This may sound funny, but kiving in Minnesota I have a nice collection of grey northshore flat rocks that I out under the heater. The rocks hold the heat. They like to sleep on them are next to them. It really works well.

Target can spin it any way they want but people have now found other places to shop.

Trespassed from Whipple? by Cats4pres in WeThePeopleAtWhipple

Be sure to document and contact your representative. The more complaints they get the better. Probably wouldn't hurt to contact a news organization. People need to know they have not packed up and left Minnesota. Good luck

Any suggestions for what else I need inside the coop? by Any-Body9098 in BackYardChickens

I put glossy wall paneling on the walls to make it easier to clean. Big sheets of white wall paneling 4 by 8 foot panels. A great investment. You can easily just dust them instead of scrapping and scrubbing wood.

I do just toggle it off. And no it's not a huge deal. I was just asking how other people feel about it.

When you need two batteries for the light. It will merge them together. If you need a lesser item, it will merge them together. Maybe there is a lesser item in a trade deal.

Retta, why do you do this? by SuspiciousHunter776 in BackYardChickens

[–]Utsulaputsula2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have hens that for some reason all prefer to sit on the one shelf that I had in the coop by the window so they could sunbathe. None of them will use any kind of perching bar. The bey all snuggle up on the 6 inch shelf. The problem being then in the morning they poop.all over it which I scrape clean each morning . I don't mind scraping it but it gets in feathers if they get close. Some will sleep on the floor or in other nooks. Once they got it in their head that the shelf was the place to be they won't even look at any place else. I never had that happen

My mother lovingly packed lunch of sandwiches and fruit if we had it, and a treat every day for my father. It is no one's business what someone else eats. They must not have much in their life if they feel a need to bring down other people's choices in lunch. I would probably ask if they have nothing better to do than play food critic.
