Hi all, I know this is a common question, but I've spent a fair amount of time using the search function and cannot find the answer I'm looking for. Sarges outdoor thermostat died and I want to replace it with a really good one. One that will have an app function with alarms if somethings...

Hey all, With Sarge being outside year round now I'm looking at different grass seed mixes. He's always going to be supplemented with hay, Mazuri, veggies all that good stuff. So I'm not overly concerned about nutrient breakdowns in the various mixes. What I'm wondering about is what mix would...

Oh that’s just tragic [emoji20] I’m so glad they are doing better.

Great tip, Is this something that they grow out of?

She’s sleeping with a leg out It’s just dark brown, but no spurs..

There’s 2-3” all around. I appreciate the reassurance!

Oil heater in an wooden box, ala Toms night box plan. Door will be open at all times so Sarge can come and go as he pleases.

Sarge spent the night with his heater on last night. I’ve been tweaking things here and there, getting it just right. He’s all warm and cozy as I post this morning. I didn’t sleep well at all though! We are in Southern Oregon, our area seems to be spontaneously combusting on a daily basis, I’m...
