There was a face book post by a fellow breeder about tradition products. In the past year I've noted : A decrease in kits being born. This COULD be due to the fact that my animals are getting older, and they are slowing down. I've also seen an INCREASE in still-born kits. Apparently tradition...

I haven't been around as often as I should. I have a lot going on with a wedding i'm in just around the corner, and I started fostering for a local Pit Bull rescue, not to mention all the critters on the farm! This is Grace. I found her listed on facebook under the "urgent" lists for dogs that...

Have we decided on ash wood yet? I am seeing it listed on many sites as safe, and a few sites as unknown. A forum search showed a few people would use it. We have a healthy, untreated ash tree that we pruned along with pear and apple trees. I'm processing the apple and pear now and am unsure...

First of all, those who have known me awhile know I do NOT like cats..Almost as much as Peggy does not like cats... There are only a few cats I do like(ex: Misty whom Mish fostered/raised---although she HATES me and won't come near me!) Well, this little guy has managed to crawl his way into...

This is our 150gallon semi-planted freshwater tank. It does have sand in it. First picture is of the tank itself. 2nd is of my personal favorite fish, a Black Ghost Knife. He is pretty neat, and should eventually get tame enough to hand feed. They are supposed to be on the harder side to...

Here is "Misty" AKA Lindsey for those of you that remember her from Mish's cam she had up last year! Not a good picture but it shows her tude! Humans are there to serve her. She positively hates me, and will not come near me unless she is sleeping. Although, she has fallen in love with my...

On the farm we have two barn cats for rat/mice control; Gizmo and Xena both strays (out of many) that showed up on the farm. You'd think the chickens would be afraid of the cat... In the morning you'll find at least one (or more) chickens and the two cats waiting on the porch for breakfast...

Not sure if anyone saw this..I stumbled across it today. It was published last year. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38674680/ns/technology_and_science-science/

Caught him Displaying.. Picture is taken with my crappy camera phone

These are some of the kits from 2010 that I've decided to hold back: Pink White Female- I just LOVE her markings. I love her eye brows, and she is very nicely beige tipped all over. Mom is a Pink White, Dad a standard. Brown Velvet Female-- I am hoping she'll turn out as nice as mom. Mom is a...

I was a pain in the butt as I was picky as to what I wanted..but mae did an amazing job!! and it came out exactly as I wanted. This is the finished picture she sent me. I can't wait to get it home!

Just purchased 3 bags of taste of the wild for $30 each..can't beat that price anywhere! WITH free shipping over $35. They are on sale for $37ish. I left the page WITHOUT putting anything in the cart and got a pop up notice telling me they'll take 20% off my order. Brought my food down to just...

We finally had A babies! Born 2 days ago, I did take pictures last night and will post as soon as I get home. We have a violet male, and violet female :).

I figured I never post pictures... I have a new lap top that works (yay!) and figured I might as well get snapping. First picture is of my ebony twins, they are possibly TOV. Mom is a dark ebony from White Woods, dad a black velvet from White Woods. 2nd picture is a Pink White kit. Mom is a...

Just for you--I know you love these guys. First "no-name", he and his 4 ladies still need names. He is a Midnight Blackshoulder as are his females. Thinking about a Space theme for him. Behind him to the left is Jade my Blue Pied female, and to the right is Erohs my Blue Pied Male(jades mate)...

Situation arose recently. Here in PA we were able to get a mill to bring in Tradition chinchilla pellets from the ohio plant. Other sources charge over $15 a bag, and is at least a 5+ hour drive for most of us (7 for me), while this place was charging $12.50 or less per bag of feed. Recently...

Just a few snapshots. Erohs and Jade:

Thought this picture was adorable, and wanted to share. Bella is giving a chicken a ride... and I can only imagine what Lady is thinking!

Here's a moral question for you guys. When a breeder has a purchase agreement, that requires a buyer to return the chinchilla if they should no longer keep it, and the breeder is willing to refund the purchase price-- what happens when the buyer doesn't hold up to the end of the deal? What...

Anyone leave near Utica? Familiar with the area? Is it half decent? My fiance and I are heading up to the outskirts of Utica to look at several farms for sale.... Thankfully NY is similar to PA and prohibits breed specific legislation, so my doggie will be safe. We won't be going to any of...
