If anyone is going to be needing a wyandotte rooster, I have some really fun colors. I'm in Western WI, but I have a kid going to school in the UP, so will be crossing the state more than I want to.
Wyodreamer, I actually keep my horses in my orchard. It took them about 4 years of being in there to realize if they lift their heads there are apples to be eaten. They don't usually take too many, but I have it set up so I can move them out of there if need be.
This talk of "thinning" the...
I also had a silkie hatch out two Dutch bantams last month. Good thing I have a heated room in my shed just for my Dutch or she'd be in my house with them.
The new year is starting out pretty good. I found a wonderful home for one of my roosters yesterday. Only 8 more to go. Lol. I wish the poultry processor was open this time of year.
We are, once again, trying to get a chicken ordinance in Amery. We are designing a brochure to submit to the city council. But we don't have a nice coop to add. It's so gross out right now I can't get a good one. Anyone have a picture of a coop less than 64 sq feet with at least one window...
I have one 18 yr old cat that can't jump anymore so she has to use her claws to climb up on things. She ruined our pleather counter height stools that were actually pretty expensive. She also pees on anything you leave on the laundry room floor.
One 5 yr old male cat that just shreds the...
Did I misspell living room? Well, my son watches movies in there with his girlfriend. . . . Hopefully they haven't made it into a loving room. I have 4 cats inside and they drive me crazy. I can't imagine 9. And 28 cockatiels? Lol. I need my husband to read these posts so he stops...
I stepped up my crazy bird lady status by buying a huge indoor aviary for my parakeets. It's actually bigger than I thought and takes up to much space in my loving room. But that's ok. They won't be flinging seed all over the floor anymore, so that's a win.
I am in Amery. I have Dutch and cochin bantams, Orpingtons (chocolate, black, silver laced, gold laced, chocolate silver laced, chocolate gold laced and cuckoo), bantam crosses and some orpington crosses.
My Blue Laced Red Wyandotte from Delisha died today. I got her at the last bash I went...
Now that I've been able to keep the fox away, I am overpopulated with chickens. I like to have 25-35 chickens and 10-15 ducks over winter. I have 59 chickens and 12 ducks. I need to stop letting these hens set. This time of year nobody wants chickens so I'll have to try to rehome them in...
I have orpingtons and call ducks due to hatch on the 19th. I'm getting excited. But I have to sell ducklings this year. Last year I kept all of them and sold as juveniles and ended up with a lot of extra drakes to get rid of. It's just hard to sell the babies. I have a waiting list, so...
I cleaned my coop today and got ready for the negative temps. AND I trimmed my pig's feet. Poor Alice had hooves that were getting out of control. I just got her drunk and took the goat hoof shears to her. Worked perfectly.
Does anyone else ever list things for sale and then when someone wants it, you question whether you should sell it? I listed my two hen turkeys for sale for $75 and 3 people have emailed asking when they can come pick them up. I don't have a Tom so really don't have a use for them but I'm...
