Jerry, a friend of mine has "Nekkid Neck" chickens. They look horrible, diseased, and turkey-like. However, they are very docile and hardy. Her...
Rosie likes to dust bathe in the afternoon, after a morning of chasing bugs and eating my flowers. [img] Nothin' like a nice bath ( photo /...
Jerry, You're in deep, deep trouble. Move south, change your name, and send a large check to the Home for Indigent Wooly Bears. I have to dodge...
Rick, as Hank said, the loopers will consume the broccoli plant, head and all, if allowed. They get into the head, eat away and riddle the...
Muddy, My Ohio gardener said to move the spirea in late winter. I think (and I'm surmising, since I wasn't smart enough to ask him) that is...
Oh, you poor dear! That was such an unfortunate thing to happen to you. I bet your husband felt as bad about it as you do, even though it was just...
