    All my chickens are gone

    Probably not for a year or so until we can get everything more secure for them. Need to build taller fence to run and redo one part of the coop. I really miss them but won't endanger them so I'm playing the waiting game with onlu Lulu to amuse me.

    Who are you, and what does that avatar really mean?

    Change of avatar. Decided to use a pic of Lulu, my lame house chicken/ travelling companion. Here she is perched on a roost that my DS made her in her corner of the kitchen.

    All my chickens are gone

    We still don't know for sure but are leaning toward dog. For the week or so after the attack, there were new tracks in the yard every morning and they had claws. From talking to the neighbours, etc someone is probably letting their dogs loose at night but I haven't seen them. I was gone for...

    Whoops I forgot the carrots!

    My mom and dad came to visit earlier this year and my dad although 80 thinks he is 25. He loved working in the yard - chipping food for the chickens and tilling. Oh man he loves tilling. Anyway, when he was here and tilled between my rows he actually tilled up most of my carrots. I really...

    All my chickens are gone

    Thanks for the support, it really means alot. It was back last night as there were more tracks out there today. Thank goodness the rest of the girls weren't here! From looking at the tracks, I tend to agree with a number of people who say it is canine. In the new tracks I can see the claw...

    All my chickens are gone

    I went out this morning to feed the girls and all I found was dead bodies all over the chicken run. I had 25 girls and all but 5 were gone. I have a four foot fence all around and nothing had dug under and all the gates were all shut. Something jumped over the fence. I took a photo of the...

    Need a BEST Way to Brace Raspberry Briars!

    My DH put up a post at each end of the row and then nailed crosspieces onto it. He then strung several strands of NON-barbed wire and the canes grow up between them.

    Canning Nightmare

    Mary, sounds like you are on your way! When I can I set up my own assembly line. I peel, core, etc and put the apples into a bowl of water with some lemon juice so they don't brown. When I'm ready to fill the jars, I do as you were thinking - line them all up fill, wipe and seal. You'll...
