Should I buy eggs or wait it out?

I've heard you can use vanilla scented car fresheners too. You know, those type people hang from the rear view mirror.



Loved all the pics, everyone! I can just see Walmart being invaded with nosy chickens. There wouldn't be a speck of food left in the store and I'm sure Roger would figure out how to open the cans. Can you imagine the poop? Clean up on aisle 10... and 14, 3, 7... Clean up everywhere!

Vanilla dryer sheets too! or spent ones, they stick to everything!

I can see it now, every clothes rack FULL of poo!!!!!

it's going to be a bad year for all the insects that love standing water around here... mosquito ~ something like 75 varieties??? I'm going to use the vanilla spray too! thanks JC!!!!!!

Violet is firmly planted, 8 eggs is nothing for her... I've seen her completely covering 14

you're welcome

great find on the kennel!

Jchnny can take her pig too

If she is broody by tomorrow I fully expect the devil to go full blown broody too. She can not stand attention diverted away from her. I won't mention any names

See you guys just had me all out crying laughing with those pictures. This is why its the first place I come when I come to byc. Thank you so much for the laugh, I needed it after arguing with the husband. So he is working on the big remodel today....and yesterday....and last year lol... Anyway I swear the man doesn't listen. I know he learns from seeing but sometimes I need him to just get it. I shouldn't be this cranky with him because he was really cute the past two days out there with the chickens all around him while he is working and asking me how to dose their water etc... He was panelling the side when I noticed him say he left space for the nest boxes. The space is so high that I would not be able to see what I was grabbing and I would need a good four to six inches of bedding just to get the eggs to my hand. He was thinking for his height not me or shorter people like the kids.

I took a picture of some of the girls today, combs are so much darker. I also put out a feeler for some eggs...

Ugh, I hear ya... I usually do stuff myself. Then DH "fixes it."

Usually he does have good ideas tho, just getting him motivated!
