At Crossroads with Chickens: A "what If It Works?" Adventure in Off-Grid Living & Quest for HomeIn 2012, McCagg and her husband, Carl built an off grid, solar powered house in Jaffrey, New Hampshire. It was to be a weekend getaway for the writer ("what's this pitchfork for?") and trombonist (a wannabe farmer). In December, with two cats and six newly adopted chicks, they drove up to Jaffrey from their home in Providence, Rhode Island, ostensibly just for the winter so their new pipes wouldn't freeze. . . .

In 2012, McCagg and her husband, Carl built an off-grid, solar-powered house in Jaffrey, New Hampshire. It was to be a weekend getaway for the writer ("what's this pitchfork for?") and trombonist (a wannabe farmer). In December, with two cats and six newly adopted chicks, they drove up to Jaffrey from their home in Providence, Rhode Island, ostensibly just for the winter so their new pipes wouldn't freeze. . . . But their hen "Rhoda Red" turned out to be "Big Red." Roosters are outlawed by Providence city regulations, so Big Red couldn't go back. Thus, writes McCagg, "neither did we. Survival of the fittest. Natural selection. Soul evolution. We named our 193-acre home "Darwin's View" for a reason." Chicken kerfuffles lighten the mood, but this story is born of heartbreak, of yearning for the great beauty of the world as it used to be. As she moves from full-time weekender to organic gardener, McCagg's interlaces her tale with her mother's battle with Parkinson's, braiding both Mother and Mother Nature. Add the sun, the wind, and a cock-a-doodle-do, and you have the recipe for a perfect storm of personal growth rippling out to effect a larger transformation.Binding Type: Paperback

Good grip glow ball
Style: Recharges, Size: Medium
Love this glow in the dark Chuck IT. Get a black light flashlight to charge the neon instantly. Good texture gives the dog better grip than the smooth all white glow in the dark chuck it balls.

Great treat replacing for motivated dogs!!!
Color: Yellow
i use this ball strictly for training purposes with my Aussie who is super obsessed with balls. My dog seriously loves this ball. This has taken the place of treats. When we aren’t training the ball goes in a closet. So far it’s durable enough for our training session. (If we have a good session he is rewarded with having free access to the ball for a limited time, he enjoys a little tug so I normally hold the rope and let him have at the ball) for $10 id say it’s worth it. It’s definitely not indestructible but it is cheaper for me to replace these than buying treats every week as rewards.

Fun toy
Color: Orange
Well made. The puppies love it, BUT it is too hard for them at an early age ( 2 1/2 months. They ended up grabbing the rope. As they got 5-6 months they were fine. Make another model 1 inch smaller and half as hard
