Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

FFM (Famous Farmin Momma) - You go girl! So glad your DD was able to pull Maxx out of the way!

ChickAudie -

about the bank account restrictions....

BGMatt - I hope to be at the PNPA show!!! Yay! So I used to go to BG all the time, long story, but do they still have those awesome country g-sales out in Yacolt and beyond? Oh man... bank busters!


SadieSue - That last pic is hilarious! The buff reminds me of Big Bird!

Quick question: Are you the one with the show coming up? If so, when is that!?



Oh man... Alyssa Lies is on.

So today sucks...

It is the 5 year anniversary for my Grandpa passing on, 6 years for my BFF, and 19 years for my other Grandpa... All today... Not exactly the best day. Holding on ok. Going to send off some sky lanterns tonight. Always tell the ones you love how much you love them, life is too short.

And then I went home on my lunch break to find my furnace won't shut off, and my house was 80 degrees.

And then! I went out to collect eggs and one of my pesky pullets or other birds is pecking and eating the eggs.

AND THEN!!! My rabbit is acting like she's in labor, and I can't be home with her... And my buck is trying to lick all the Sevin Dust off the walls, I swear he's gonna lick himself stupid.



So I'm going to hide under my desk for the rest of the day and hope everything goes ok...

Someone let me know when it's safe to come out...

Awe, big hugs to you TacomaFarms

What a sad day indeed. It will all be alright in the end, if it's not alright, it's not the end.

Chance/Fate - to each their own. Hindsight is always 20/20 isn't it? One thing is for sure, she made certain they would not be back around her nighborhood. Honestly, I probably would have done the same thing. The paper felt they should brag about it.

I don't think it's fair for you to speculate what could have happened "if". It's already done, what more is there to say? I am sure she won't have to be in this same situation again, so your advise to her about her "bad decision" isn't necessary.

New giant pics I took today:

Very cool...


Is anyone going to see about a Coop Tour this year? I am very interested in seeing everyones digs...

I may have missed it, but has CR posted any pics of his new Silkie babies ?

My advice is to stop bragging about having done a really dumb thing.

Thank you so much! love to look at the silkies I tried several once but they were older and very shy. Sold them with our old house.

so beautiful and sweet. Maybe someday I will have them.

Ooooo... Irish are on my short list of dream dogs for when my elderly very large dogs snore their last (they're asleep right now: 15 YO Chesepeake Cow Retriever and her 16 YO Aussie/Border Collie father).

So, what kind of chickens do you have?

Right now I've got a hodgepodge. All 5 week old babies, I've been out of poultry (almost entirely) for about 3-5 years but I went to the Prairie Hatcher 4-H auction and bought a bunch of chicks just to support the club that was so great to me way back when. There's a lot of Dark Brahma bantams in the brooders, a lot of White Polish in both sizes, some of what I hope are White Langshan large fowl, a pair of Silver Campines, what looks like a pair of Gray Dorkings, and some other stuff 62 chicks in all, but most of them won't be staying long term, just bought to support club. I will keep some of the Brahma and Polish, and definitely the Langshans if they turn out, I'm undecided on the rest. I'd prefer to specialize in rare large fowl and am hoping in the next couple years to acquire and focus on Langshan (might have some already!), Chanteclers (hard to find) and White Faced Black Spanish (ditto) The rest will be side operations of whatever strikes my fancy. I'm used to having a lot of birds around and have been missing them greatly the last few years.

As far as Irish goes, his biggest flaw (other than the whole terrier thing of always needing to be fenced or leashed) is that I can't trust him to not kill birds, otherwise fantastic dog and personality

ChickieLady!!! Your Splash's are GORGEOUS!!!!

Oh, lFarmin Momma's story about when she had to kick those trespassers off some land at gun-point awhile back ended up in the paper yesterday. Some people don't like it when other people don't think exactly how they do, I guess....?
