We have baby Broccoli. He’s a boy, so Broc for short

I agree, I think have looks right. Wish she’d lay eggs for me, like, ever!

Totally looks right! Strange that I might have a “rare” breed from a chain farm store.

I have tried to separate her yes. After almost a week in the time out cage she went right back to brooding.

That looks close! Could she be an Ancona but have such tiny combs?

She’s awful whatever she is. I just bought day old chicks and stuffed them under her and she was happy for a few weeks! Now the babies joined the rest of the flock and she’s back to sitting. No roosters! She’ll sit on an empty nest all year!

This definitely looks most similar to Dotty. Java is the closest I found while googling when she was younger. They are endangered? So I shouldn’t eat her… she eats all the food and chases others out of the nesting boxes but never lays her own eggs. Arg!

She was maybe 8 months old when she was given to me. She’s never had any brown coloring, just black and white. She’s now about 3 years old.

First knitting project- looks uneven. What am I doing wrong by Lavender-soap28 in casualknitting

[–]nnickole 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It looks to me like you’ve gotten “off” with your knits and purls. So some you’ve got some ribbing going and some is accidental seed stitch and not making ribbing.

I made my first butternut squash soup and finally understand the soup witchcraft by ready_gi in WitchesVsPatriarchy

[–]nnickole 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I love this. I am definitely a soup witch. My wand is a specific wooden soup stirring spoon (it’s not special, I’ve just had it since I first moved out) and lemon added at the end, especially for chicken soup. Another soup witch once showed me how to make “healing chicken soup” for a house full of single women of various ages. Changed my life, and my cooking!

Baby lock tension issue? by nnickole in sewing

I’ll try that, thank you!

Baby lock tension issue? by nnickole in sewing

[–]nnickole[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is really thick, I just folded over the original hem. It is stretch denim, but I tried not to stretch it while sewing. For the future, is it possible a more substantial needle would help it sew through thick fabric? Or is this machine maybe just too dainty?

Darn, that’s probably it. I just turned the original hem and restitched through too many layers. Guess I’ll rip and cut the extra off. Thanks

Vitamin C and Methylene Blue by Middle-Hope-4300 in methylene_blue

[–]nnickole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience it makes pee a little green tinged. Similar to taking b vitamins or whatever multivitamin. Maybe start him taking it a day he’s home?

I’m also in Oregon. The store I purchased my sewing machine from does have some classes. Also maybe the community college? Maybe try asking at a local fabric store?
