Doing this from my Phone is a pain. But For some reason my internet is down.
Well we found out we did not get the House! There were 6 offers on it and ours was 2nd highest, I guess I have to keep looking. So bumbed.

Also wanted to say,
Dawn I am so glad you found your chicken.

Jennifer, your Tika looks like a brown leghorn to me! I have one ans she looks just like Tika.

Anyone elts going to go to Bothell feed Center on December 8th For the buy one get one half off sale? If so we should meet up there.

I have a quick question, if no one here knows then I Will go to the Turkey forum and ask.....
Do turkeys lay through the winter or with sup. lighting? Because I just got a Turkey egg this morning!

It isn't over until it closes. Things have been known to go wrong.

We were second offer on the house we are in. The first offer's funding fell through. Just be patient, you may still get it.

Anyone planning on Reber Ranch today? They're having a sale, I got the coupon in an email. $10 off $50 purchase, not bad! Might stock up on some bags of feed.

Bummer...I'm at work, as usual, today. It would have been great to see you again.
Someday I won't have to work every Saturday and can do stuff likes sales, chicken shows, etc.

Oooh that sounds fun!!! We'd all get to see your new farm and you'd score some awesome house warming gifts

I know Ogress was using the Rat Zapper that she ordered from Amazon, but has anyone tried the version that Home Depot sells? DH and I went earlier today but couldn't find any snap traps for rats, so I just picked up a couple of sticky traps, but that's not going to do it for me. I'm going to hit up Lowe's later and see what I can find.

I was just out in the garage getting BOSS to sprinkle on the eggs that I had cooked up for the girls when I am pretty darn sure I heard something scrambling in a cardboard box just inches away from me. I froze and could still hear a rustling noise. I turned back to go in the house to get my dog for "protection" because of course DH had left for Emerald Downs for the day and after donning my gloves I started emptying the box. Whatever had been in there, if there truly was something there was gone. I emptied that box and tossed it into the recycling outside.

Made my blood freeze for a few seconds though I'm telling you. I need to see some dead rats soon. I'm feeling some rage.

Looked like a good deal to me. They are always doing something nice.

Today they are also raising feed, grains etc for a horse rescue.

Sorry I'm all stocked up.

Quote: I stocked up on feed and scratch yesterday from Monroe. I would have bought shavings from them but they didn't have the ones I wanted. I have switched primarily to the finer shavings for my silkies and the nesting boxes. They are more absorbant and softer. I may try them in the LF coop too. I got the shavings from Del's. They were cheaper than other places I have gotten them from. I feel like am pretty set for the next month.

But I will probably get some more shavings and maybe another bag of feed at the Bothell feed store sale on the 8th. Let me know what time you all are going to be there. Sara if you see this PM me if you decide what time. Or of you want to meet sooner than that for the quilting stuff we can find a time.

Has anyone ever used X-Cel feed before? I just discovered their wholesale warehouse is a mile from my home! My gf has been using their feed for a while and likes them and says their prices are very reasonable and that her girls are happy with it so I'm thinking for convenience sake I should give it a try.
