I don't know how long it's been, but it's been too long since I've been on here. Depression, illness, and pain have kept me in my recliner not caring to do anything but I am trying to change that starting today.
So much has changed on here since my last visit......yay backyardchickens!! I...
Stray cats keep getting under my house and having kittens. The problem is they leave them and don't always come back to take care of them. Earlier this year I was bitten by one after trying to get it out from under the porch where 3 of my dogs had them pinned. Last november we kept smelling...
I am so sad because I lost my Bruce Goose, Goosey Lucy, 2 Amigos, Quakers, and one of my Embden's. I am sick so I went to bed early and didn't tell hubby to go lock up. Hubby is sooo tired he fell asleep in his chair as usual and didn't go lock up. My dog in the front yard was raising cain about...

I ask this because it has been so crazy/scary in my life lately that I think I am going to break. I know a lot of people who are dealing with money problems but man have we been dealing....We couldn't pay the taxes on our home so now our house payment is going up. Our gas bill went up big time...
If you do thanks for your time and any thoughts or prayers you can give would be great. I'm sorry if this is long or confusing but I just don't know where to begin but knew I would feel better sharing here with this great group of friends. My cousin's son Kenny is in the Army and Tues night we...
I have a cousin who really needs all the prayers he can get so I came here to my chicken family for help. He is 29 years old and he had a massive stroke. It has left him paralyzed on his right side. They got him up yesterday and are trying to get him walking. He trys to form words but he is...
Thanks to all you enablers I just had to have an incubator to hatch my own lil fuzzy chicks! So with lots of hours spent researching on here and help from another BYC'er this is what my hubby built. Thanks Speckledhen for that picture of your turner cause my dh was thinking that but didn't know...
I had a coyote attack and kill 3 hens and 1 roo Monday morning. My Mom and Dad came down today and went to TSC and they had just got the chicks in while they were there. They didn't even get the chicks in the tubs yet. Ok enough talking~meet my new RIR chicks
Aint they sweet!?!?!?!?
If you have a moment and can send up a prayer for me I would appreciate it greatly! I have a lot of medical issuses and have not been able to work for 12 years so I finally filed for disability. I have gone to two of their DR's and I am waiting to hear from them. I really need this because I...
Do they look the same? If you have the same breed duck do they all lay the same color egg? The reason I ask is because I have 3 female buff orp ducks and not sure about 4 of 5 geese. I have gotten 8 eggs and 3 of them look like Aracaunna's laid them (except for size cause if she laid that then...
Someone left a empty feed bag on the porch and now the hens are taking turns laying in it. No wonder I was missing some eggs
Just thought some of my chicken family might get a laugh out of this.
Just thought I would share some pictures and try to cheer up some on this sad day and sad week I have had. Spot my 1st roo was killed Friday night.

I have mine together and I am wondering if I need to seperate them I have noticed one of my Chinese geese trying to mate with a buff duck. Am I crazy? I don't want that big goose hurting that little duck.
I'm so stressed cause I know something is wrong and I don't know how to fix it. I know something is wrong with the wing but I don't know what to do. I have felt all over it for any signs of heat in it and there isn't. What do I do? How can they break them? Guess I'm crazy, but I'm also crazy in...
