I have Welsummers, Golden Cuckoo Marans, and English Orpingtons in blue, splash, black and chocolate. Lots of peeping going on!

Nice!

Let me know if you start selling the chocolates! None of mine made it to lockdown.

Quote: I am selling out of the chocolates. Someone is coming to look at them today. I decided to limit and they lost. The Gold-laced, too.

antifreeze is cheap. Perhaps not as fun though.

even as mad as I am about it I wouldn't wish anti freeze on any animal I had someone do one of my dogs like that but he was a sweetheart and didn't deserve to go like that he would walk the nieghbors kids home from the bus stop and I guess they're dad didn't like dogs even though mine was just looking out for his kids like a buddy

We lost our little spaniel to antifreeze right after we moved to the present location agout 26 yrs ago...I couldn't believe someone would just leave it out after they worked on their cars...but we were in the country and really didn't have high thinking neighbors! I really don't think they knew. But my son was just about 13 and my dd was 10.....they were just crushed when I had to tell them what the vet said. Kidneys just crytalize...Yes, I understand how mad you are especially if he did it on purpose....not sure I could not pay him a visit. Yea, I know that would not be wise as mad as I was but......my heart was broken.

Quote: Not to rain on your parade, but you won't be able to show him since he is a mix. Let me rephrase that. You could show him, but it would be a waste of your time and money, since he is not a pure breed, he will not place. If you would like to show or think you might want to in the near future, you might want to look into pure breeds. Good luck with your new rooster either way

Going to need to watch the heavy feathered breeds today
.....and I won't be home to do that......there are time that
earning the chicken feed sucks. Only a few more weeks
