Yes you can train them

DD has a science fair project to do this spring. She wants it to involve chickens. We have an incubator and she was thinking she wanted to hatch chicks, but I'm not so keen on that; I really do not need another chicken!

She has a T-shirt that has on it: "I love chickens, they know EVERYTHING!" I got to thinking; maybe she can train some of our bantam roosters to run through obstacle courses; it would give her a project and the little roos something to do to earn their keep.

Can it be done? Has anyone tried it?

I get myself in so much trouble when I go to dog shows. I come home broke and with a dog... Its bad when the dog show's are at the Enumclaw Fair grounds and Puyallup one too..

lol it is a 12 day old miniature pinscher puppy, very fat and happily snoozing. hopefully she grows up to be as good a show dog as her mom and dad

and just for anyone interested the seattle kennel club show is coming up, march 10 and 11 at the qwest events center in Seattle.

Have to go, I hate yes I dont use that word much but I hate driving in the dark with snow comming down

I better go have to find something to eat and get some sleep..

I can remember when I was a kid (just a few weeks ago ya know) They had these display cases that would have a chicken in them. When ya put a quarter in the chicken would play the piano! There was another that the chicken would run the bases of a baseball diamond.

Is that a SAR dog I see lurking in CO. ??

totalcolour good thing you had a well placed arm in the second photo or it would have been labeled a "wardrobe malfunction." You had quite a dog

My parents had alot of snapshots of me as a very young girl, totally topless. I often wondered why my sister and brother were always covered. Couldn't they afford tops for me???

My kids were always taking their clothes off and tossing them in the bushes, or even out of the car window while I was driving. Maybe that's what you were doing?

Quote: oh, that's not me, that's my daughter! As the girls got older, he used to walk them to the bus stop every morning, and wait until they were on the bus for school before coming home (I know, I watched from behind some trees!)

What kind of chicken is that ?

FYI I have some things going on which may keep me from being on much for a few days. This is for the most part good stuff. See I have a friend who also does metal work and who's things I have been selling. Well Steve called me and ask if I would come help him make some of these little chicks to sell. It's a win win deal we are making lots of them preparing for an Easter rush. Steve already sold 25 to a local mini mart type store and expects to get them in more places. We also plan to have them in our booth March 31 at the Community yard sale (SWW fair). I should also have some at Stevenson and Canby.
This is very good for me right now since he is paying me to make them and I am working in his shop (that is warmer than my work area consisting of a tin roof). He supplies all the materials and equipment. He also buys lunch (fast food) and brings it to the shop.
We made 65 of these in the last 2 days.
Does it get much better get paid to do something I enjoy so much?

Well that doesn't sound much like WORK to me so yea!! That's awesome CR!! go for it buddy!!!

OK thanks!! just what I wanted to know!! I am hatching my brinsea, I moved the darn thing cause the outlet in my bathroom quit!!! My husband changed the outlet and we still don't have power!! Anyway, in moving it, the temp dropped and I played hell getting it back up, so I broke out the LG just in case I had to move the batch, so far so good!!

I only hatched once in the LG and I didn't like it!! But, I getter out so I might as well use it to brood in as they hatch. Got to take care of my turkey lurkeys too!!

Oh by the way!! I GOT A TURKEY EGG yesterday!! YEEE HAW!!!!

if they were only fertile!! ???

 

[pettec63]

Oh I should note that the turkey eggs in my bator are not from my turkeys, mine are just now laying, but the Tom is having some difficulty!
Only time will tell if I get a fertile egg, if not!!! ??? No more BBB for me!!
