Hi all!! It's been a while since I've been on here so I wanted to stop by and see how all the awesome Florida Peeps are doing?! Checking in from beautiful little Okeechobee Fl
Hey everyone! I hope all is well with yall! Things are going great here! Thanks to Celtic Oaks, we have 5 beautiful layers & an unexpected but amazing roo whom my sons LOVE dearly! (our last little girl should start laying very shortly I believe.) My camera broke or else I would share some new...
Thanks! I'm not sure yet, she (he) still seems to be "acting" girlie; but I did notice the red breaking through. I will try to get a pic or 2 this weekend of her to text to you. We have 2 official layers w/ I think a 3rd finally comfortable enough to start up now. So far we are getting 2...
Hi all!!! I haven't been able to be on in quite a while, my laptop crashed; but I am up & going again. YAY!! I hope all is well with everyone & your families & animals! Things are great here for myself & family, we now have a lopear bunny & 7 new chickens! Thanks to CelticOaksFarm we now have (I...
Ahhh I feel so out of touch which my BYC fam! I haven't been able to get on here in a little while & it just took me a while to catch up on eveyones posts.... So here goes: green writing for Happy St Patty's day, WELCOME to all our new FL chicken fanatics & our 500th member Bloomchicks...
I can't wait to meet ya & pick up our new "babies"! I think I have even got my hubby excited about it too!! I think we will be up that way on St patty's day weekend...
I'll be more than happy to take a few hens or pullets off your hands, if you wanna send some for free. lol...
On another note... All we have left is our white EE roo Foghorn & whatever it is/was that attacked my girls didn't come back last night. We closed him up in the coop (which he was NOT...
My husband now thinks the same thing. He just went to town to buy a trap to see if we can catch whatever is doing this. I went out this morning after my original post to find that whatever had gotten in now got my last silkie & my 5 year old was with my & was devastated. The tiny hole above the...
Thank you! I cleaned her the best I could & kept trying to get her to eat or drink, but I think her 'jaw' was broken... My son & I sat on the couch with her trying to give her comfort (which she seemed to love like old times) and passed in her sleep in my arms. This is so hard on him but I am...
Someone please help!!! Something got into my coup yesterday early morning & attacked Luna, my broody Japanese Bantam Cross; && cracked open her eggs along with my silkie Sparkle's eggs she was sitting on. I am going to try & get a few pictures of the aftermath, & my poor Luna. What ever it was...
No tracks that we could find today, but we have kept our remaining chickens locked up pretty tight the last couple of days just to be on the safe side. Foghorn is definitely not happy about not being able to free range, but he is loving his extra treats and so are our 2 broodies & the 2 dom...
I don't know if you are looking for a small town or not. But I live in Okeechobee & I love it here. Nice & quiet, yet close enough to the coast to be able to spend a day at a beach or go shopping... Good luck in your search!
Thanks for looking Stan. Hopefully once things slow down around here for us we'll be able to make it to a few swaps soon. Our youngest just turned a year old so it'll be easier to leave him with grandparents for a weekend...
On another note... What kind of predator what leave like uprooted...
