Hi! How the heck did you find three acres in Dallas? I want a donkey but the ordinance in Carrollton prohibits it.

Maybe it could be a therapy donkey.

I am having a downsizing sale, I am selling all my Blue Americanas including their two chicks they hatched on their own. That includes the Rooster (Elvis). I am selling half my flock of FBC Hens which includes a Rooster (Not Chauncy). I am in Livingston Texas. 25.00 for full grown hens 15.00 for the roosters. Those who are interested and can make it to Livingston, Texas and want them, send me a PM. Feed is getting expensive, now that I am retired and I have a GSD coming at the end of July and a Rat Terrier probably after the new year. It will still allow me the benefit of having some chickens; but, I suspect keeping two dogs happy and healthy would cut into what I spend on feed. Thanks for looking.

Hey Rooster! I wish I lived closer, I would buy your chickens. You won't have any problems selling. You have a great flock.

Shhhhhhh.....I went outside this morning to open the coop. No noise. The grackles are gone!! The songbirds are back.

LOL! Have you seen the stories on the news about the neighborhood that has had egrets nesting? It is against the law to disturb a nest but they have taken over the neighborhood and are raising their young, they won't leave till October. What a mess! I have a family with severn goslings that are a mess, I can't imagine a whole flock of egrets!

Way too far for me, or I would take a couple hens

That happened at our old house, we actually made it through and then cut/trimmed the tree where mama was so she wouldn't be happy with that site the next year. Worse part was the two babies ate all our frogs (we had a small water feature) and terrorized the Koi. And waded through all and made a big mess of our back yard.

I wouldn't mind one or two but a whole flock would be overwhelming. We have a 5 acre pond so I doubt they could eat ALL our frogs. LOL

On Monday, I was trying to get my mowing done when 19 egrets showed up. They usually don't show up until I brush hog. They really like the crawdads on our property. See their little skeletons all over the place.
