Good morning! I hear ya on the incubating thing BBP! That is exactly what happens with mine--the later hatching of the not at all hatching part. My last one wasnt too bad...but darn it, I want them ALL to hatch! My hens do it all the time...why cant I?
Soooo--I read all the pages I missed and then went to bed andthis morning I cant remember much of what I read! Oh well. Was it you that said something about a Black Bear? I thought they were vegetarians? I know that they defend their cubs...but I guess I wouldnt see a chicken as a threat! Maybe it was after their food? One was spotted in the Watertown area eating at a bird feeder...I thought that was pretty amazing! WHen DH was fishing up north he and his friends got hustled off by a mom with cubs....THAT would be scary!
Glad to hear you are finally doing some work outside DrH!
I guess P2 is becoming the dominant roo? That is good for Buster...it will keep him out of the pot!
My neighbors worked up the land next to me and I saw my guineas out there looking for bugs and stuff. Of course he called me right up and said I needed to keep them out of their cause they were going to be seeding alfalfa and they would eat up all the seeds! I told him they only eat bugs
the problem is, if the crows go into the field and eat the seeds then my birds will get blamed any how...I really need a fence. (too bad guineas will fly over any fence I put up!)
Raiquee...it is too bad that people are judging you on what you do. I personally would not update stuff on FB! I joined so I could keep up with what my kids are up to...I dont share too much though...nobody's business! Pretty much seems like a gigantic high school on there any way!
I will stop now!
Well--gotta move on! Have a fantastic day! Terri O
