Honeysuckle Hills, I will hold the Angel for you for a little while, but she has to go somewhere..she is in my last available brooder and I had 3 chicks hatch last night in a hatching bator that will need to go in THAT brooder SOON.
I can keep the silkie in a crate for a while, please make it not long.

ANYONE traveling from here to up by Kenmore::::::::::::
This silkie pullet needs transport from me to Honeysuckle Hills.
PM me or her,
Thanks guys~~
Goodnight.

You can pin (quilt pins) to cardboard, too, skin side OUT.
Sprinkle with salt like you are salting fries.
Then a few Tablespoons of powdered Borax per hide (chicken) rub the borax around & set UP, so any fluid can drain, on a wad of paper towels (to get the fluids) in a warmish well ventilated palce.
This does not work in a damp place like a stall or damp garage, as the salt & borax will attract alot of moisture.
Be advised also as the skin dries, borax may crack & fall off, so do not set this up where the borax can ruin something or kids/pets may eat it.
After it is dry, it will be stiff, and can crack.
Carefully un pin.
Any weird feathers can be straightened by steaming or using a damp sponge to brush the feathers straight.
Once dry, you can rub a few dots of neetsfoot oil into the skin to make it pliable, let it set, and wipe off any excess oil.

Sweet! Thank you CL! I'm gonna do this with the mean cockeral! YES!

Yes I am excited about offing this particular bird! Horible I know, but Im sure he will taste wonderful!

They have the sweetest breast meat!!

OK so maybe I can do a better job of it this time.
NO I am not (to my knowledge) being banned from BYC.
NO there is no new medical issues here.
No we are not losing our house.
NO I am not so mad at anybody that I am leaving.

I am simply having a rough time and am very confused. I decided that it may be best to take a break rather than stay and dump on people or risk causing problems. And please don't take it that I am saying anyone else has done this. It is just me.
I love my BYC buddies and have to thank you for pushing me to go on with my metal junk.
So in general yes I am ok just please ned some time to clear my little pea brain.
To all who have checked or shown concern I say thank you.
I will try to come back with a better attitude and less twisted attempts at humor.
Sincerely Rob

Spent most of the afternoon reading the EE Sexing thread on the "What Bread or Gender Is This?" part of BYC, so of course at dusk I went out to fix an air leak in Elvis's coverings, stepped on the live hose and blew the hose-mender off the end. So, tomorrow I get to re-mend the hose and put the little tarp that was on Bacchus' pen on Elvis' pen and move the Layena bags to the Hamburg run- I can put them on the last unprotected west-facing vertical area and it won't make it darker, because this time of year it's in the shadow of the topography.

And then take individual photos of all 14 babies, which I'll need to do every Saturday morning until they're in full adult plumage, oh, well, gives me something to do.

I found my job on Craigslist and I love it!!! Not only do I love it, it was there that I decided I wanted chickens when I saw these guys wondering outside my window. They were allowed to free range around the office. I always got a smile when I saw them out there.

I missed what happened and I know I'm new here and don't know you very well. From experience on other forums, it is healthy to step back from time to time. I was/am part of a gamer parents forum and there were times were things just got deep and a tad too emotional over, what in hindsight, was really nothing. And a few times we got spanked by the mods (even when I was a mod

) I hope the best for you and that you feel better soon. At least with that group, no one stayed away long. Take care of yourself and hopefully I have a chance to get to know you later!

Chickielady, what birds are you trying to find homes for. I was flipping around trying to catch up and got lost.

I'm getting my coop tomorrow! *happy dance* Hopefully the rain doesn't mess up my plans on setting it up. I definitely don't want wet food, bedding, etc. Was this too random/spammy of a post? I've had fuzzy brain all day and can't keep track of my thoughts too well. Thank goodness it is the weekend!!!

thanks, CR, for clearing up some of our questions --- it's far better to KNOW than to worry and let all sorts of suppositions run through the mind ....

your first message was cryptic enough that it was easy to take it as:: someone told you off and you were going away MAD ..,

or had been told to get out of town

c'mon back when you have gained some calm and peace interiorly ,.,, of course we'll miss you like crazy

and if you can ... HURRY back
