Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

I'm heading out to pick up my hatching eggs and use my 10% off TSC certificate (I know, not much, but I'll take it!) Have a great day!

Better than a stick in the eye!

Whether you get him friends or not, the chick will be fine.




It’s not something I would do or encourage...


How did I miss that you found out who did that, and that it was a kid?? How did you know it was him?


I hate it when my brain won’t let go of things! The “what ifs and woulda, coulda shouldas” can make a person crazy if you let them.

Great news for both you and the boy! Glad to hear it!

Hello, Pond!
I’ve been busy getting my coop ready the past couple of days, and in the process tore a muscle in my arm. Any kind of movement was painful. It’s slowly getting better.

DH didn’t pick up chicks today. The hatchery said it was too cold to ship them...

Bobbi, How did you tear the muscle? Ouch, that sounds painful! Hope it heals up quickly for you!

I think it was the two cement blocks I moved out of the chicken coop on Sunday...

You just never know i guess. I was sure groaning under the weight of 80lb. bags of concrete!

12 Jubilee/Blue Jubilee eggs
6 Lemon/Columbian eggs
16 assorted silkie, frizzle, sizzle, d'uccle eggs.
Wow.

major Hope you get a great hatch!

I would be, too. I have moved cement blocks before without incident, but it’s the only thing I can think of that I did.

@Ravynscroft and @casportpony

I treated the flock with the dosage of ivomec etc. as you told me....

The flock went from laying zero to LAYING! Easier to lay when you aren't anemic I think.

But looking at my old man rooster... he clearly has had scale lice for a bit too long/too heavy of a load. Will the ivomec stuff knick that back too? Or do I need to catch him and do the soak the legs and then coat them in oil/cream crud stuff?

I need to padlock the pantry whenever I do something dumb and hurt myself because I always wind up gaining weight during the recovery period.

Sometimes it is just angle, or balance. I sneezed once and broke 3 ribs!
