Thankful For You

[jolenesdad]

Happy Thanksgiving to those in the United States. In the spirit of being thankful, I thought I would start a chain of “BYC User Thanks”.



If you’ve been thankful for someone on the site, mention it here. I’ll start. With @aart. I have a feeling she is going to feel a little uncomfortable being called out.... but .... sometimes that’s half the fun.

There isn’t another BYC member that has made me think as much or grow as much as a chicken keeper.

You’re so articulate and succinct and no nonsense yet compassionate and caring. I just wanted you to know that I appreciate it so much.

I’ve realized I can respect my animals and also that I can still celebrate the spirituality of the world around me, without entering into this dangerous territory of projecting things onto them. It doesn’t meant I cannot love them and appreciate what they bring to me, and In a way, it makes me feel a deeper connection. All of this personal growth comes directly from @aart’s comments through the years about anthropomorphism.

whenever I’m doing BYC research and I stumble upon an older post with an @aart comment I always feel like it was put there for me at that moment.

so, THANK YOU AART! You’re very much appreciated, every day.


Who wants to go next???

Ooh, me!!!


I can't decide between @Kiki, @sourland, @sumi, and @casportpony. They all donate so much time to this website. They're always positive and nice and ready to help others.

There are so many other great BYCers, and it was very hard to chose just a few (sorry if I'm only supposed to do one, @jolenesdad, but that is impossible!). I am going to thank all the BYCers on the website for being here!

I'm thankful for everyone, but especially @Eggcessive, who is always helpful and nice in every post they make. Same for @Kiki and @sourland. I know there are lots of other members who are super-helpful, but these are the ones that come to my mind, because not only do they have a ton of knowledge, but they are always diplomatic in their posts and cheerful.

Oh, and I'd also like to say thank you to @jolenesdad for making this thread, I think it's a great idea!

With @aart. I have a feeling she is going to feel a little uncomfortable being called out....

Though there are quite a few people here I’m thankful for... There are 2 people here who I’d be lost on BYC without...
@chickens really and @Brahma Chicken5000. My best BYC friends who never fail to provide great friendship and advice. Love you guys.

Happy Turkey Day US peeps!

 

[PioneerChicks]

Oh, one more! (I promise this is my last one!) We can't forget about @Nifty-Chicken! He gives a ton of time and effort to this website and two more besides! Thank you!

I admit he is pretty helpful, not when it comes to dux though.
