    Shelley, You can always check with the local county extension agent, but basically in our area I believe it's 14 to 16 inches deep. Another thing to do is before you put the sand and liner into the hole, dust the sides with a good coating of lime to keep underground varmits from burrowing...

    It must be the season or our hens are using the computers when we aren't looking to talk to each other. I have a broody also. What breed is it that has the tufts by their ears? Anyway, that hen has gone broody on me and is sitting on about a dozen eggs. Has anybody had any luck in taking...

    Quote: I enjoyed meeting you. Sorry I didn't have more time. I enjoy clerking and then had birds to prep, so it makes for a hectic day. Glad you got a companion for the silkie. I ended up taking home the partridge cochin pair. (After vowing to cut back!) Yolonda I know what you mean, if I...

    Quote: Thanks!! My Buff and Blue came from Schweizer (I'm pretty sure, long blond hair?). She was very nice. My White one I got from a teenage girl, she had a bunch of them on the bottom. The older one was one of my many pity buys, cause no one was buying her When I got home I had to do some...

    Quote: Congrats! Who did you get yours from? I think the name of the lady I got my Partridge hen from was Schweizer. I almost bought some baby chicks too, but I don't have a brooder set up at this time. I wanted a white one but they all were cockerels.

    I've heard of White Kings before, and I have Homers, just lost two squabs, dead in the nest. Guess the parents got tired of feeding them because they both had empty crops. But I never heard of White King Homers. Those are some beautiful Koi you have pictured on your website, and the Bonsai...

    AM, check out the AT&T website for some jobs. I went online and filled out an application yesterday, and they already contacted me to schedule testing. You will have to scroll through some of their state listings to find the ones for Kentucky.

    Quote: Yeah! I'm a chicken grandpa! There are times when I miss my silkies, but I know they are in a good home. Also the two whites are probably from the white pullet. Silkies will brood just about anything, and my girls were notorious for everybody laying there eggs in one nest.
