I'm sorry Jacin. :hugs Last week I lost my 11 yr old Buff Orp. Mama Bird was the last member of my very first group of birds. I hated loosing her. 😭 She was never sick, always a gentle soul and a great broody.

All the generic calcium tablets I purchased were crushable. Put them in a small zip lock bag and use the bottom of a drinking glass to crush or roll a rolling pin across them and add it to the wet mash. For my large fowl chickens, I give 1 tablet per day until I see improvement in shells...

Possibly. You can search your local Walmart stock online to see what they have on the shelf. I have never had to dose more than 2 birds at one time so always used the tablets. I think I saw a liquid version when shopping locally.

If you don't find the liquid version, I would think you could crush the tablet form and dissolve or sprinkle it in a mash too.

Can ducks take calcium tablets like chickens? I think I've seen a liquid version. You could mix some into wet mash if you have many who need it.

I'm very sorry. :hugs

I don't blame them. 🤭

Dang that is cold. I have never experienced those temps before. Stay warm!

Sometimes I think some sites/catalogs tweak the color a bit on blues. Not all. Don't let it scare you off. Sunlight intensifies color some too. I've had dark pink plumeria bloom light pink if the blooms formed early in less strong sun. Hibiscus, too.

:lau Forgot about those. I'll pass on smelling or growing them.

For me, orchids get an exception. I like all orchids no matter the color! I like some better than others but yep, I'll take any! I think these colors show off better in the landscape. White especially in the early morning or at night. White just glows right before sunset. Any flowers with...

I love blue flowers. You have to be careful ordering seeds or plants label as having blue flowers. Many are purple. I like purple flowers too just don't list them as blue and they are really purple! That's wrong and disappointing.

Just in case you mean veggies, you do need pollinators for them to fruit.

You won't need pollinators to make them grow only to make seed. Plant more brightly colored flowers you'll attract more pollinators. Ever grown zinnias? Butterflies and bees love them!

Oh I love annuals too! I used to start around 150 each year from seed. I just can't dig all those holes any more. Last year I only did around 50. Mostly vinca and marigolds. I always have marigolds and a few sunflowers in the veg garden. It was still a lot of digging and watering. Got to love it!

That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it! 😆

Me too! When they get old I use them for weed control or compost.

This sounds like you are describing me! I have an ever growing seed collection. Secretly....I am a seed hoarder. 😆 I save seed on certain things I love, flowers and veggies. Always scared I won't be able to buy them in the future. This also saves money on my seed orders.

I enjoy planning the garden and browsing catalog and seed sites. Trouble is I'll change my mind several times before planting time.

Sorry about Auntie. It always hurts to loose one. :hugs
