Official Squatch Watchers

No not really they are all skittish but nothing crazy. The girls are making some noise but no panic. I got a small couple videos I'll post later.

Cappy,
Do you hand quilt your creations? Machine quilt? Send off for finishing?
Inquiring minds really want to know.

Sam!!! No one going all crazy trying to mangle the others?


Did the shopping, used my coupons, bought on sale, walked out with a full cart including meat items AND veggies! Forgot milk......jk!

Got everything except fresh items that don't keep for the whole month! I will do short trips to Sprouts for fresh things. Got outta there spending 150 and saving a little over 90.

I love saving money at the grocery store!

There once was a girl who loved chickens
To find likewise friends was slim pickens
Then she found BYC
And found friends times 3
Some of them full of the dickens

So my Bluebar starting laying in Nov. She is about 8 months old. She layed about 5-6 eggs then didn't lay again til about 2 weeks ago. Shes laid maybe 6 eggs ...3 were normal and the others were thin shelled and had a small hole in the pointed end. Yesterday I gave her 300mg of calcium. This morning she layed another wrinkly thin shelled egg. How long til the calcium helps and should I giver her more? I know too much can be bad too

Suzi,
I wish I knew. I simply don't know if another dose would do any harm or not.

I would still count her as as new layer since she is so young and went through the winter not really laying.
Hoping she is just glitchy.

I mostly hand quilt, but occasionally use the machine to sew pieces together. And i do sometimes machine quilt if the quilt is going to see heavy use, like for kids. I enjoy hand quilting. Never sent one off to be finished, but have mailed a few i was sending as gifts.

I would give her a couple days for the calcium to get circulated and put to use. If she is eating layer pellets that should make up any deficiency.

Suzie, the whole calcium thing is a bit bloated. If she will take it, that's ok. I feed my roosters layer and they do fine. When they are past their prime (2 years) their livers look fine.

ETA: The only time my roosters are on different feed is during the 30 day cool off, when they are in the bachelor pad... They get rooster booster feed.
