    I would guess it depends on which part and what is going on in the area. The area we are moving to is west side cincinnati. Green township. There are alot of jobs but the pay is what i'm worried about. Where we are moving we are about 20 min from downtown cincinnati and about 35 min from hebron...

    I know this a day or so old but looking at the pics the bottom one looks like there is no snow drift along the fence so I'm guessing the wind is coming from the other side of the fence. There maybe less draft there and on top of that it is a small area so they can heat it easier than the tall...

    The dog gets loose and attacks a kid if it has its tag they now know who's dog it is. Or if they find a dog with tag and rabies they know where about it came from and can try to see if there is an out break there. Now my wife handles our dogs with the town hall so I don't know what all is on the...

    That's the one I called the dinosaur. It was labeled as bantam silkie. But it has a single comb and if I remember correctly few or no leg leg/feet feathers. And the thing was huge it was bigger than my red sex links I have here at home. It was ether a TSC silkie or someone is trying to breed...

    The barred sizzle seems to be doing ok. I put vet rx on comb/wattles/nose/wings. Hopeing it would help clear his airway if he had any water in there. He's moving and eating now in my wooden brooder. I think he will be fine but I'm going to keep him in another day or two to make sure he's 100%.

    Thanks. Just a heads up. Show chicks along with your kid and have them enter into the open class with the fair. We knew nothing about showing and 4-h didnt explain much it seemed. But my daughters teacher for next year explained stuff to me. She has people who cant watch their birds so she takes...
