I wonder if these angry buyers have never bought eggs online before? I mean, what do they expect? the postal service workers to deliver it on a pillow and say, 'since there is eggs in here we were all very careful, because that's the kind of people all us postal service workers are!'

Trapped a little raccoon last night by the coop that was broken into. He won't be making that mistake again!

He killed three of them but I didn't see the 4th until this morning... one of the pullets has a big cut in her skin all the way up her side and I didn't realize it until last night. I'm guessing I'll have to put her down... I checked out the wound, hoping to be able to clean her up and butterfly her back together, but the flies have already laid eggs on the wound, the dirty buggers.

The traps will be set for more possibly thiefs until this new coop is built!

I had posted this in another thread and wanted to share it" Regarding Scones!!


We just made a batch this morning and half are already gone! These are the most wonderful scones I've ever tasted so far. They do come from a mix. If you run across King Arthur Flour brand mixes do try them if you have not already. We added powdered sugar for topping which adds just the right amount for sweetness. They are loaded with dried oranges and cranberries. Has anyone else ever tried these from the mix? This probably sounds like an ad for King Arthur Flour, LOL but they are sooo delicious!


Fresh-baked scones, hot from the oven... it just doesn't get any better! Cranberry-Orange Scone Mix from King Arthur Flour. Anyone care for one?

That is awesome! Would any of those eye candies be in my box???? I am so in love with the little Seramas. Hubby is going to build me a mini-mansion for them. The poor BIG birds will be jealous

If you keep her cleaned up maggots wouldnt have to be a death sentance do they. I mean Dr's still actually use them to clean up wounds some times. ? Im so sorry for your loss. I think with the weather being all funky the predetors are haveing to be a bit more assertive this year.

A few years ago we had an old sick guniea pig get maggots in a wound. The vet had a pill that was made for chickens to kill the maggots and she had us try I on the guniea pig. It worked I don't know the nme of it. Maybe you vet will sell you some without bringing the chicken in. Our vet gives us whatever, well sell us whatever we need for the chickens without bringing them in.
