IM READING GIRLS GEEZE

i woke up with a major migraine today.. went outside to let the bird our and watered them..
sliped on some ice and hurt my leg (already hurts from new tattoo HAHA)
i feel better with some ice on it and had a some dry toast cuz my stomic isnt being nice to me..
but other than those im doing great.. i lost skylar (my lav orph) yesterday i dont know what keeps getting my birds i might set a live trap and see if i can get it..
i cant leave them locked up they dont like it and cry.. like really cry for me to let them out..

If you are losing them, I would lock them up even if they cry. They will get use to it and you won't lose any birds. Sorry that Skylar is gone.

This little thing is adorable. She cuddles right up to me. If all chickens are like this one, I love them over ducks now. But I can't keep chickens at all. My sister can't even come see me right now because of the baby now. She works with Biomed so she isn't suppose to be around anybody that has birds, specially chickens

Duckies do that too!! Once those ducks hatch you'll be converted back. I like the bantams over anything. They have the BEST personalities. The large fowls can be kinda flighty.

my husband snores also.. he has sleep apnea. so he will stop breathing on me a few times i night sometimes i have to smack him to get him to start breathing again. i wish he would go to a doc but he so anti med anti doctor getting him to take tylonal when he has a fever is like pulling teeth on a tiger.

Mine went to a sleep study and they woke him up 15 minutes into the study because he quit breathing over 80 times. I hate it. He had a CPAC once but it never went in and go it updated and cleaned and it broke. Now he won't wear it and won't go back in for a sleep study. He has to watch it because he is a truck driver. I am constantly yelling and elbowing Jeff to wake up and roll over at night because of his snoring

I cant wait for my silkie chickens to hatch. I heard that they are the most loveable little things. Besides being sooooooo cute.

Fluffy has beem eating and drinking on her own too. I am so glad. I also gave her some oatmeal flakes, broke them up alittle, and she pecked away at them too. She is interested in everything when I have her out

SM: How cute. That little chicky loves you.

Evelle: Are they just disappearing? cuz if it's a fox, my guess is you won't be able to trap it. Where is it getting in? I hate that

i dont think i have fox here.... bobcats, racoon, scunks, and neighborhood dogs

well see here is the thing..
before it got really cold i told my daughter to go get water for me and left the bottom door open now its frozen kinda ajar.. they can sqweeze out of the door..

if i lock them up they fight.. they have more then enough room. but my RIRs are MEAN they ripped appart one of my older barred rocks she now has no tail.

im getting so frustrated this year!!!!! chickens SUCK!!!!
i put flyers up at my LFS that im selling pullets for 12$ each.. my friend told me that i should say 15$ OBO.
