nope yours was pretty helpful too..
it was the other posters that were being kind of mean.. I noticed our WA peeps were not being rude...
I think everyone has done an oopsie they learned from! best to share that knowledge right? lol
I use oxyclean on my white cochins feetsies, but only on the feather tips (and sometimes on the feather tips on their chest too) but try not to get it on their skin. It IS very drying, my own skin dries out with it. They free range and are always really really dirty, that along with a little dawn on that area seems to whiten them up.
YIKES on that leak! Your husbands job is not in danger is it?
omygoodiness, you wanna know MY secret dumb blonde oopsie??? If ya'll promise not to
me--it was really really dumb. I was putting in the goat fence, dug a big ol' hole for the gate post, pounded T-bars etc etc.. forgetting all the while that we have FREEKIN HUGE GAS LINES RUNNING THROUGH OUR PROPERTY... the gate post missed (if it actually isn't right above it) the main line into the house by INCHES. When I thought to Self, before adding more fence posts, I should call 1-800 where's the gas lines... they marked up the yard all pretty.. and i fainted when I saw how close the gate post was to the gas line mark. duh. My angel kept me from blowing myself up I think.......
there is a picture of it somewhere on my blog--how close it is..

When my dad was sinking steel pipe for the foundation of my barn he cut the power lines. Twice.
The leak (from a valve from one of those big spherical propane resevoir tanks)was dealt with, but by calling the propane guy and not the fire department. Pretty sketchy, I think. Especially because that Del's is across 99 from the Olympia Airport.
I'm sitting here in the sweater I wore outside to get the chickens' water, still cold now that I'm in the house. I need to go give them some oatmeal, but that requires another layer of coat, I think, and I'll be like Charlie Brown at full snowsuit rotundity.
just remember, propane is dangerous primarily when CONTAINED ... if it is allowed to "sink down" and spread out, especially with the way the wind is blowing today ... and if there isn't an ignition source which can "travel" its spark to the container .. not much of a problem as long as you don't breathe it
not like, say, a chlorine leak ...
however, it is wise to be cautious around propane, I can remember helping investigate a situation where a blonde
(sorry, my hair color too)
had a just-filled propane bottle rolling around LOOSE inside the hatchback of her car
she took a couple of corners on the fast side
and she was SMOKING !!!!!
when she lit up the second cigarette ..... WHOOM
luckily it blew out the window of the hatchback, and the other windows in the car, and she got only flash burns ...
