Holy hell, people... 250+?!


I would love to do that, especially to figure out who is laying what eggs. I have a couple that I can't figure out who is the supplier.


I do it alone and I hold Odin so he's facing away from the hand that's applying that oil. (left arm holding him facing to the left, apply with right hand.) Then he can't see my hand coming and doesn't try to eat it. I use bag balm though so I don't think it's nearly as tasty as coconut oil.


Midol, lots and lots of midol. & put some supplies in the glove box of your parent's car and in your bookbag so you have them at all times.


My oldest actually cried, not b/c of hormones but b/c her childhood was over. She was 11 1/2, the little one was 12, but we were expecting it any time at that point... She more just wanted to get it over with so she didn't have to keep wondering when it would happen.


IDK, there's a reason why I only have 2... I kind of agree w/ the monsters part... esp now that we're in the teen years.


I think it's a case of when the time comes you do what you have to do regardless of emotion. I've watched videos and read stories and it's all seems so overwhelming.. but you did your best with a bad situation and you've learned a lot. Plus your experience has helped others.


How terrible! So glad you caught the opossum & took care of it. Winter sucks b/c the predators are even more deseparate for a meal. It seems more and more are losing birds lately. It's making me more paranoid about my flock, esp since I've seen different foot prints near the coop... I had the stupid camera set up wrong. Still trying to figure out the best place to put it to get a view of what's hanging around.


Oh no! I hope they get him straightened out. This winter has been really bad for illnesses.


Not fair. We're actually warm today (almost 60!!!)... I even opened the window all the way in the coop. Hopefully all this crap snow and ice melts before we get hit w/ another 6" of snow tomorrow (plus ice).


Where are you located that it's so bad? New York? We had a forecast earlier this week that had us getting a foot of snow, but they changed it so now it's just 6-8.. but who knows.. they're wrong so often.
Banty is Canadian, they love snowy weather! I married a Canuk!;)
