It would be nice to have a slower paced, more mature chatroom available for those of us who don't like the current BYC chat setup. Sorry, but I really don't like the childishness that goes on in there :rolleyes:

We've got it on the todo list, but it may be a while.

Change the rules to read BYH's instead of BYC's.

Hi,

I'm new and I just love this site - love Backyard Chicken site as well. I have a question...under the baby "cow" category...why not use the word or term "cattle" instead. Young bulls and steers are not baby cows. The term cow should only be used for adult females. Maybe the last category could be called "Everything Else Bovine." I just had to ask...I hope I haven't upset anyone - it just seems like a site - that is meant to help educate members should use the correct term/terms. Thanks for your time...I appreciate all that you do.

That's a valid point. I'll let Farmer Kitty and the others with experience make the final call.

It would be something that would need to follow through with all the animals. Example: Instead of "Baby Cow" it should be "Calves" or Instead of "Baby Goats" it should be "Kids".

I think we used "Cows" instead of "Cattle" due to combining over from BYCows.

I was wondering if you could move posts in the other pets and livestock section from BYC to BYH's when people are posting about goats, horses, llamas...etc.
Sounds difficult to me but I thought I'd ask since mods can move posts to different areas. I just didn't know if you could move it to a different site.
