I wonder if McMurray hatchery is overbreeding some of their birds
Comments (11)Not sure. It could just be like Fancifowl said. I haven't ordered from other hatcheries, so I can't compare my experiences. Most of their birds are healthy, I guess I just got a couple of bum birds. I was happy with all the other chicks I got from them, they are growing like crazy! :) I plan to get some guinea keats from them next year, but I want to also get some muscovy ducks too, but I'll go to another hatchery for that, since MM doesn't sell them....See MorePaulinCT or anyone else whose had a varmint problem
Comments (3)I'm afraid I never stopped them, they did their damage until they were through. They just laughed at those products made from putrefied eggs, etc., fwiw. Nauseated me, but apparently not them. If you want them gone now, you need to kill them all. If you can't stomach that (as I couldn't) your only other choice is to live with them until winter, then when they are less active next spring your new KBG will recover. I wish I had better advice, but I don't think there is any. It is a serious problem for the concientious-minded....See MoreHas anyone else had problem with Amazon packaging?
Comments (29)We get small orders rattling around in a huge box, as some others have said. You should have seen the box when my wife ordered a Japanese thimble! I don't recall ever getting a broken or leaky package. Guess we've been lucky. But Anglophilia, I'm a jam maker and seedless raspberry sounds wonderful. I'm going to have to try that....I mail jam to family out of state and they always get new tea towels with it because I put each jar inside a sealed zip bag within a second sealed zip bag with a paper towel or two. Then I wrap tea towels around each jar and rubber-band them. I use a box small enough to fit snugly. It doesn't look like a professional packaging job, but it protects everything and insures against messes....See MoreHas anyone else had problems with the white paint on starmark cabinets
Comments (4)JuneKnow...When I clean them with a damp sponge, moisture collects in the crevice between the trim and the door face. But the paint is also coming off too easily and there are a few places where it has chipped off. I stripped the stain off and painted my old cabinets, and didn't have this problem....See Moresred98
