The rooster came when I shook the treat container. I was outside the fence, but he did come! Small victories.

Quote: it had ice on it with about 10 minutes,,,It doesn't seem to be to bad, my main concern is it is right over a previous surgery scar for fibrous dysplasia..

i am no stranger to doing stupid things that result in injury...but I do admit to treating myself when I shouldn't

will have to wait and see what it looks like tomorrow

basically I walked into the trailer hitch, just for a tractor....only I am short and it hits above the knee....I feel really stupid

Hello, my name is Brat, and I am a chickaholic. I began chicken keeping about four years ago...
When RM(newbies, Fisherlady's husband is Radioman. He isn't on here much) said about letting them know if I ended up with two roosters, I figured I would handle it if it happened. As long as the girls were okay, I wouldn't care. Then this morning I had the bright idea that if another turned out to be a rooster, I could just put him in another coop, and get him some girls of his own. I began hoping for another rooster.

It's started already.

No one here has anything to fill your next coop.

Oh wait, I might have a few extra....

Welcome back to the great world of chicken math! We've missed you!

Watched the neighbors ducks over the weekend and collected ten eggs I didn't have a use for.

They're on day 4. Mixed breed, I think. Someone (wingstone?) will take them if they hatch. I don't want waterfowl.

I have run into hitches more times than I care to remember!! Nothing to feel stupid about there!
I know all of the emboli stuff is a bit scary to think of, but they are rare and better to be aware of the possibility and be able to handle it than be unaware and suffer for it.
Totally understand the injury thing!! Been there, done that... just don't like to admit it!

We can fix you up with more... just give me about 8 weeks to work on collecting, hatching and having the hens brood the chicks! LOL

Filling coops for others is a great hobby!

I already told her we would be making a trip your way later in the summer when the rocks are ready to be delivered and that we would bring some of those back with us for her!! LOL

Great minds think alike and so do the minds of neighborly folks!!

I said I set ten. I kept eight for eating. Plus the dozen a day I don't save to set (incubator space limited to around 90, plus quail eggs). Eggs are not my issue. I'm so fortunate my nephew's family goes through about 3 dozen a week and my brother probably two. At least they get used. If I find a used mini fridge real cheap, I may start selling them.
