Hi All!

A friend of my son's friend was looking for a couple of roosters for his girls, I had to turn him down because I will not take the chance of infecting his birds with Mereks(sp)

Jon is back in Hawaii.

Night All!

I have 5 chicks & 3 adults. What colors do they want?

Rainy morning here, and suppose to continue all day. Sounds like a great set-up cuties.
Cute pups Jim....looking like a lazy day here...wish I was in Hawaii.

Jim- what cuties!

Happy Father's Day (a day early, I know) to all the dads

Nothing really new here except that I'm on summer vacation now (yay teacher schedule, boo no pay over summer).

Cuties, I forgot what you said regarding having any LB available this summer.


Anyone with Buckeyes ( sp ) ?

Nice looking pups!!

Sounds like a great setup Cuties

We put a fourth wall up on a three-sided shed (with windows and doors), put hardware cloth all around the outside, installed automatic pop doors, and partitioned it into three areas. One side for the chickens, one for turkeys, and the center for storage. Each side has their own 1/2-acre woven wire fenced pasture that they easily go in and out of (foxes do, too

). Last winter each side had a "sun room" (lean to with greenhouse skin) with heavily mulched ground added on the outside to go into during the day if they chose. Saved me a lot of hassle of shoveling snow for a spot for them.

Any ideas on where to purchase Poultry Nipples in the Green Bay (or north) area?
Fleet Farm is sold out and so it Tractor Supply in Marinette.
Don't want to order online and pay as much for shipping as I do for the part...

Well, they do at Fleet Farm!

I have gotten a couple of strange looks asking about them, but when I say nipple waterer's it gets even stranger.
Those ducks are so cute! You going to hatch some eggs?
I like the pups too, they are growing so fast.

DH and I were talking about digging a pond - where we want to put it, what to do with the dirt we dig out. So he turns to me and says "so, you going to get ducks?" How is that for an enabler!
