So the big Bobcat has been spotted on my property again. He is as long as my 80 pound black lab, but not as tall or stocky. Think he poses a threat to my Wynn-d's?

Both sightings have been on the back half of my property where the deer feeder is and not on the front half where we have the most human habitation. Maybe I'll put my game camera back up and see exactly where he is venturing off to during the day.

YEA.... put up a cat cam and check him out. That is scary. Beautiful I am sure but scary.

Oh Oh...keep us posted on how that Bator treats you. I keep walking past them at TSC and thinking I need one. Its easier to justify just picking something up at TSC than ordering the HovaBator I really want off the internets.

I agree! I looked at my hubby the last time we were in there with this "what about this look" and he just shook his head! LOL

I have my first try at hatching eggs shipping to me this weekend! They are Silkied/Split Ameraucana.

I'm so excited! We bought an incubator at TSC yesterday, a Farm Innovators 4200 w/turning tray. I've read not to trust the thermometer so I will pick a second one up this weekend.

Now you are ready to hatch some of those BEAUTIFUL eggs. I love your new hens too, they are so pretty. Someday when I have gained more experience I may get some of the better breeds but for now I'm happy with our chicken family. If we can raise the chicks we have then I feel we have accomplished something excellent.

What is your PBC pipe connected to? Well, I mean I see the hose but is it connected to a gravity bucket on the wall or what?

They are so cute. It's only been 3 weeks but I can't hardly remember my peeps being so fuzzy...... see I need a handful more to remind me!!! LOL

I NEED YOUR HELP!!

I just got finished giving my Lab her shower and it looks like I skinned a smaller dog in there.
She was an out side dog until she got picked up in town by the Po Po, because she thinks she lives in a town like on the movie My dog Skip! She is just as loving as she can be but because of her adventure, we got a ticket and now she is an inside dog. She is killing my allergies.
I have a training collar on her that worked really well to keep her from running off and I also have a GPS locater on her other collar that goes to an app on my phone if she does run off so I can find her.

I would happily let all of that go with her if I could find a loving home for her. She LOVES to be out side and when I am out side and can watch her she is good. OR when I can leave the back door open she run in and out but my allergies can't handle it any more. I keep a headache.

She is good with kids,; when she was out side she kept everything out of our yard at night. She has the deepest voice, very good watch dog. She is 2 years old and as far as a house dog she is super. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, potties in the house. She would chew off her leg before she would potty in the house. She is just a great dog and we are going to be sad to see her go but I just can't take much more of this.

So I really need to find her a good loving home that will take good care of her. I'm willing to meet someone depending on how far it is as long as she is going to someone who will love her.
