co-parenting in the hen house
Comments (1)Isn't cool how that works out? I have two twin sister cochin bantam hens that do everything together, they are never more then 6 inches apart (they are about 7 years old) and eat together, dustbathe together, and brood together. They move like they have one brain, it's a little unsettling to watch. *L* A few years back we gave them some eggs which they sat, hatched and raised together with no problems whatsoever. I think if broodies get along well enough to brood side by side for 21 days, chances are they'll be good co-parents. How hens decide who their broody buddies are, who's OK and who isn't, is a mystery to me. I recently had one of my cochin hens in the house for a time to recover from a prolapsed vent, and the same time another hen was being housed in a large box as her eggs hatched. The chicks got to know the cochin hen, and both mama hen and chicks now look on the cochin hen as an 'aunt' of sorts--she is allowed around the chicks but mama won't tolerate any other chickens to be!

Comments (16)boycrzee, yes I have seen (or heard) about stairs that have drawers in them. I thought it was a good idea too. Just make sure no one leaves one open while walking down the stairs late one night-LOL! Well, I did get two of the four holes taken care of, in taking down the towel warmer. My DH put a towel bar that was just the right space apart. I still have the two upper ones to take care of. If you didn't know they were there, you probably would never notice it, but, I know, and my eyes fall right to those two holes in the wallpaper. And, really, since I got the sink grid for the farm sink, it really is so much better! Either that, or I am getting use to it. I do have to say, I like being able to fit big pans in it. brutuses, I was really trying not to sound like you offended me, but, I guess I couldn't get the right words out. I didn't take it that way. I bet we will be hearing some "Hallelujah's" when you move into your home. At least on yours, you've taken the time to really think things out. We had to rush through some things, but, did try to think of everything-which never happens!...See MoreGot plans - quotes from builders or mortgage co. now
Comments (3)k thx - i will check out some of those threads (if I can find them)--- since the restrictions have tighten up so much on the banks-- most of the banks i have talked to said they couldnt do BOTH the construction and perm loan --- most said they would have to "season" the loan in house for a year or and then go to the secondary market with it-- and most have said that the restrictions on the construction loan would be so tight that I could only make checks out to one person-- -the GC. i have a local bank lined out that will do the constr loan, and then will turn it over to the perm lender (which will be at a completely different bank). with this setup i can write checks to whomever i want... which is good and bad i guess. they only need the pre approval letter from the perm lender to let me start blowing money....See Morehow many roses you got coming spring 2020 ?
Comments (405)I have a dozen on order. Nine from Palatine as the multiflora rootstock loves my acidic clay soil. I just dug up a Tiffany on multiflora and rootstock was three inches in diameter! I moved it to the front yard about five feet from the sidewalk so everyone can smell it as they walk by my house. Three David Austins via the local rose society at just $20 each!...See MoreFla_Chic
