I hope the trainer's horse works out and she can show successfully tomorrow and that something can also be worked out for Spec. Was he the tall bay with the roany face marking or the lighter brown/bay I saw?

This is Marra and Spec at their show last year.

4-H Question... Before I purchase "Poultry 1: Scratching the Surface" for my 3 kids. Do they each need their own copy?

I saw this and panicked. We never, ever ordered ours, but our poultry leader said it didn't really matter. He gave us the chicken-part chart (not a butchered chicken! Go eat dinner!) and we should know those names. But, well, hmm. Too late anyway really. I think we have learned all that anyhow. We did check out the 4-H guide to raising chickens from the library-- actually a pretty good little book.

Does the rhubarb have to be red to pick and use? We have lots of large stalks but they're still green.

Green or pink or red depends more on the variety. Stalks can start out pinkish-red and turn green as they go. I've had it every way. Newer varieties are pretty dark red, because people expect that, not green or (if it bakes together) orange-y. You would die of old age before some varieties would have more than a bit of red. It's all delicious, all perfectly good to eat.

Medicated Grower​

We got some medicated grower by mistake, and we can't feed it to the ducks, so, if anyone needs any, its available at our cost, $26.50 for a 100 lbs. Just come and pick it up. Let me know.

Those of you who have linoleum on your coop floors - how is it affixed? For my last coop DH says it had self adhesive strips underneath. I got a scrap from my cousin yesterday and it does not. Do you staple? Nail it? Is there glue or some adhesive strips I can find at the hardware store? I am SO close to finishing my VF coop - I'm want to move the Silkies out of the house this weekend!
TIA!

Mine is just laying there with nothing holding it. Stay put just fine.

Hope everybody north of me ( that would be nearly all of ya) is surviving the thunder storm. I was watching the sky and it was blacker than T....... Ooop's lets just say it was black. I could hear the rumbling but didn't get to see any light show.
