Should I buy eggs or wait it out?

[BullChick]

Yes, it's possible. Usually an empty crop/dehydrated.

Guess who had a perfect day?

Now that the ex-broody is laying again, it was up to the ducks this past week. Today EVERYONE laid!

 

[BullChick]

I still can't believe that spider. It was big!

I am used to the smaller ones in the house. Except for the tarantula. It was obviously bigger.

roosts all over the place and they pick the metal bars. height rules.

Congrats MC on your perfect day!

 

[BullChick]

Thank you.
I have a metal roost that mine prefer in the run. I worry about them hurting themselves trying to hang onto slick metal. Of course in the rain they do slip off. Then it's funny! There is a bigger wooden roost that I think is higher in another area of the run, but they rarely use it.

Crazy chickens roosting on cold metal. Won't they freeze their tootsies?

Yay for a perfect day MC!


Red mites in the bantam coop again. It's WAR!

 

[BullChick]

Don't say that! I'm getting paranoid about the ducks! Of course, the chickens are fine, and they share a building.
Anyone else swear that "of course" used to be "ofcourse"? Granted, few people know that it is "a lot" not "alot" and there is another word we all use frequently (which I forget right now) that is up for debate lately. Spelling has become so confusing since we began this new crap. Even I will say "pic" at times instead of picture.

 

[Wishing4Wings]

No. Of course has always been 2 words that I've ever seen. Awhile and alright can confuse people a lot of the time, but they are words. Typing shorthand has invaded the language. My kids say "lol" when something is funny.

the English language is so difficult. when I was a child, I was put in French lessons when I was in kindergarten. took it for 14 years, not fluent anymore, because of disuse, but I understand almost all I hear even if I can't answer perfectly... so when I was in Germany for a couple of weeks, I really immersed myself and learned to speak at least as well as a 5 year old in about 10 days. often, my grammar was the culprit, my vocabulary was Huge. (is...) anyway, a few folks were interested in learning a bit of English... how does Pee-ope-eluh spell People? or Lah-oo-gah-huh spell Laugh? ay caramba... I'm glad that the who and whom business is obsolete. that was my Mom's pet peeve and I rarely got it right.

 

[BullChick]

Awhile! That's it! I have been seeing it as two words!
Be back soon. I have Duckling.
