Hey everyone - I'm selling my flock. Mom told me after I got off work yesterday that my favorite hen, one of my original 6, had died. I was devastated, and to make it worse, I had to watch her get ripped...
Hi! Welcome! If you think you're getting addicted now, just wait and see where you are in a few years. I started with 6 chickens...and today I just got rid of the last of my cockerels from the chicks I hatched out - don't remember how many there were, but I had set about 40 eggs in the...
Hi all!! Long time no talk!
Thought I'd jump back in with a chick pic and a dog pic... :) How have you all been doing?
Okay, heck, I just stumbled across this picture...May as well include it, too! This was 9 weeks ago.
Hey all. I had some really horrible luck with chickens and almost all of my babies died. I probably lost 10-15 or so babies over the last few months. TWO survived. The two that did survive are doing great.
I sent in two chicks for necropsy and the results were pretty inconclusive, but they did...
Thank you so much everyone. Thank you Neal.
The neighbors are working to fix the fence and paid 80% of the vet bill. Curly Sue survived the night and hopefully will regain the ability to walk.
Thought today would be better because Curly survived the night, but nope...girlfriend's dog was...
I am FURIOUS. I went outside before taking my new foster kitty to the vet because I needed to give my hens food and water. Saw more feathers than I've ever seen before, immediately started crying. Searched for survivors, found none. Kept searching, ended up finding the entire flock hiding behind...
Hi guys. Sorry I haven't been keeping up here lately....life has happened. You know how it goes. I've got a lot going on.
Necropsy for two chicks showed that they had cocci. Not a severe case, a mild to moderate case. There are two chicks remaining that are doing fine, but I am assuming they...
Hey guys. Since I forgot to close the coop door one night, one of my hens was taken by a raccoon. I'm asking for an automatic door for the coop/run for Christmas.
What are my options? We've already looked at the Pullet-Shut Automatic Chicken Door but want to know if there's any better priced...
Ugh. Didn't get to bed until 3am this morning, was too busy throwing up. I'm so hungry and want to eat plain spaghetti but don't want to upset my stomach. Ah, decisions decisions. Good thing I filled up the. Chickens food yesterday because I am not feeling well enough to go take care of them.
On...
Thank you Nikon! Yes, it's the Savage brand 10 foot wide rolled "Seamless Background Paper". I love it! I took this self portrait on it recently with my pup. Probably my favorite picture to date of my dog and I.
The darker the subject, the brighter white the background will appear. Example...
