Wisconsin "Cheeseheads"

mJoe... I've been having my asparagus come up a few here and there, some froze on me.

bl4... I that "bash soap?" In any case... looks nice and sounds great!

Jim... sounds like ya' may have had the date wrong on those eggs! Glad they hatched for ya'! My memory is great! It's the recall that sucks!

Glad Nora is doing good!

Remember I can get chicks... He has Crevecoeurs, Ameraucanas, and I think the other was Sumatras as well as the Dominiques. If anyone else wants some I can put in an "order" and I could bring them to the bash... It would have to be soon, so he can make sure he has them hatched. I think they're $2.50ea could be less.

Remember that cute, sweet little kitty we got last fall? She's going to be a mom in a couple of weeks!

We tried keeping her in when she was in heat...but she would lay in wait until the dogs went in or out and would run out right between their legs!

Chicks are getting active and some realize they have little wings! So cute!

1 of the guineas didn't come to roost. I think it may have been the one trying to go broody but kept jumping off the nest when someone came around.

Either that or she's with "the boys". I'll look for her tomorrow. Just hope she's within the fenced area.

Well, guess that's it... night all!

Good Morning All! Well not so much. Bf4me that is so so sad about your friend! Dan hope things go well with your mom! Cind that sounds good just give me a heads up so I can put the forks on the tractor. Everytime I walk past the garage I look to see if that speargrass that you gave me is up yet.

Looks like I'm gonna lose another PR. Brownie my favorite hen is not doing well. No more PR's for me. She's only 3. Jim you know the old saying "I know everything, just can't remember it all at once." Hope things go well with Nora and the quail! Cute kid and chick pics! Tomski glad your back! We worry ya know. WELCOME to anyone new! I can't keep up. Big day outside today so much to do. Better get movin.

Good morning all. I just popped on for a minute; going to get hay this morning. Welcome back Tom--glad you got your computer "fixed!"
Cind guineas dont really go broody like chickens do. They lay about 1,000 eggs in nest and then start to sit. If you find it in time and the babies are hatching you can take the remaining eggs and pop them under a broody hen or bator. There are probably some that ate only partially developed since they seem to like to continue to lay in then nest while one is brooding! (stupid birds!)

I have to report that I lost my female Yellow Naped Amazon last night. It looks like she just fell right off her perch. Does anyone know of a lab that will do a necropsy? I would like to know what happened. Buddy is sad and is just hanging on the cage next to wear I set her.

RIP Coumatu....

Terri O: So sorry to here about your loss :-(

Surprise egg is now under one of my broody hens.

Morning all!

TO- I'm so sorry about your bird. I would call your vet and let them know what you want to do. They should know who you can contact or they may have to send in the bird to have the lab do the necropsy. You could also call the UW's vet school. They may be able to help.

So, as promised.....Quail PIcs!!!! These are ok shots. Not the best but...




Ok gotta go...
