I had to put down my sick barred rock today. It's sad to have to do, but she was not doing well. She was a great chicken.

So sorry, Rc. Sometimes that is what's best for them, even though it's hard. *hug*

Aww I am sorry, that sucks. One of my nieces is sick too, we are fingers crossed still.

I am in Central (near St George), Utah (mountains) I have 26 hens, laying great! Need customers. Yesterday we discovered one hen wounded from others pecking her. So sad, since we have raised them from day old. We are going to remove her, and hope others will be ok.

I am in Washington and my sisters in diamond valley! Nice to see another southerner lol.

Ok I set eggs. Like every single one in sight. Some are muddy, I didn't have the self control to toss any. Scared to wash them much so I am closing my eyes and hoping. Crossies lol

Here we go hatching 2016. @Cynthia12 ...

Whoot! Happy Dance!

I'm in eagle mountain

Welocme! I'm in Spanish Fork.

 

[Cynthia12]

Yes, yes! I agree!

Congrats Carrie!

RJ, that is a very cute lynx point you have

She looks like a sweetheart.

Our kitty is home and recovering, so we're happy to have him back. And thank you for the firsthand input on Brahmas. I was right - my husband wants them. I sent him that "set all the eggs" picture and said he'd be on board if they were Brahma eggs. He freely admitted that yes, he would be

Congratulations to Carrie for sure!

And Red, glad your kitty is doing better. Had a big boy that came home often with infections from fighting. I took care of it most of the time..so, was it from a bad tooth?

Brahmas! Very nice looking birds. I would love to have a Brahama and a LF Cochin, but they are so big! I need smaller hens in my flock. Wish I had that extra property.

Seems everyone loves a nice chicken dinner… the cat might have to go. When I start to think of all the 'things' that go bump in the night, that are out there just waiting and hoping I don't lock up one night, it makes me crazy. Protecting ones flock is very much life or death, and there is little leeway that will be in your favor. When I see raccoons that are dead along the road, I don't say sorry about that…

Red, this is my cat Tiki Laka. I know everyone loves cat pictures, so here goes. She is a rescue kitty, I think she will be four in the spring.

Aww, look at those eyes. What an interesting pattern and coloring! Love it.

So sorry. It is never easy.

rcstanley, sorry about the barred rock… but proud of you for being able to take care of business.

Cynthia, lol… thanks for the kind words on my preferred mammal. She is my buddy.

I have never seen such hysteria in a controlled group, such as this BYC forum, regarding 'setting all the eggs.' People need to get out more, it is winter out there,

However… I wish I could join you.
