Re: [CHICKENS-101] Re: Newbie with Silkie Question

Ronna, I answered your questions on both groups. I thought it odd that you did not acknowledge my answers on the other group and those who answered too, and recommended the same because I answered there first. Then the same questions were posted here after we answered your questions on the other group. Seemed odd to me and like you were not valuing the time we took because you turned around and posted here without acknowledging us on the other group. I did not recommend banishment, I asked you why you posted elsewhere, then here. Cathryn

I find it somewhat upsetting that if a person is trying to get as much
information as possible that a group would even consider banishment
just because the same question appeared on more that one group. I am
just trying to avoid some of the pitfalls that are common to newbies
(especially at the expense of the animals). Furthermore, it took a
couple of days before I began receiving feedback. As a result I
though that I had done something wrong when I tried to send my
question so I asked again. I am a member of 2 chicken groups. I did
not remember which site I asked the first time and it never occurred
to me I might be committing an unpardonable sin if my question
appeared on both sites.

I also wonder if EVERYONE in this group is also a member of the other
group..

My husband and I have been planning to begin our homestead since last
June. We are moving into our homestead this week. Forgive my over
excitement. I just want to be a responsible caregiver for any animals
I raise.

Once again, I apologize and I will try not to let it happen again.

Blessings,
