It's very hard to keep up with you guys!
Congrats LMP on your new birds and egg! already!!!
Wing- My geese will nibble on everything in the garden, except the tomato plants. We ended up fencing it off last year. They do a great job keeping the dandelions and other weeds out of the yard.
And as far as GOOSE math.... how could anybody resist a face like this????
Is that the event at the Bloom fairgrounds? Not that I have time to attend.
Mornin Sally, but you can keep your rain. I have a garden to plant & coops to build & can't get out there to do it.
nice find.....way to use the imaginationOne man's trash...
we did not finish the run for the bantys, so we improvised:
This picture make me laugh!! It may need a caption!!Here they are. They wont walk through the big chicks legs for the camera, but they look cute here anyways.The older ones were two weeks old here, and the new chicks about two days? Beulah is on the right and Hortense on the left in the first two pictures and Mavis is the darker chick in the last two.
Yeah I may be interetested in going and doing this as well!! Not that I need more birds.. even though I am thinking, I want Langshans instead.. Maybe trade my Orpintons out?!?It was a very last minute decision, sorry wing!
Managed to win a couple things i bid on. Came home with a dozen Lady Amherst eggs and 4 turkey poults. No i idea what breed turkey though...hope its something neat. They are sooooo cute. Somehow Blarney behaved herself and brought home nothing! Although she did manage to get me turned on to fry pies, yum!
Something is swimming in your soup?!?! New Duck soup!supervised swim lessons...
It's like monkey see monkey do..
1 decides to give it a try
the rest decide that it looks like fun...
Wow, Newbie saying hello, you try to make a sale! lolLess than an hour from me. How many chicks, ducks & eggs do you need
I was going to chime in, but it seems you have a lot of good advise, in my signature I have a link to a vet that has an avian veterinarian that I went to, not sure if she is close to you or not, but they treated my girls very well.
That reminded me I let my girls out in their makeshift run and I tried to move it around to were i saw more weeds, not realizing I put them over my mums, that started growing back, now eaten!! Ooops
Congrats on the egg! I was noticing the sand you have down, how do you like that? i am using Straw in my coop? so you think the said is better for cleaning? Maybe get like a scooper to clean it out?Now THAT is nice& not a bad price, weve looked at different places, boy , do they get crazy!
.OMG....Hey, everyone....One of the girls just layed today!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We believe it was from thr BL, it is small & cream colored. SOOOO cool!!!
We only just recieved them Friday, and they are 5 months old, very surprised to see this!Thought it was a Wyandotte "thing" to take awhile to lay...whatever, I'm not complaining!!!!
When we took it out she started making alot of noise..I don't think she wants to share!
Ok, please explain further for me, What is for? Closing the coop to the run? I am going to be cutting my barn wall so I can open it to the run and only have the door, and need the best/easiest way to open and close the door!
The chain attaches to a rope that threads through screw eyes to outside the run. The door is heavy enough that dropping it slams it to latch. Pulling the rope pulls up on the latch so it opens.
I just have to laugh at this!! BlarneysEggs has goats that keep escaping from Askaban?!? LOL
I am waiting on eggs. *sigh* they are susposeadle hard to hatch so I may have none
Will do. I am waiting on eggs.. If they hatch I will see what happens... She only laid me 2 eggs and stopped... so i Only sadly have 2 eggs due. I ill most likely get eggs out of the female soon once the weather re-warms.
