    Help me fix my computer screen

    I feel stupid for asking, but I was holding my baby on my lap and he hit some button on the keyboard that made the type on the computer screen super tiny. I don't know how to fix it. Anyone know what I need to do?

    Roll-out nest boxes my DH made me! (pic heavy)

    I updated my coop page with my new nest boxes, too. Since I'm very pregnant with our 4th baby, I wanted to make my chicken chores easier. DH isn't a chicken person and he hates taking care of the chickens for me (on the very rare occasions I needed him to) because he hates that he has to go...

    Sexing my Showgirls - need some help here!

    I usually sex Silkies primarily based on the crests, but my daughter's Showgirls have me stumped. They're 4.5 months old now. They're pet quality, so all their crests look like slicked-back roo-ish crests to me. The red SG has shiny feathers, small streamers and the most obvious comb/wattles...

    Showgirls hatching eggs - any color/type/quality

    I'm hoping to set eggs on the 24th and I'd like some Showgirls because my daughter LOVES them. I don't care what color they are or if they come from pet quality or show quality stock. I'd even consider mixed-bred or a mixed breeding pen, if that's all that's available. Send me a PM and let me...

    Lava lamps - are they safe? Need some advice...

    My 7yo son would like a Lava Lamp for Christmas; he loves the way they move. I was all for it, but my husband says they aren't safe. I googled lava lamp safety and I heard about a story of a person dying because he tried to heat his lava lamp on the stove and it exploded. Mythbusters even...

    My awesome spice rack

    My Dad made this for me and I love it! He's not an overly affectionate man, but he wrote To: Karen Love, Dad on the back. When my parents moved, they moved to a smaller house and Mom had a hard time fitting all her kitchen stuff into the smaller kitchen, so my Dad made her a spice rack. He...

    My flock tested positive for MG and I have chosen to cull my entire flock. (I started a post with all the details in the Emergencies/Diseases section.) I filled up my own bator and was hoping someone local might be willing to lend me an incubator to help me rebuild. I would take very good...

    My experience dealing with MG (Mycoplasma gallispectum)

    One evening my Barred Rock hen, who I've had for well over a year, bumped into the back of my legs when I was feeding the rabbits. I looked at her and she looked a little funny. I picked her up and noticed her face was swollen and her eyes were watery and bubbly – I think she bumped into me...

    Tale of the Traveling Bobwhite chick

    I bought a dozen Northern Bobwhite day-old chicks from a local lady. I kept them in the house for about a week, but they stink too much, so I banished them to the barn with a heat lamp. I put them in a rabbit cage, taking care to cover the sides completely with cardboard to block drafts and...
