PEEPsicles! Isn't it funny about the grass?? I think there is actually an expression of complete horror and surprise on their faces.. until they EAT it.. then it's all good.

Its great to watch and makes your day to see them freeze then curiosity then fun!

I take it that the Aussie dog likes b a t h s?

Not really but he tolerates em. He stands perfect and doesn't try to move or get away. He has actually fallen asleep in the tub before. He just knows that when he gets all muddt out hunting he has to have a bath. You wouldn't believe the things he does but I can prove all of it.

Most of the time if you have to spell b...a...t...h in front of the dog it's because they hate them! That's so cute!

Aussies are a beautiful smart dog. Love them.

Yeah all I have to do is tell Quincy " you are dirty" and he is gone to the tub! He really is awesome! And does such a good job keeping track of DW.

Hey can you guys help me support my friend who is doing a fundraiser.

Guillermo (is at Gonzaga and will be studying in Italy this fall and has gotten a scholarship every year and goes to gonzaga on scholarships and loans), his sister Christina (she has gotten a scholarship for every year of college and is graduating next month) , his brother Armando (is here at WSU with me) and even Myself have been recipients of scholarships (3 years in a row) from the Washington Apple Education Foundation

WAEF helps support many families from many backgrounds and help fund many families who's kids are first generation high school graduates, first generation college students.
Many scholarships in this area are in memorial of many old grower families. The funds are split between serving NCW all the way north to Omak area and down past Yakima.
Guillermo is a Business Major, Christina is an Accountant Major, Armando is an Architect Major, and I, I am a Tree Fruit and Vegetable Management Major.

"The Foundation expects to award about 150 scholarships totaling approximately $400,000 in student aid." THIS YEAR>
"We've received approximately 400 scholarship applications for the 2011-2012 year." Me and my friends are most likely 4/400 that have applied.

sorry, i know its not chicken related but this is a really good program and the scholarship application is very involved/detailed.

Any amount of dollar will help.
this is where you can make a pledge

looks like there was no night crew on, last night ---

so it's time to smell the coffee ..

then go let the chicks out to explore the wonders of damp grass

wait til the feed store opens and see if there are any more "broken" bags of feed at a good price

I know that MANY-MANY posts ago information regarding Apple Cider vinegar and also about worming has been posted. I just went to the BYC information area and did some research and printed off information.

Would any of the chicken pros here on this site like to comment or advise? Especially for any newbies. How do you do?

Does the AVC have to be organic? Do you worm for prevention or should you only worm when you think they have them? Do you buy the products at the feed store or on line? Again, do you do prophylactically or do you take in a fecal sample to a vet?

I am still learning and gleening information from all of you.
