Thanks! And congrats on the cemani pip. Can't wait to see that baby.

And thanks to everyone for the support with my rooster. I do appreciate it.

Let's hope BIG Guy does, as well

Sorry that you had to process him

But everyone is right, there are too many good roosters to deal with a bad one. I have some really nice roosters that I don't want to have to eat and really hope I'll be able to find homes for since they're good boys, but I'll do it if I have to, since the hens' welfare comes before my feelings. I have three really great ones that will always stay, but the others need to find their own flocks or be eaten.

My son has been wanting a dog for a long time now. We tried over a year ago and made a big mistake with our choice, luckily he still ended up in a great home and we get to see pics all the time. So today we went to the open house of the neighboring county's shelter. We came home with a Corgi mix. He seems to have a decent personality, a little eccentric. He was picked up as a stray with an outdated chip so we don't know is back story. He seems to want to be outside all the time though. He won't get on the bed-at least yet and you can't pick him up. He doesn't like that at all. Can't wait to see what the next few days have in store for us. Oh and he doesn't want to eat the chickens so that's a good thing too.

Congrats! Corgis are usually sweet. Might just take him a little time to warm up to yall. Pics pleeeze...

I sold my first two pullets today!! $20 each! A dad and his 3 pre-teen daughters were going gaga for the silkies. Very nice family. His daughters were in love with the two little pullets. I was sad when I was packing them up and then felt better after I saw how nice the family was. Then I bought 2 silkie hens today!! One is 12 months and the other is 18 months old. Both are laying but the previous owners don't think they are fertile. So hopefully one of my cockerels will figure out how to do the deed soon and I will have fertile eggs! They are in quarantine now but PO said they were house pets and lived In the guest bedroom and have not touched soil. Can that be for real?? Do you think they still need a full month quarantine? Here's a pic:

Amy, congrats on your dog. I so want one, but don't want to deal with the expense or the care involved. I know... I'm fickle.

At least 1 of the big ducks started laying... we now have duck eggs for eating!

Congratulations! I prefer duck eggs to chicken eggs. I wish others would agree as I have 5 dozen on the table :/

Well that makes sense. So...how do duck eggs differ from chicken eggs??

Besides the obvious size difference personally I think they are slightly sweeter and fluffier when you make scrambled eggs. Made some amazing quiches with duck eggs.
