Yes, they do carry their young. Their choice of a place to keep them may not be your choice, but they will carry them. Thank you SO much for letting me know what YOU would have done "weeks ago". Just one more reason I never come to this site anymore. Ask one question and get nothing but people...

Just want to make it clear--I AM NOT raising baby chicks. But this little sweet Barred Rock is. And what a great Mother she is so far... chewing up a peanut to serve her babies. Two hatched yesterday and we think two more will hatch today if they are going to. And they eat right from her...

I can actually move them to their own little coop but I am waiting to see what the other two eggs will do. I watched one latch onto her waddle yesterday and wouldn't let go. She had to "toss" it a few times before it went tumbling across her back and into the back of the nest. I wondered if she...

How in the world did chickens survive all these years without human intervention? I have a broody barred rock who is sitting on two eggs and two chicks. Chicks are a day old. We are hoping the other two eggs hatch today. Her nest is in the coop with the other chickens and she is about 3 feet...

Quote: This is, unfortunately, not possible. Our Mayor (joe) won't hear anything unless it is submitted in writing a month before. This is Joe's town and he owns the council. They roll with him. There are two members of council who don;t roll with him but it isn't enough to win the vote for a...

"BYCer's UNITE" IS RIGHT!!!!!!!!! You guys are terrific as usual. Augustmom, I'll email you shortly. To reply to some of you, The Big Blue Notice was on blue card stock and had a section of the ord printed on it. I quoted it in the original post. The ordinances are online and I have looked them...

The big blue notice was taped to my front door yesterday. In the big blue notice, they included part of the ordinance that states "It SHALL BE UNLAWFUL FOR ANY REASON TO KEEP ANY DOMESTICATED FARM ANIMAL OTHER THAN FOUR DOGS AND FOUR CATS WITHIN THE CORPORATE LIMITS OF THE CITY". And they...

Quote: Pepper cookers DH and I were at Meijer today and they had some pepper cookers in their grill section for only 4.99. They are pretty cute becaue they are actually shaped like a pepper, but they are a lot lighter in weight. We paid 20 dollars for ours a couple of years ago at GM and...

Quote: Yep, that would be us. I was just bummed out that we didn't have very many peppers on yet so we could do more. The holder the peppers were in is the key to cooking them. We found it at Gander Mountain in the grill section and we wish we had two of them. He just hulls out the peppers...

apparently we're going to have to add a contest next year... sexiest legs. Start working on those tans, fellas!

And here are some more of that kevlar pinata... And, YES, that is Rob in the tree hanging the pinata!! And that's Fr. Chuck taking his whack at the chicken, as well.

Kathleen and Rob, Thanks so much for all your hard work making this Chickenstock so successful. It was great seeing so many people face-to-face. I'm going to go ahead and post my pics here....

I don't know what's wrong with me tonight but I can't come up with anything that can be posted.

Me too! I now have quite the puncture wound in my leg from yesterdays fiasco. And this fat girl couldn't catch him although I did give it my very best shot. There was blood everywhere--all mine. He ran in his pen, finally and spent the rest of the day in Time out. He did not like that at all...

He's really got to go. Anyone?

Hey guys! I haven't been on much for over a week. Big birthday blowout for Mom last weekend has left me completely worn out. lol (Shultzy, I hope you're ready for this!!) Sounds like this thing is going to be the chickenstock to be at this year! Woo Hoo! I still am trying to get rid of one...
