Tab's we are sincerely sorry for your trial. You know you're not that far away that we can't drive up and give you a hand with the chores if you need. Is there anything we can do?

Take care and try to rest.

I will defianately be selling hatching eggs in the sprind and hopefully started birds around May. I still haven't decided prices but will let everybody know when the time comes.

Definitely put me on the list!! Would love some easter time hatching eggs, even if they are bantam eggs. Your birds are gorgeous!

Just got my 16 NN hatching eggs for the NYD hatch - a little early, so I may set them early, but keep your fingers crossed. Had good luck with these eggs a few years ago (allll the way from texas) so I hoping they will come through again. =)

Thanks. I'll call if I need a hand. Right now the chores give my mind a respite from other thoughts.

All I know is that CM has "Egg Producer pellets that are 21% protein.

I too go the Purina and I think my girls have picked up laying since using it but I can't be sure yet. We shall see.

I've got more mice but I have to warn you. Those easy to set plastic traps are not instant kill. I bought two and the mice dragged them off. I found one not far from where I placed it but the other is somewhere in the crawl space in the attic.

I've caught two mice with the rat trap and a few more with just the wire mice traps. I've been dumping the mice in a pile in the back yard just outside the door and something has been coming and taking them.

I had set the rat trap just on the stoop outside the door but caught a mouse in it. I was expecting something bigger. I will set it again and see what I get.

Agway was bought out by, I think, Carvile, and they still use the name Agway. Anyways, they are available in local stores. TSC doesn't carry Agway. If you google Agway you can use the store locator.

I haven't been on much lately. There were over 200 unread posts when I got on here. I can't read them all, I did scim them. Sorry for those that have had losses and hard times. Congrats to those who have new peeps and beautiful birds (that would be everyone right?) Welcome aboard to the newbies.
Lynzi777---good luck
Country boy---are you selling hatching eggs in the spring? if so what would you be asking for them? (I like your birds)


I've been back and forth to the hospital all week. The doctors have told us that the chemo is not working for my brother and they have nothing else to try. His CEA levels improved with the treatment but the cancer is still growing. From this my brother is still going to do another round of chemo. He felt he was able to breath and move around better after a treatment. We've also had to start talking and arranging of affairs. It's hard to feel like you're being torn apart inside and keeping a strong front because the rest of your family needs you to be. I'm thankful for you guys to come vent to. I still pray everyday. Miracles do happen, I see that when I look at my girls.

Tabs, you're in my thoughts. And YES, miracles do happen.

Tab ~ I think of you every time I visit this thread, your strength is admirable. you need an outlet, probably several... for all the emotions that you endure. what better place to clear your head than right here?

rainy and foggy here this morning, chicks are thriving and very active... the other shoe will fall today when my honey comes up for the weekend... no hiding the box of loudly peeping fluff balls... off to work soon... have a great day everyone!

Cheeka, LOL!! Sounds like something I'd do!

Speaking of miracles...
My BIL went from being on his deathbed last week (we were VERY doubtful he would pull through) to being off the respirator and talking of going home to wait out the 6 weeks for the infection to drain. We are all in a happy state of shock. He still has a LONG road of recovery but is fighting with all he's got.

That's wonderful! More prayers coming your way!

Come vent anytime. We're always here for you.

This is my youngest and my brother a little over 2 yrs ago. It was such a precious moment I had to share.
