About a month ago I got a pair of female rats from the local human society. They're so freggin' cute! They are white with buff caps and are named Pumpkin and Poppy.
Currently I'm saving up to get them a four level cage I saw on Petco.com but you know. It takes some time.
Our rooster, Fluffy is acting real weird and lethargic. I went out side to give them some food and he was standing at the door of the coop with his feathers all fluffed out like he was could and his head was kind of hanging. So I picked him up and brought him inside to try an warm him up but...
Its been a long while since I've been on here and I'm not sure if my chicken buddies even get on here much anymore either. Anyway, may I begin with wow. The site itself has changed A LOT since I was here last. Next, I've become a super Brony here lately. My Little Pony for life. Dawg. Lastly...
Could we put Cyprus Mulch in the chicken run? We just refenced it and were trying to think of something to help keep it clean and to help with the smell
Okay, so prom is in a month, and I still have to get a dress. I am REALLY pale skinned and I have REALLY really light blonde hair. I have no idea what colors would look good on me. I know black would. But not for prom. I like the oranges and pinks but I really don't feel like dealing with...

SPLAPLOP followed by "reeee!!! reeee!!!"

Our female German Shepherd is due the 9th with her first batch of puppies, but it looks like the pups have dropped, shes real clingy and shes been nesting. since this is her first, would she go into labor early or later?
A few weeks ago it snowed and got really cold. We have 5 month old pullets, and the one that has feathered feet (cochin/RIR/New Hampshire Red mix) has gotten cold, simi frozen feet. We've been taking her outside during the day, and in by night; her feet just don't seem to be getting any better...
Our golden comet hen seems to be a favorite among the roos..they all jump on her, no one else, just her. they've ripped all her feathers off, and they even torn up 2 hen aprons now she has two quarter sized infection looking spots on her side...and I'm so worried. Here lately i've been busy...
Many middle class families have been struck down by job loss here in America. Many jobs have been eliminated or outsourced. Unemployment benefits are a LIFELINE to those families struggling to keep a roof over their families heads and food on the table. If congress does not act to restore these...
