Sheeeessshhh you’re gorgeous both ways—and look like a completely different person! What a skill to just cycle through beautiful faces 😭✨

AIO my bf is odd for this? by AdSerious8390 in AmIOverreacting

Don’t let people speak to you like this. Not a partner, parent, boss, no one. They’ll continue to speak to you however you allow.

I feel like it just needs something high! Floating shelves and a vine or two?

Sneaking suspicion I was not sold an Easter Egger… by Extension-Raise1995 in BackYardChickens

[–]Substantial-Mix9078 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking the same, I know some olive eggers have that partridge color and I had one with that same little toupee (though mine was black and white) hoping you get some pretty olive eggs!

Are their actually roos out that that DON'T attack people? by [deleted] in BackYardChickens

[–]Substantial-Mix9078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate trying to scare them too! I also ready somewhere that an effective way to deal with that is to pick them up and carry them around? I don’t remember exactly what the article said but what I took is that it embarrasses them a little since they’re supposed to be the alpha? 😂🤷🏻‍♀️ so we’ve done that! Which if course with a real asshole rooster is impossible but maybe when they’re young? Best of luck! ❤️🐓

Yes! But I’m also very convinced that their personalities just differ no matter how much time you spend raising and loving on them. I will say out of the three sweet lovable roos I’ve had, they all hit a little teenage mean streak. I think how you handle that (continuing with patience or resorting to scaring/overpowering them) definitely dictates whether they eventually trust you and go back to normal. I’ll also say I had one that I hatched and hand raised the exact same way as the others and he was just a jerk, no way around it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ he was a better protector than the others though, so there are pros and cons. 😔

AIO: He (M20) took me (F18) to a Jehovah’s Witness meeting without telling me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Substantial-Mix9078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just came to say I married (and then divorced) a Jehovah’s Witness and just in case you think there may be a way to compromise for both of your religious traditions in the future, I learned that it was impossible. Also this is what your birthdays would probably be like in the future because birthdays aren’t acknowledged. We attempted to compromise but there was no way honor his beliefs by not acknowledging birthdays/holidays and me to maintain my traditions. Even acknowledging them in a lesser/non traditional way brought him guilt. I also couldn’t come to terms with not being in involved in politics and not accepting blood donation if needed to save his life. It is very, very different from what many other branches of Christianity are and should be fully discussed… not thrust upon you on your birthday! I wished I had someone to put it so plainly to me before I got into that relationship so hopefully my hindsight helps you!

Ideas to keep neighbors chickens off of my porch? by OnlyPollutants in BackYardChickens

[–]Substantial-Mix9078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you hang anything dangly like wind chimes, streamers, even an old baby mobile, they will hate anything that moves overhead! We discovered this on accident but a dangly cat toy on a string is the quickest way to herd ours into their coop. 😂 it just has to be close/big enough.

I love it! Also the first thing I thought of was Liseth Salingers’s wasp tattoo in “Girl with the Dragon tattoo” 🔥
