that sounds yummy, and not a lot of food to make up for a lost paycheck. Why don't you just ask your dad what the "budget" is? prices change so quickly, who knows from day to day how far your money will go? I'm sure your dad understands that.

Gosh I hope our method works, if coons can get through a run with a chicken wire top, this may not be enough. I'll just have to make 100 percent sure every chicken is in the coop proper in there and locked up tight every night I guess. I would think if a coon made it inside, it would have a hard...

You raise several valid points, but our "run" is actually several dog kennels hooked together, and then the end is extended with some makeshift but unclimbable lower fencing too. So I do think an owl could fly in and out. That is why it is hard to cover, it is a large pen. A bobcat could...

The black Death......HAH! You know Kai wants to make him Prince Zander and get him tights and a gold crown so he can escort her when she wears the princess tiara and ball gown....they will make such a fashion statement. *hands puppy little crown to chew*

Well nothing was attacked overnight! whew! I've got a nice dinner planned for Hubby tonight, it is his birthday. I'm going to make Au Grautin potatoes from the garden potatoes, I have some of his favorite german sausage and some asparagus w/ hollandaise. We will top that off with strawberry...

Well Hubby and the boys got the chicken wire roof about 1/2 way done. I told them they are making an aviary. I'm pretty short so it made me fairly useless to help, plus I was feeling a little dizzy. Trouble caught the three chickens which had not been rounded up the night last night. Man, were...

To change the title of your journal, go to page 1 of the journal and click on edit on that first entry you made. Once you have done that, it gives you a box to change the title, just like when you first made your journal. By the way, it is a rule of the forum that journals must begin with your...

Look! they packed Pinkfox, too! *SD points at a box sitting on the porch, goes over and pulls off the tape to let her out! *

I'd love to hear what Sunsaver has to say on this......

My goal has been to scale back every fall, kind of clean house before I figure out who I need to over-winter. This year a predator made some decisions for me unfortunately. But maybe you just need a smaller group. Maybe get rid of some non-productive ones and instead get that roo you need and...

I enjoyed your photo collection!

I hope the work from home job works out. I worked from home about six years and loved it!

:hugs I'm familiar with tourrets, one of my long-time girlfriends has a brother with it and two of his sons developed the problem as well, so we all learned about it. I hope they can give you some guidance at the doctors and that the teacher can learn to understand how to help him. All children...

:yuckyuck and :yuckyuck

It doesn't get banged around or smashed that way? I'd hate for WZ to get crushed soap pieces, my soap has a cute shape. Has anyone received theirs yet shipped like that? Or mailed soap that way?

My mom recently made a book which is the story of her life, especially her young life. She included photos and had copies made for each of us kids. It will be a family treasure. She wrote up her story in narrative form, like a book and put it all in chronological order. I was thinking that I...

That is a good point, perhaps I have two predators, not just one. I do think an owl had to have done it to Unpretty. What got the one under the coop is still a mystery. But the cage on top of the pen fixes it either way because then I can contain all of them. My chickens have gotten to be bad...

*Hears gigantic thunderclap in the background as OFG finishes her comment on lying to MIL and missing church.....* :gig That cracks me up the puppy recognized the "milk source"........if you'da had a video of that you could have sent it to America's Funniest Videos, they lap up stuff like...

Do you think coons can climb chain link? The weird thing would be that they never did before. We have the standard dog kennel height fencing around most of it, but there is a low part that is about six feet. There is no place to grab a foothold there however, but coons are all around us, we see...

I was upset yesterday until we bought the means to put the top on the fencing. After that I felt better, like we have taken charge of fixing it. I hate to see animals suffer, and it was so obvious that Unpretty suffered, I think defending her "baby". I won't replace these chickens if we can't...
