been out boxing chickens teach.

So who won the boxing match. I am going with Teach with a KO over the chickens. He is too just too tough for them to hang with.​

You might consider putting a sight barrier between the two pens too, the lattice looks to have large enough openings in it for another rooster to stick his head through it. Bad things come about when that happens, just ask my blinker about that. Lost one eye when he stuck his head in the pen with our Brazillian. Orientals just don't play well with others.

Banjo was those your BNN at Shawnee

The bantam NNs at Shawnee were from Ed Hayworth, the trio in the sale area are now in the living room here at the house. Get two eggs a day from the hen and so far all of them are developing very nicely.

I forget to add to one of your earlier posts that one thing that I do is to run a humidifier in the room that I am incubating in. It makes it way easier to control the humidity in the incubator.

Also I use the dry incubation method. Just do a search here on BYC and a very good article about it will pop up.​

That is the darnest chicken I even did see.

Yes it is 3 am and I am still up. I am going to be totally exhausted later today. Oh well I am working on curtains for my bedroom and they are fabulous. Soon as I get the curtains done I am going to make the duvet for the bed. The color scheme for the room is rust, red and gold. Needless to say I am very proud of my work I will try to get pictures posted, along with puppy pictures. Dang I think I have the cutest dogs in the world. Between Stella and Stanley I am such an pet slave.

Well I am at a stopping point in the sewing think I may go do that sleep thing. Heard it makes one less cranky and more energetic I am going to find out.

Later all!​

In your photograph, Buster is wearing the same expression as our Conner (the terrier) wears when he's lost his toys in the yard. He hides them under leaf piles (can't know why), and then he comes into the house and looks at me like your Buster is looking at the camera. I take the toy basket outside and we go hunting for stuffed armadillo, skunk, rabbit, duck, and raccoon. Conner's getting a rubber chicken for Christmas. It will be easier to clean than his soft toys.

Tell us about the "wonder dog" part of Buster's name. There's got to be a good story there.​

That double lattice layer is covered with chicken wire, it's just hard to see in the picture. That's just his temporary pen for a few wks, his permanent one is in the back yard will have a 2' strip of corrugated tin at the bottom and 4' of fence above that.
Do you still have yours? He was SO cool looking!

Buster is a Faulkner Cur. All my life I coon hunted until a year and ahalf ago due to health. I had about 20 hounds at the time. Mostly young dogs as I liked working with pups. When it hit me that I could no longer hunt I sold all my hounds except Buster. Buster will tree squirrel and conn. But more than that he was my buddy. I have kept him as a house dog, yard do about anything you want a buddy dog for. Now Buster is my first line defence against varmits around my chicken pen. He is on a cable slide that runs the entire length of the west side of my pens. He has treed coon, killed skunks (ya I know, when he was a coon dog, he was told not to mess with these)and possoms and warned me of several other varmits during the night. He is one in a millon.
