    Chicken update and a couple of questions

    What breed are Pacey & Joey? They're pretty. I'm so glad that my rooster is a sweetheart. Though, if he wasn't, he'd be either at someone else's house or some delicious soup .... My pullet just started laying this week, she's around 7 months old. She's a Partridge Chantecler though, a winter...

    Libraries, bookshelves, rooms with books...

    Going through the photos on the first link, you can certainly tell those who are the true book lovers, and those who just like the aesthetics of books on bookshelves. Also, this is a serious time suck. ;-)

    Libraries, bookshelves, rooms with books...

    That room with the ladder - if my horses and chickens were outside that window it would be my perfect spot!

    Book sharing

    I am more likely to buy someone their own copy of my favorite books than I am to lend out my copy.

    How Do You Pasture Your Stallions

    We found that our mares would foal healthy, normal, "term" foals anywhere from 305 to 365 days, which meant that knowing exact breeding dates wasn't really narrowing it down a lot. We go primarily by udder development, and while they fool us from time to time - mares are tricky! - we don't miss...

    How Do You Pasture Your Stallions

    In the summer, they're pastured with their mares. In the winter, the old boy is in a pen, because he has no teeth left and has to eat mush, but he's next door to the mares for company. The youngster is turned out with the geldings, learning to be a real horse. ;-)

    Who have you bred (or not bred) for 2013?

    We've down sized a lot over the past 2 years, and now only have 3 broodmares. Expecting 2 foals (I hope, fingers crossed!) due mid-April and mid-May. Both mares are bred to North Stars Valdez Y Basan, pictured in July at 23 years old: Rocky Mountains Ruble - Ruble is a new addition. I've...

    Is your driving limited with the cold weather?

    I don't drive in the winter. My best driving horse came up lame one March and never truly recovered (he is driving again after 6 years off), and the vet figured he'd slipped on ice and hurt his SI joint - and he was just out on pasture. I couldn't live with myself if one of my horses was hurt...

    IF You Could Pick a Different FIRST Name, Would You? (POLL)

    I like my name. It's unique enough that I almost never run into another one, but it's easy to spell and pronounce.

    Training suggestions plllease

    If he's only sluggish at a show, it might not hurt to rule out ulcers as well. I suspect though, he thinks it's a waste of effort to drive round and round - perhaps some over the top praise for any sign of impulsion? Try to convince him it is FUN and he wrong about the boring bit. ;-)

    Favorite time/place to read?

    I read in bed every night. Sometimes, way too much of the night!

    Reading companions

    This is Timmy. He does not allow the other dog or the cat to sit on me. He's bossy like that.

    Fictional Characters

    I really enjoy writing. I started writing fiction 4 years ago, when I was recovering from surgery and bored out my tree, and I've never stopped. Have you tried Nanowrimo? It's lots of fun, this is my third year participating. http://www.nanowrimo.org

    Fictional Characters

    I know lots of writers who also choose an actor as a placeholder for their main characters. I don't use actors as reader or as a writer. Though I do always have a very clear picture of characters in my head, they're not someone else, they are that character. There is one book I like, despite...

    Twilight fans

    I only saw the first movie, and that was ages ago - while I certainly didn't think it was a stellar performance, I do think that Kristen Stewart was quite true to the character in the book. Oh wait, I did see the second movie too! In the theater yet. I couldn't stop giggling during the bad...

    What are your favorite book stores?

    Powell`s sounds amazing Susanne! There are a few used book stores that I love to shop at - and try to resist whenever possible as I have absolutely no self control in a used book store.My friend always says, "Let's go to Fair's Fair, I'll hold your wallet!" None of them have a coffee shop...

    How many book do you have?

    I choose not to answer on the grounds that I may incriminate myself. Also, I'm far too lazy to count. ;-) I have too many books, and yet I think I would only be willing to part with about 10% of them. I really do need to take a load to the used book store though - that's a win-win: more room...
