So sorry about you loss. Similar incident happened to me last night, but it wasnt a dog. I lost a bunch of pullets last night ( about 630pm) to a raccoon. Broad daylight, and they were in their grow out pen. The raccoon just pulled them thru the wire. He grabbed an additional two when I ran back...

I just spit coffee on my keyboard. Thank you very much.
You may also want to review this thread. It will illustrate what to look out for when entering chicken areas.

It sounds like the humidity is too high. There is a salt test you can do to test your humidity thermometers. It depends where you live and what your humidity is like in the room your using to hatch in. I found that out by accident. Mine is around 40 to 50 percent during the winter and...
We have the metal T posts with three lines. I use it in the spring, summer, and fall if it isn't too cold out. I never understood why some places don't let folks have clothes lines. I'd be the first to rebel against that one. I've also seen a couple of magazine articles talking about "solar...
We just inherited our albino pleco Bob. I'm not sure if cory cat is similar to a pleco. He is about 7 years old. He used to share a tank with cichlids, but he out lived em all. He now shares a tank with some peaceful community fish.
Googled cory cat. I guess they are similar. It's been...
I lost my 24 year old cat over the summer, and late fall we took in two kittens from a nearby farm . I orginally only wanted one male kitten, but in the end we took in him and one of his sisters. I will have to say it was a good decision on our part. They were living in a chicken coop, and...
I've made my own curtains. I lined mine since I hate blinds. I didn't make a pocket on top for the curtain rod since I used ring clips instead. It was very easy to do, and the are some good videos on you tube if you need a visual.

My mother had a pet platypus as a kid. She lived in Morocco for many years from a very young child to an older teenager. She always talked about it. She said the normal pets that most people had in the states were actually very dangerous in Morocco. She said you had to be very careful of dogs...
I just lost my 24 year old cat over the summer, and we had another family cat ( she was with my brother ) who was 26. In fact, most of our cats lived into their 20's.
We fed purina cat chow or something similar all those years. They all went outside when they pleased, and never had any huge...
Hehe I was steeling myself to GO to the dentist. I had broken a molar on caramel covered peach pie. I'll never look at peach pie the same again.
I found a local place near the house who was hiring part time, and it has turned out to work very well for me. I usually close the store for the...
Thanks for the info. They did do xrays before I left. The dentist said my root was so long it took 3 xrays to make sure they got it all. They took one before I left as well to make sure there was nothing they were missing. I have had my jaw broken during a surgical procedure with my wisdom...

wow thank you everyone!!! I guess Ill have to take her to get fitted and she'll have to know her gift early if I can afford to get it all:-)
I think someone else mentioned you can do rentals before you invest in any gear. That's usually a good way to go with kids. Also, she will get...
