Food fraud!
I'm a little late coming to this discussion but I either saw an act of trickery at one of the large food chains or some form of a farming miracle. I was buying tomatoes and I usually try to get grown in Canada tomatoes. I saw some grown in Ontario, as I was picking them I found it odd that they were...

playing with feather colours
Lol @ silkie Sue, you are giving me an excuse to hatch, I like that way of thinking. All white or all black would be fine, to make it even more complicated, usually when my chicks come out mottled, the males are also burchen. I just remembered that I got mottled hens out of white hens bred to mottle...

playing with feather colours
For the people who are into playing with feather colours here is a question. I have a Cochin bantam hen, she is mottled-ish she is not a true mottled, her parents were sort of but her family is actually blue Cochins and this comes out every now and again. Any idea what will happen if she is bred to ...

Battle of the sexes
Lol, all was well by evening, the little EE hens were following him around. The barred was doing her own thing and would just walk past him, which was a huge improvement from earlier with her running after him screaming "die intruder die"! I have seen this before with a rooster not fully sexually ma...

Battle of the sexes
This morning I placed my young ee bantam rooster in with my little hens, he is a good size so not a wimp. The hens have been without a rooster for two weeks. In the pen is a two year old mixed barred rock hen, she has buff Brahma bantam in her so not huge but is solid like a little bowling ball with...

April 2: Saint-Pascal-Baylon, ON K0A 3N0
I went yesterday, it was my first time going. It was small auction as it's a new club. I enjoyed it, very well run. French Canadians would feel at home with this club but there was a lot of english spoken as well so no problem understanding what is going on. Prices were really good for sellers, bred...

Juno Awards - Burton Cummings
Well that's typically Canadian, he should have been in long ago, it's almost embarrassing that he isn't. He is one of the ground breaking musicians for our pop/rock scene. I just wanted to add that he was waaaaaay before my time. Lol.

Alfred ON bird auction near Quebec border
Wow! What a sale! I never saw it that big before O_O they had to ask people to wait until there was room to bring stuff in. I don't know what is going on but that seems to be the theme this year. There was over seventy lots, I left after six and they still had about 15 or more lots to go. Prices wer...
