The largest American alligator ever reported was supposedly 19.8 ft (6 m) long, although there are doubts about the claim. crocs are longer

thanks for the advice re size of coop for my "too many" chicks. Looks like I will have a white wyandotte, columbian
wyandotte, silver laced wyandotte, Dominique, buff Polish, black Polish with white crown as extras so let me know if you need any of these.
No charge, just hoping they will go somewhere they are wanted and not just to the stew pot !

How old are these? I have 1 wk old chicks in a brooder at my BGF's and could add 1 more, but only a chick.

Carolyn- Thanks for your well wishes on us finding a house! Is it you that has the new WA chicks? They are so darn cute.


I think I will do the same as far as meeting at the show. I will figure out something to wear that will stand out at let ya'll know how to find me!
Oh they are so cute, what kind?

they are RIRs and BA's They were tacomafarms babies and i bought them from her. She was so sweet to even deliver them to me. I couldn't leave today. Demon is bad.

what a fabulous idea! I recall sprouting willow when I worked for the parks dept, but never saw anyone grow a willow fence, so had to look it up- a simple internet search of "living willow fence' found some amazing designs! Now I'm inspired to find a nice willow to get some branches from!

I love this idea. I wonder what kind of will works best.

Oh yeah you all wanted me to keep ya updated on demon. He has been having daily mild heart attacks. The term mild means what when having a heart attack though? he's obviously in pain. Me and my husband had a long conversation and have decided wednesday if he hasn't passed on already we're having him put to sleep.
Right now he's got labored breathing neck stretched out. I cannot afford another ER vet visit. I honestly hope he goes naturally tonight in his sleep. I hate seeing him suffer.

Walady944, how much for the CW????

Hey guys! I'm just popping in and reading backward. The chicks are great! And I'm glad I didn't waste time for them to meet.


Oh, well he keeps me from being a guest on Hoarders. We're going to put together the nipple waterers tomorrow, I'll let you know how it goes. Always a gamble with glass, but I bought a backup waterer anyway.

seriously, I'm not sure which one of us is at more risk to be on Hoarders first

I've been collecting tin cans to make some of those "tin man" hanging ornaments- has anyone seen those (besides me?) I've decided tuna cans are the best- just nail on posts for grit. I've been saving netting you get potatoes, onions, and turkeys in for use in the garden and harvest. I grab nice sticks out from under the kindling saw for "spare perches".

I bought the saddle-style nipple waterers for PVC pipe online from Amazon, with free prime shipping. DH and I left the new darlings long enough to run errands. We could not find marbles to put in the small chick waterer anywhere close by, but we did find those flat glass beds for $1 a bag, so bought 2 of them from the dollar store. Our brooder is ready for the chicks!
