Weird,

Here it is.

"Well, I wish I would have read the reasons chicks die first!

We started with 30 and are down to 19, but the 19 seem to be doing well. We got the Rainbow Layers from McMurray. When they began to die I started feeding them Milk with Erythromycin and that seemed to get them out of harms way. They are 3 weeks old now."

The topic is called "Hi, everyone, I'm a chicken!"
It's true! I might be the first Easter Egger on Backyard Chickens! Life is fun when you're a bird.

Hi!

I
had a frizzle hen that looked just terrible. I had gotten her at a local yearly farm equipment/livestock/pretty much anything you can think of auction. I took her home, got her plumped back up, and healthy. One day I went out to check on her, and she had laid a green egg for me!

I called her Fizzeze. A few months later I lost my Percheron to colic, and the next day, Frizzeze decided to jump in the dogs outside water tub

I went in to DH bawling my eyes out... It was terrible, and I felt so bad for letting something so dumb happen. I won't forget that little bird. She was a character!
 
A post asking for how to cook old roosters...

"Coq au vin, chicken in red wine was done with old roosters, it's rich and yummy. There's a few good recipies at the food network site."

Lookit what BYC did to me!!


Woohoo! Would you look at all of these Arkansas peoples! I'm another one in Benton.
I've been skulking around these forums for a couple of weeks now and looking for a place to jump in. First post!

My husband and I have had at least a half a dozen hens for almost 13 years now...(yeah, um, different ones of course). Currently we have four buff orps that should be laying in another month. We have a sweet little six acre, 1/2 wooded plot of land and I've recently convinced him that we need more chickens. This means that he will need to build at least three chicken tractors for them. My weinerschnappers can't be trusted, they've taken out my ducks, not to mention there are other critters like raccoons and possums around that have preyed on my featherbabies.

I love ameracaunas and want to try my hand at hatching at least six of them. This forum has me all excited, seeing how everyone is hatching babies, I just have to try this! I've always purchased pullets in the past. I've been studying very hard, and I'm going to purchase the stuff to make a homemade incubator this week. If anyone near me knows where I can find some fertile ameracauna eggs, please send me a pm!

And it's nice to find so many people close to home. I look forward to learning lots from you all!
 
My first one:

Hi there, I was searching for help online for my classroom hatching project and came across this site. I've been reading some of the posts and it sounds like I've come upon a true gold mine! I look forward to interacting with everyone. I'm in Southern New Mexico right across the line from El Paso, Texas.

I too was an "old timer" on the BYC EZboard, so my first post is long gone also.

I don't even remember what it was, but probably introducing myself.
