the pullet was by the door I went to walk in and I guess I got all up in her business cause when I went to pass she started. The stag didn't flair and bow he came head back feet out then billed my jeans and started wailing to the point of rolling around still billed and slinging feet. It had to be my leather steel toe boots that knocked the spurs off. Right now I can't hold any cause last Friday I smashed my ring finger between a 250cu.ft. nitrogen cylinder and a table pretty painful and can't do anything with it

He wouldn't have been able to get a bill hold if you had your skinny jeans on ya know

I've had a couple hens like that but not as bad and not for without read on. I guess ima have to throw feed in the pen he needs to heal his legs

I am inclined to think that way because we know it happens with our fish. You have the nice big studs that make the nest and take care of the kids and you have deadbeat moms that drop off kids with dad then run. On top of the dead beat moms, you got the girly men that look like the moms, but they are dudes. A big stud thinks he has two gals coming in when in fact one is a transvestite stealing some of his action. Then you got the skinny neighbor boy that has huge nads for his size and he sneaks in too.

this is eerily like my early 20-'s

Couple of big fish stickers. Only an arctic fox lost his tail in the making of these. Not bad

Something I often wondered and saw it mentioned on another thread anyway.
Has anybody ever had hens lay with artificial lighting? You yourself not hearsay or what was read. If so is there a specific spectrum of light? And do you think the chicks from that type laying are just as healthy as natural light? Imo I would think they would not be as healthy as nature's way. I guess its more that I believe to let nature do its thing. But that's just me

I use lights every year to stimulate laying so I can get eggs when I want. Hens need a certain amount of light to stimulate laying, that is to say, they need a long day. They don't get that during winter so they don't lay as well. I like getting my chicks hatched early. It is simple: Just use a cheap timer so the light comes on at 2 AM and goes off at 7:30 AM/daybreak.. The light does not need to be anything special, a 40 watt bulb will do. Anything to give them a little light so they get up and moving around. It takes 2 to 3 weeks to start working on the laying cycle.
