Does being almost a seven year member make me a "old BYCer"?

even though I just finally legally turned into a adult only two months ago :lol

Certainly older than most of us if we start counting "when I joined BYC" as our "birthday"

Welcome to the Old Folks Home. But I'm pretty sure there are some younger "old folks" than you here.

Your not the first, many people assume by my mature typing I'm a oldie by nature

but I actually joined the site at age 11 and stuck around since bwahaha. Just finally mellowing out though on settling out breeding projects. Of course having now 10 acres helps a lot too, and of course parents tolerating your addiction

Given I was just listening to On Point and they were discussing opiate and alcohol addiction, I think your parents are MORE than happy to support your agricultural addiction!

Wealth of info as always Ron. I'll look for it. The last time I bought Flonase at Costco I looked at both the adult (3 bottles) and child (2 bottles) packages. The ONLY difference was the number of bottles. Same ingredients, same dosage, same volume per bottle - SAME bottle ..... oh that and the child version was much cheaper per bottle. What kind of pricing is that???

I am both far sighted (in one eye) and near sighted (in the other). My mom was the same. Kept me from needing reading glasses for quite awhile. Then cataracts. Anyway I told the doctor I wanted to keep eyes as they were, ie., lens for near sight and other other lens for far vision except HE got goofed up and mixed the lens up. My far eye turned into a reading eye and the near eye into a far eye. After some 60 years of reading etc. with one eye and so on - he reversed them and it was miserable to get used to it.

Anyway the newly farsighted eye can see a penny across 4 lanes of traffic so that is a plus. But, nobody seems to have any coins to drop anymore.

Remember to look both ways first!

how in heavens name did you find this

someone in my backyardchickens FB group was showing off theirs so I went hunting!!! BTW it's actually not that tiny. It stands a full 22" tall so it's going to sit on my porch all winter (it's designed ot go outside) as a "night light". Walmart has it at least $10 cheaper than anyone else. It is part of an entire series of the usual Christmas critter decorations.

PS- if anyone wants to look it up just type Christmas Chick in the Walmart search line on their website.

This is what Costco has:

It is $27.99 online. You can have it shipped to your house if it is not in stock at your local warehouse store:

Miss Heny, does that mean you are our token youngster ?

. Don't know who to trust now, maybe we should ask for state ID's.

Gee when I see "Miss," I figure just another old maid like me. Sorry I misjudged you. You are very welcome here, you fit in so well with oldies, I never would have guessed.

You're such a diva.

You probably feel old compared to when you joined.

That stinks. I lost one to a coon this past summer. Your predator didn't even eat the head neck and crop? That is the usual MO for coons.
