I moved the house chat off of bob’s thread to a conversation of interested parties to avoid the chicken tax photos and boring everyone half to death! 😂 Currently working on the roof, and got a pneumatic nail gun for a belated b’day gift after I counted how many nails would be needed for the...

I’m 40 years old now, and aside for about one year that my mom cat sat for me, while I was trying to find a feline friendly rental in one of the worst rental markets of the county (I think we were neck and neck with Toronto at the time) and since December 2021have been the only times in my life...

I’m not ready to get another cat again… so I will just enjoy everyone else’s lovely feeling posts for now, and the scaly cats too! Thanks everyone for sharing. Does this mean I might start managing to keep up with more than just FBAcres? I hope so.

For a minute there I didn’t realize you were talking books and was completely horrified! We also were culling books for space… mostly duplicate sci-fi and fantasy paperbacks. Three gainfully employed book addicts with similar reading tastes living together for a decade, plus my mothers...

That’s Vancouver weather! Lol. It might not be a bad investment in a cheap hair dryer even if it’s just for the chooks. 😆 I got my hairdry back when I was 12, and I still have it! Hasn’t seen much use in the last 25 years or so, but boy am I glad I kept it!

I should probably spoiler this... but it is true for humans as well. My Ex dropped a very large spool of rope (600 lbs ish) on his big toe at work. The nail ended up deeply embedded in his toe and it got really infected. He was on an absolutely Massive doseage of antibiotics to clear it up.

Speaking of culling... I am so angry right now. I mentioned over on Bob’s thread that another Farmer here believes he has Mareks and was going to cull his entire flock of over 100 birds. Including not even 1 year old birds. Also because he has some egg eaters, and ones that refuse to roost in...

Thanks! She’s now 95% housebroken, no bedtime accidents, and if I’m paying enough attention to her during the day, outside pees! She’s well behaved at night, a little too bouncy in the mornings, and we are working on leash/harness training as well. She needs a shed and some friends so she can...

Personally, I’m still not completely ruling out the Murder in the main house as a viable solution... I mean, ummm, option? potential “tragedy”? Just please... no sheep! I think we’ve both been quite clear on how we feel about those nasty things! Arduinna waiting for me to come to bed, she’s...

“Long winded” is the most often used phrase around here! But I’ll happily take rambler

Well this is certainly some light reading! Lol

Red, purple, and teal are all favorite colors of mine, but I like black or Blue ink for the body of a text, and corrections in red. And just think if you were already upset by a mistake you made and someone decided to comment about what you did wrong thinking it was one thing when it was...

It reminds me of what I was seeing in poops at the tail end of treating for coccidiosis. I was brooding in the Common garage like building and picked up some new chicks from my breeder after my dismal First hatching attempt, 48 eggs set and 14 chicks, half boys... wasn’t a stellar start to my...

I’m fairly certain it’s intestinal shed, and related to the potential coccidiosis issues, but this has probably already been mentioned. If not, treat with Amprolium ASAP

I’m really late here, I know... but I got teal* on my phone, which is a blue/green. I Agree that red in comments looks angry, but in a markup/editing situation agree it can’t be beat for contrast. It reminds me of my very first post when my first hatch went awry, I had screwed some stuff up, and...

So maybe we are closer to neighbors than I thought? LOL, you’re going to have to let me know where in BC own... that fish mix air drop is looking more and more promising! ;)

Bob what’s your thoughts on my Little Red? He came in a batch is Sasso Meat Hybrids, which includes some NHR or RIR in the lines, but was nothing like the others in the batch of Chicks. He was different even as a day old in colour and pattern. I wish I had taken more pictures of them as chicks...

“My pet makes me what??? Hold on there, exactly what do you do with our babies again?” She really look like she’s reading the cover!

oh my... I missed reading the part about the injured vorwerk. That is not good. And a trip into the vet in the heat of summer :( Maybe I’m not up to keeping up on more than one busy thread again yet... Sorry I missed this @Ribh :hugs

Hmmm, how about a “bad rooster box” a DIY crate? Leftover hardware cloth or chicken wire and some scrap lumber?
