within the quote by using CTRL x

BobBry, I have the exact same problem! I do read through all the posts, and off and on have the intention to respond to one--then I'm out of time or energy, or that subject is 10 pages back already and my little comment would be stale before I even post it. Plus, if I keep reading, there's often new info on the topic or someone else has already put in a much better answer than I would have come up with. In which case I'm grateful I didn't jump in immediately.

LOL! LOL! I think it's come to mean a little something different than what it actually stands for. I mean, how often is actual Laughing Out Loud literally occurring, for either the writer or the reader? (Sometimes, I admit, it does for me when I am reading the Michigan thread!) Often I think LOL is more a signal that "hey I am not entirely serious here"--because getting across the exact tone of your words is so much harder in print than in person. I think maybe we need yet another acronym to get that across. WG (weak grin)? SAS (small apologetic smile)? Because, of course, what we reallly need is more sets of letters to throw around and confuse people with. WG!

Literal LOL does sometimes occur and it usually involves spitting your beverage all over the keyboard.
I would like to see a "sarcasm / sardonic font" such as backwards italics. Of course, I would wear it out in no time.

Have a great day ya'll.

Hawk was back again.
This time he got a sparrow before it could get into the arborvitae. The chickens were alert enough to hide in the little coop. I saw them make a beeline for shelter and looked out front in time to see the hawk strike.
