I'm not trying to make any $$$ just trying to help me destress. Birds sure help me do that. I stayed outside with them for quite some time yesterday. I felt like taking away his birthday and locking him in a closet. I was so angry.

My birds are my "fix" everyday. They are so relaxing to talk to and watch.

I miss my bird fix already. Before I left yesterday I spent an hour at the coop watching. Sometimes the birds really have a simple life. No real worries. That and they do not fear spiders....

I was forgiven by BB "my pet" for not seeing her the whole break... it was rainy and nasty at the coop.... go figure the nice day is the day i leave. If i can find more birds like her Dad says i could have lots of chickens....
Pidgin in the background has chicken PTSD. she will cuddle and suddenly run away scared.... that fire she survived messed her up.... her tail is starting to grow back. i saw 2 feathers. and i think she was trying to lay an egg for me.... I don't know if she can lay or if she had internal damage.... i will be surprised if I hear from dad that there was an egg in the box. I know BB is taking a little break and I don't expect the BLRW hen in there to lay because of the stress of a new home.

I don't know why all my photos rotate on upload..... grr... they display correctly on my computer before upload...


Me and BB. my favorite bird.... I knew she forgave me when she tried to eat my diamond earring off me ear. She loves the earring.... many birds get facinated when they get close enough to look.

I need to get more large fowl Brahmas..... they are my favorite breed. BB is special because I got her for christmas from Narial on here. and BB has a crooked keel bone, totally bent sideways, and i had to cut her toenail off when she broke it... she still "gallops" to me from when she used to limp, the "gait" is what she knows. and it is a "gallop" not the even run.

I think the multi-quote" button?

I tried....it didn't work that way. I am frustrated. You take today off to catch up?

you just read and hit the multi quote button for what ever you want to reply too.... (nothing will happen)
Then when done reading you hit the reply button and all the post you hit multi on will pop into the post box.

um, I think that may be right, I might go with 16 vs 18 only because, in my experience, chickens that are not exactly "meaties" are stringy and tough, so I think the younger that you can butcher them and still have some meat on them the better! Just MHO

OK thanks... I think I am gonna make stock out of them or maybe chicken and rice soup to can depending on how big they get. I am gonna have the 10 cornish in my freezer so I might now have much room.

RFF is right. Click on one multi-quote button. Then click on the individual quote buttons. I believe if you want them in a specific order you click on the quote button in the order you want them, top to bottom, in your reply.

Nope....just did it for this one....did not pick up the post above this one that you "multi-quoted".  What I am meaning is the "quote" inside a "quote" inside a "quote". Does this make sense?

it is a option in your settings...

Re: pics. I took a bunch at the Chehalis show and didn't take any in Monroe. It was a little chaotic and disappointing for me in comparison to the Chehalis show. I'm not sure why. Maybe I was there (Chehalis) for more of the time and saw more people come and go. Plus everyone was in a small area (CR's booth) in Chehalis, which seemed more conducive to introductions. I only saw a handful of people in passing at this show. The food went quickly. When DH and DS showed up, most of the items were gone. But...the kids had a good time. It seemed like there was a little more variety, especially in what birds people brought to sell. (Chicks! Yay!)

So, anyone having NEW problems with BYC? My Rich Text Editor haS gone away, says mY browser doesn't support it ( didn't change the browser) and now I'm getting musical adS from IAMS!

WHAT IS GOING ON!​

YES!!

Hey RonB, a very nice idea. I live down in the souther part of Thurston Co, about 14 S of Olympia right off of I-5 and US12. What's the distance between us?

Sounds like your pretty close to CR's place. Hey CR is US12 the turn off for you?? It is 155 miles from my place to CR's ! I don't think the DW is going to let me come down that way anymore

the last TWO times I went to CR's place, chickens followed me home

One of my new chicks has feet that curl toward the center instead of spreading out. Will that correct itself?
