The quilt is gorgeous. It looks like the quilt kit from Amazon. I wish I could help you about the sideways thing. But it's all I can do to turn mine on.

Ok check it out, see if it is not identical...it must be a kit.
Tamara I would love to donate a quilted thing but sew machine is packed away and have nada here...but I will get something nice...I think garden stuff will be good..patio table candles, yeard ornaments and tools...potted plants ?

Edited to add: I HATE the way these birds are NOT SOP coloration!!!

That's who those over 55 communities are for; people who can't stand any noise but their own.

Ask the neighbor if the sound of the egg song is to loud would they prefer one of those yapping dogs that bark when a tree branch moves instead?
Enough is enough.
Some how people can keep dogs that bark all day but chicken noise is bad?

Not telling you to be mean but if we don't stand up for ourselves the idiots will be trying to control everything including the people in King County whom have no restrictions and it will only get worse.

I so agree with you Greg. The level of control is becoming overwhelming. I know that while I don't want be annoyed by constant noise, that there will be times when noise happens. I can remember having a neighbor that complained because one day the little boys were playing in the street (cul-de-sac) with a wagon. The neighbor was upset because they were making a little noise. It was less than an hour in the middle of the day. There is a point when people are to critical of everything. I would have understood if the kids played like that all day every day. But maybe an hour in the middle of the day, and it wasn't like the kids were screaming either.

I think that the ones that complain are often the ones with major control issues. It's sad when these people can control everyone else around them.

Soo... Hypothetically speaking and not naming any names... Say someone got a little Brinsea incubator, and say they found some interesting eggs to purchase to hatch in said incubator, but they were limited by city or county codes as to how many chickens they could keep - is there any harm in maybe keeping one or two that one might favor, and then either selling or giving away the rest? Just so that, hypothetically speaking of course, that they could try hatching and raising a few chicks just for the experience? Would that be ethical, fair and kosher to do in the chicken world?

I don't know if anyone else has answered this...I'm a few pages behind still! But, I know that Spokane city doesn't actually count them as "chickens" until they're over 12 weeks old. So you could, in theory, have lots of baby chicks running aroulnd and still be under the limit until they get big enough to find new homes for.

There is no show in Monrow this weekend, there is just Chickielady driving up from Raymond to visit her son & grandson...and when I do, I will stop and see Zgoatlady, and then stop and see WA4-HPoultryMom, then around Snohomish and down south on I-5 and maybe stopping at Rainwolf's on the way home.


Yeah, we'd love to meet up! DIYSeattle is right next to Rainwolf too.

How many of you home school your kids?

We use the K12 curriculum. We have tossed around the idea of using something different when we get out there.

I've thought about it. I have many friends that homeschool. I also have several friends who use the Washington Virtual Academey and they are all very pleased ... best of both. Only thing is they feel ostrasized by other members of a homeschool group they joined because they are not truly homeschooled. I think homeschooling is quite common here.

I'd get one! Not sure if we are able to make the show. Home shopping taking up all our weekends. Promised DH I wouldn't get any more chickens until we move.
