Yup, still my favorite! I read it when it was first published as a child! I've always had a copy, and passed it on to my son, he's 26 now, and now on to my newest enthusiast, my 10 yr. old!

Hi Angie! Welcome! I'm new to this site also, but been on BYC for almost a year. (I have had chickens for over 12 years!) I have more to live on now than I have in the past, but nothing lasts forever, and times can take a turn for the worse without warning. I hope you find the support here that...

I'm sorry about the rats :( I hate wild rats! They're awful! Hope you take care of the problem! PS I have your package ready! I just gotta get to the P.O. now!! I'm awful!! Tina/tfpets

You already have such mouth watering ideas! Mine would just pollute them! Try those first, then on to another! Congratulations on a successful pot roast though! And they stretch into another meal so well! I've made open faced sandwiches with the meat n gravy and vege pot pies with rest...

Oh, no mistake, it's just what happens. I'm not the only one either. What bites is its a mandatory overtime shift, they can MAKE me do it!! And I can lose my job of 17 years if I refuse to do it again! I have to have a medical excuse if I cant get someone to cover the shifts for me (which is...

:clap :clap I'm almost afraid to share this one with Frankie! He'll laugh til he cries!! I love that!! Thanks for the chuckle! Tina/tfpets I quit fishing cause the area here is rice fields, agriculcure land surrounded by almond trees, fields and crops, and the fish we started...

We are on a large propane tank and cant convince the truck to come up more often than once every 6-8 months....he was up in June last , we were completely empty! The bill was $765.39, pay when they fill! We hadnt seen them until the night before Christmas, during a snowstorm, again, we were...

The main benefit besides recycling tires is the warmth they provide, so the down side I see of using feed bags is the loss of heat? Maybe you could combine the two, the feed bags may prevent some contact with the tires, thus decreasing the chemical leeching concerns (I am going to line or put...

Thank You! Yours is beautiful too! I could see the love you felt when you were reaching for your child - thats a moment captured forever, it was wonderfull! Tina/tfpets

Oh, I love the Tarantula! I used to have one like it when I was a kid, he was named Hercules, but my mom made me give it to my science class cause I let him out all the time, and he walked down the hallway walls. Freaked her out. I never let my Scorpion out though, she was too fragile. I...

Beeeeaaaauuuuutttifulll fluffy chickens! Made my day, and I wanna go home now! Such lovely birds you have! Tina/tfpets

Unnatural so maybe not welcome, sorry if so, and wont work if you like to live a chemical free lifestyle, but the best cure I have ever had for cracked heels, and I mean it works, is ~ Krazy Glue No, I'm not nuts - you fill it up, it may sting a bit at first - but it stops and the gap closes...

It's hard for me to single out a luxury purchase for my family any more, because we have gotten to the point, in my opinion, that we have started taking the simple things for granted in my family. I lived day to day for years, sometimes taking my son to a soup kitchen for a meal to keep him...

Wow, its so nice to see everyone! I dont have too many people pics on my Photobucket, it's kinda embarrassing. Tons of chicken photos though. I need to do something about that. Heres one of DH (Frankie) and I (Tina) And our 3 Adopted sons Charles - 17, James - 10 and Paul - 8 Tina/tfpets :P

I hope he has a good recovery, I am glad he is able to do okay without a lot of chemical support, that is very hard! He sounds very strong, but he should let the meds help him, too. Its what they're for! The body tries to fight back harder if you dont let the meds do their job. It works...

Thank you! I am soaking it all in! So much to absorb! Great to meet you! Tina/tfpets

Thank you for the welcome! I do have a little pygmy goat! She thinks she's too precious to eat the poison oak though. Prefers All Stock and Cob with Molasses. My bad for spoiling her. And I already love her, so it's too late. She lost a baby a few weeks ago, so we're just happy she's...

Hi, I live in California, in the Foothills above Chico. We have 3 acres of basically scrub brush, manzanita and poison oak! I've lived all over California in my life, including Humboldt County, traveling the Redwoods and the Avenue of the Giants all the time, and spent years living in Los...
