I hear ya. I was really bummed because I let the whole Lav Orp flock out, which included the pure Lav's which were generation 1, and the trio of splits which was generation 2 and I was just about to start breeding the splits for generation 3, and they took one of my two hens!!!! That was hard. But I think Cowgirlgrace is going to save me as she has just finished with her splits.

They Fav's I'm getting are bantam. I got a few eggs from her in Chehalis and had 2 brothers hatch out...a blue salmon and salmon (black, like the one CR got from her!). So now I need some girls!

So I think Ron gave some coyotes a map to my house and they got two of my chickens this evening.
Got my Orp that had stopped laying due to the two dog attacks last year, and one of my "almost to POL" Welsummers.
So now I am down to 8.
Maybe I will need to get a couple more now?
Man! I guess I will need to go sit outside with my shotgun while my chickens free range.
Always happens when I go in to pee and get sidetracked for longer than I plan. Dang It!

Hope you all are having a good night!

That stinks...I hope they don't come back, or if they do, that you get them!

thats because they are watching you. if you sit with your shotgun do it out of sight. its getting close to breeding season too...they will den up behind my house here but to bad for them, I have some hired guns waiting to come over...

Tamara they are not going to go away either, they got free lunch and they will not go away until all of the lunch is gone. Maybe my pals can come over and coyote watch in the evening with some fire power

Hey guys quick question... Does anyone in here breed EE. I am thinkin of gettin one maybe 2 babies for my boys.

I have mega bunches of every EE and OE you would ever want, chicks, eggs & started birds.

Dropping in for a sec to ask, anyone got photos of the hens/pullets I sold them a while ago when I was cutting back on my flock? I can't remember who got what Araucanas and EE's and would LOVE to see how they matured, especially the tailed Araucana girl.

Would also love to know how everyone's are doing. I heard from the new home of some BCM's I sold, I think that's about it lately.

Just wanna know.

So far, my puter is much faster, e-mail is like lightening fast !!!!!!!!!!
I mean right now !!
Usually this time of night I am licked up !
We (with comcast tech dude) downloaded Google Chrome & he zipped through my puter like I was standing still.......I was blown away how fast he zipped through the web, forums, etc.
I was embarrassed.
But he said to keep track of records as I have done with connectivity.

I am extremely impressed with Google Chrome, although yeah...take some getting used to !

Sorry about yer girlz Kim. Hey I do have a map to a place just up the road from ya. The guy works during PRIME SHOPPING hours (nights). Never mind ya probably would get stuck with eggs lacking pigment.

I had a fun, interesting and slightly exciting afternoon. I got to send a scumbag to jail. Long story short He had stolen knives from Walmart then tried to take an employee hostage. I didn't know all these details when I chased him down and kept him cornered for the cops. When the first cop (who I knew) got there and not so nicely told the guy what he would do if he didn't show hands I knew it was serious stuff. At least I got to get in his face and compliment him on his nice bracelets just before they put him in the car !

I would love a natural kukui nut lei, but only if you have time and it's no trouble! Mahalo.

Hope the weather stays cool while you're unpacking, and then warms up to something pleasant.

I would love one also & a hunk of Pele`s hair about 3' long if you can swing it...will reimburse when ya come home !!!!!!!!!!
