Its not the same on here without Haystack
So sorry to hear of your son's health challenge. God is able to do so much more than we can think or hope!!! Will be praying for healing, strength, power, peace and comfort for all of you guys.
That roo is a game cross.
This dark pullet is an EE cross.
I'm so sorry to hear that. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers!!
Can't thank all of you enough for your loving comments and prayers. My wife stayed with him for three days in the hospital, she came home finally last night. We prayed together and then agreed it was time to exercise our trust in the Lord. She is doing well this morning and we talked with our son and he is very upbeat. In fact the doctor told him he would be released two days early as he was doing so well. The pathologist will be giving us an update on all his tests probably by wednesday. Thanks to all of you once again. Having family like you is unmatched...Hay
Our prayers to you Mr Haystack and your Family.
I'm glad to hear the news is good. Keep us posted.
Haystack, one of Haystack's Daughters started laying Green eggs, and the other lays blue, and one still has not started.... I wrote this in another thread, but I wanted to make sure you saw that. Grey is my favorite, she is a good girl, I will get pictures of her tomorrow..... WHOO OHOOOO
How much fun is it to have the blue, green, browns, and whites all in one carton. I know my customers used to just love it. It's been just to wet here for pic's but I am hoping the weather will break soon. I have some new seramas I have just added and I also have some new colors that have just popped up out of nowhere that I want to share with all of you... It has been my goal to get my breeding stock up to at least six roosters and five hens per rooster, for a total amount of thirty six birds just for breeding. I have finally reached that goal, come spring I will be purchasing a cabinet incubator and hope to be able to hatch at least a hundred eggs per month. I have three local pet stores that have agreed to purchase birds from me for one three month period in the spring to see how well they sell. It should be a fun trial period. I also took a pair of birds to my local feed store, they said they did not know what seramas were. It was so much fun, as they were all in shock. I thought at first they were kidding me. The one lady in her sixties told me she'd been in the business over forty year and had never seen one. It was so much fun watching the people just staring as I walked around introducing my favorite, Dot and Murph...Hay.
Haystack how wonderful! I hope your new venture goes well! Yes I am still amazed at the amount of people that never dreamed of owning pet Chickens let alone a tiny Sweetheart like our Seramas. People just cant resist one once introduced!
I only have three roos now and 3 hens and two tiny White Pullets coming along for spring! I cant wait for them to start laying again. I wish we were closer so I could buy some of your eggs!
Well I never thouygh of chickens as possible pets until I started hanging out here. Yes, I have always wanted some but thought of them like farm animals, never pets before this. Needless to say my thinking has changed.
Ahhhhh, we are a Forum of Enlightenment!!!!
Well, you changed my life for the better. I adore my chickens and feel more empowered that if something happens to the food supply, I would still have eggs, and maybe chicken.
Our farm animals are all pets too: chickens, cows, pigs...I'm hopeless.
Chickens can and do make the most amazing pets.
Hay, my hopes and prayers are with your family and your son. A good attitude is often key, and it sounds like he has one.
Thank you so much Elle, he does have a good attitute, no pitty party here...LOL. Seriously I agree with you, a positive attitude is key in our health and environmental atmosphere. Thats one of the gifts I think we all take away from this forum. You guy's rock and surely lift my head...Hay
Dear Mr Haystack,
My nanny showed me a picture of you on the grass. I asked her why you were on the grass and she said cause you can you have grass. I love you and I am going to be batman for halloween with the belt and the mask and the cape. My nanny said she will send you pictures cuase she has to send you pictures next monday when she gets to work. Then you can see what I look like. I am going trick or treating so others can eat with the 4H. We get canned food to give to people that dont have any. People sometime give me candy, I will share my candy too. Hugg Hugg Mr Haystack
Your Friend
Billy Bob
Awwww... what a sweet kid and good citizen. Good job Miss J.
My grandson saw your game hens and rooster and said, "THOSE ARE MINE". lol
We are all very blessed just to have people that need us or care about us.
Hope all is going well for you there Haystack. May your son recover quickly. GBU and yours.
Karen
Hey there my dear friend Billy Bob, I'm glad your going trick-n-treating. I hope you get lots of goodies, just be sure and brush those beautiful teeth afterwards...Batman huh, I think thats a good thing to be. If I remember right Batman and Robin saved a lot of good people and destroyed the evil one's. I really like that idea Billy. I know you like doing good things for people and thats why I love you so much. I also know you take good care of Nanny, and do all your chores. I'm very proud of you Billy and I am so lucky to have a friend like you. Soon I'll be sending something for you and Nanny. I can't tell you now cause I want it to be a surprise. Take good care of all the farm animals hug nanny be sure to say your prayers at night...I want you to know the Lord is watching over you cause he loves you also...Your Friend, Haystack
Thank you LFJ, it's such a great privlege for my wife and I to have all the great friends and Family of the garden...Hay
Hay you and Billys letters brought tears to my eyes
Mr Haystack, hope all is well with you, Billy is home from his momma's he was suppose to stay all week while I was hunting, but something was not right when I spoke with him on Monday night, so yesterday I surprised him at school with the intent to take him to lunch only and he was so happy to see me. He asked me to take him back to the ranch, he "Did not want to be a city boy anymore, he was a country boy" who could argue? Later his mother called and said she was sick, so the decision has been make to forgo hunting till Saturday and keep him with me. Friday night he will go to his Uncle and Auntie's to go to a halloween party on Saturday. When he got home, he walked around and told everyone he was back. He went today to get our new horse Rosie and when he met her for the first time, she nuzzled his hand and he turned to me and said he loves her. He was such a gentleman to the people that came to drop her off, and they left with 3 doz eggs,Billy showed all his animals, and figured he would share some eggs. Wiped me out of eggs, but made him smile so small price to pay.
Pork I am trying to bring him up in the world to pay it forward it is just a small gesture but it is at least something. He had a blast last year (His First) and a tradition I hope he will carry on.
Donna, Billy loves Mr Haystack and loves to dictate notes to him on the computer. He puts his fingers on mine and taps, I think he thinks he is typing. He can spell Haystack, Nanny and Billy Bob...LOL I see fights for the computer when he gets older...
How wonderful that Billy can tell you when he needs to be with you instead of at his mom's. It sounds like you were in tune with his situation.You are both very lucky to have each other. I hope he has a wonderful time trick-r-treating with his aunt and uncle, and that you have a very successful hunt!
Haystack, I know this is a forum for wishing you back....and Our wishes came true, youare here! ...but I had to add , thanks to this forum I have met Billy Bob and his Granny!
Each day I marvel at the sweet people here , and there concern for family and friends... not to mention the warmth and friendship for people we've never actually met! I have learned and grown by being here and I intend to stay here with "My Peeps"!
So to you Little Mr. Billy Bob... thank You for being such a wonderful , bright and Generous Young Man! You are ceratainly one of my favorite "Peeps"!! Peep Peep!!
Thoughts and prayers coming your way for you and yours dear Hay. ps methinks that lawn needs some dahlias.
Dahlianut {{{HUGS}}}}} oh and most defiantly the lawn does need some dahlias..
Billy and Mr Haystack have a special bond one of which I am glad of..I try and update Mr Haystack on here about him since I truly suck at writing and sending it pony mail.
Billy loves to sit and watch me type and I think that helps with him to read. I read to him from here, and show him pictures, lol...
I hope that Billy grows up to be half the man Mr Haystack is... I will be the lucky one...
Yes Eufaula I also know it's a forum for poultry and livestock, I just thought WE were le livestock...LOL!!!
Dahlianut, your so right we really could use some dahlia's, Come on over, we'd love to plant you right here...and thank you for your warm an welcome thoughts.
Miss Jester never fear about Billy, he will be his own wonderful man, I maintain what your doing with him will form him into a young man that will continue to make you and all of us very proud. No, that cowboy will just never be at home in the city...he is country thru and thru...Just look at the way he sits on that fence, and straddles that horse. A true cowboy in the making I'd say. Hunting huh, just what is it were after Miss Jester???Inquiring minds really need to know...LOL. Hay P.S. Miss Jester look at Billy Bob posing on my new thread. He is gorgeous...
Truly gladly on the dahlias Hay. We shall go visit Pooch in Issaquah who always has kazilliions of extra dahlia tubers. I just got back from visiting EMoo in White Rock. Did you see me waving at you from tother side of the border?
Any news on your son Hay?
Wonderful pictures and Billy did leave you another note...
At the risk of making a few people upset, first off let me say I am hunting to put meat in the freezer for this winter not just the kill.
I was drawn this year for Muzzle Loader Antler Deer. Went out 4 days and did not see any bucks at all... I will go back this weekend, it is the end of the hunt season for me..
I am here, sorry I was not here to welcome you back Mr Hay. Praying for your son.
I am having trouble keeping up with everyone
Miss J Tell Billy that I wish he could go to the pool that my DM and I am going to. We never know who or what we are going to share the pool with. Last week it was 2 Skin Divers, today it was a group of young men learning how to survive if the ship they where on sink. Had a huge live raft.
Hey Miss Wren..... I am sure he would love to, he does love the water...Aww heck I would like to too... My new Horse Smart Smoky Rose AKA Rosie is posted over on the horse forum... LOL I guess I could have glues some feathers on her and called her a BIG chicken.. LOL
I will have to go look.
Did see some pictures of her on FB.
Sandy
