So, for clarity, I should trim the dark part of the top part?

On a baby note: I am officially in the LAST trimester and I am ALREADY ready to be done!! LOL

Alex - DH said he'd be interested but we don't have a place for her


he is interested but you have no room for the baby??????


This just stuck me as funny. Yes, I know I read it out of content but still...
First impressions are always funny....

I do think fencing her in may work.....

no, the beak comes to a point at the end. From this pointed end you should be able to look and see through the beak kind of. You work your way from the pointy end toward the chickens head, once you see it darken on the beak you have reached the cuticle line (just like a dogs or cats line can be seen) Once you find that line you can start to trim, keeping in mind where the line is. Take breaks so you #1 find the line again and #2 make sure she doesn't form a drop of blood. You stop trimming just before the line or when you see a drop of blood form.

So I've been lurking about, catching up on your posts about 'scissor'. I just want you to know, I think she is the most beautiful chick I've ever seen.

My heart goes out to her. I hope your SPECIAL chick is able to develop and have a great life, despite her disability.

A couple weeks ago, I brought a 'special' duckling home from TSC, who couldn't hold his head up, his neck just flopped to the side. I was heartbroken from the beginning, thinking I may lose him. However, he is now holding his head up more proudly than my other two. He is BEAUTIFUL, just like your special girl.

I know your fix isn't as easy, but I am rooting for her, (and you!)...Please keep us updated, and keep your head up! GOOD LUCK TO BOTH OF YOU!

Okay, those who wanted raspberries, please remind me who you are and how many you want. I know Beth wants some, but not sure how many. Luke, you had wanted a few...do you still? Anyone else?

Oh, I'll have plenty left! When so many people wanted them before, I doubled my order. And now I can't remember who they were. I have fifty plants. I'll plant maybe a dozen here, and the rest can go for $2.50 each, or equivalent trade. These are Carolina raspberries, bred for our climate. If folks will let me know how many they want, I can take the rest to the flock swap on Saturday.
