I do enjoy listening to the boys when they are first learning to crow and how funny they sound. My young boys are quite a ways off from starting to crow. They are just now starting to loose their peeps and get their adult voices. The older adult birds I don't worry about as they go into their coops good at night. The youngsters are starting to, but still need a little coaxing. I don't shut the pop doors on the adults coops at night, and all of the coops and pens are electrified and covered. So far no losses. I do shut the youngsters in at night.

oh yeah it so very funny to here the young roo when they first start to crow mine has been crowing only about 3 weeks and has just got a good decent crow lol he couldnt get it all out for a while there and it was hilarious I laughted at him so hard to much there for a week or two that now when he sees me first thing in the morning he will run around the side of the pen and crow at me no matter what side I go to at the wire I can even move around and he will stil crow at me letting me know he has a FULL bodied DEEP crow now .

Quote: I give the birds treats I put in a small white bucket. If a boy sees the bucket he will start crowing and then there is a crowing contest like each boy is trying to out crow one of the others and as if to say "me first, I want treats" and everyone runs up to the fences. I usually give everyone treats when I go out and collect the eggs in the evenings. The youngsters are curious as to what all the fuss is about. I think they are starting to figure it out too now.

Anybody know why all of a sudden I am not getting post from any of the groups? Been getting them every day since I started and this last week zip have come through.

I logged off and back on in case that was the problem but still nothing.

Suggestions?

Go into your profile and make sure that email notifications are turned on.

Then check your spam folder.

If that all looks good, post here:

Then thats the issue each morning when I walk the dogs I feed they first thing and that explains why he looks for my little chi and pom and then start crowing at me he knows breakfast is coming and if he thinks im coming out the back door with something in my hand he will start crowing at me stil explains it all Hahahahaha!

I checked to see if my inbox was full and it wasn't I also checked my spam blocker and all is well there too so I still don't know why I'm not receiving any posts lately. I also went to the thread mentioned above but still haven't figured out why no notifications of any new posts. Maybe members are taking a break from posting. ??? With 347,247 BYC members I would think someone is posting to the threads we subscribe to.

if you go back into the settings area and click the save link / button it will resave your settings even if you have not made changes. Some how this re-saving restarts the emails.
