If we lived in NH we'd have to buy 12 at a time, in ME it's 6. I hated this rule until I watched a group of teenagers try to buy 1 baby duck. Ahhh. <br /><br />My energetic pups are more interested in cornering and chasing and very possibly accidentally killing the chickens. The dog smell does protect them from coyotes but we also keep ours in a run, we don't have outdoor cats here (read: coyotes) so I don't know how that would play out but a rooster would probably be sufficient. They like to watch out for their harems.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05755057750711493539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21542058.post-68904143654117843242010-05-18T22:39:39.010-04:002010-05-18T22:39:39.010-04:00Even if I can't be trusted to drink enough wat...<i>Even if I can't be trusted to drink enough water I can be trusted to blow dry the rear ends of my baby chickens. </i><br /><br />Bloody hell, the things you read on the Internet ;)<br /><br />In my suburb there's an Urban Chicken movement afoot. (I still think that sounds like the name of a punk rock band.) <br /><br />Maybe I could get a few chicks and also a young energetic pup to guard them from the neighborhood cats. Not sure if that's a good idea or an awful one. I shall watch your chicken escapades closely.The Merryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09660495393832517684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21542058.post-20225736041905228682010-05-18T19:50:48.788-04:002010-05-18T19:50:48.788-04:00You could always jsut re-sign up to spark to get a...You could always jsut re-sign up to spark to get a fresh account, that way it's not thrown in your face. I use spark too and when it tells me I burned over a thousand calories cycling for an hour at the speed I'm at I get suspisious too. But then, I've heard frm a few places that 1 mile will burn 100 calories so it makes sense if I'm doing 18km (11 miles) that I would? I guess? Mapmyrun.com is good for checking distances out.<br /><br />The mental picture I have of a blow-dried chick is adoreable.The Fat Foreignerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07604719837186012000noreply@blogger.com
