    Jest Another Day in Pear-A-Dice - Higgins Rat Ranch Conservation Farm in Alberta

    Hi Tara, glad to be back. I've been out of commisssion for 3 weeks at rehab after a knee replacement. It went stellar and I'm so glad to be home again. Still have to have someone to follow me around so I'm still "handicapped" for a couple of more weeks but it's easy peasy. Yes, a lot of...

    I like your thinking diva.. I can handle a little failure. Hey Tara, hope you are feeling better. I had to go back and read for a spell. My computer was on the fritz for weeks and I still am catching up. Loving your pics. So different from my dry brown scenes in Louisiana. We won't...

    Hi Tara, how's life in the cold. Still nice balmy 80's around here. I'd ideally like a bread shape machine but who knows what the best price will be. I'll be keeping an eye out. Love Fixin's. Queen of the Hill. When my gdaughter Nikki had to stay in ICU for a month with lung damage...

    Yeah, I've got my SFH eggs in the incubator day 1. Looking good. I'm trying a new way of doing it. To raise hatchability and lower mortality and deformities, I'm soaking the eggs in 1 tsp Ascorbic Acid (Vit C) in 1 liter of water for 2 min and then air drying before putting in the...

    Hi Tara, beautiful post as always. Wonderful pictures. I'm excited that my Swedish Flower Hen eggs are being shipped on Sept 9. This was a replacement for the scrambled Basque and Coronation Sussex from several months ago. The seller discontinued the Basque and the young cockerel Sussex is...

    Yeah, me too, at 67 (Feb 20) My knee is actually much better (so I cancelled the appt with the surgeon). Going out to put the nest boxes on the shelving in the coop. BECAUSE I have eggs. One yesterday and 3 today. Woohoo Then I'm putting the latch on the 3'x12' growout pen and...

    This is just a storeroom. I'm not making a coop out of it. I just wanted to cool it off some. I downloaded a video on the 5 gallon air cooler. I have most of the stuff including the small fan. I'm hearing thunder so we may get some more rain. I have a grow out pen that is 3' x 12' and I...

    You know Lacy, the thought of windows has occurred to me but I never thought about a door. SIL just spent $700 getting partially insulated on his storeroom and I know that is not my option. The only thing is I won't need it after the babies get bigger. What am I talking about???? I have 2...

    Thanks chickadoodles and Lacy Blue Those are perfect answers. I'm not going to be rushed into anything. Too much to do. And by winter down here that'll be almost December.

    Hi Tara, coming from La where hot summer is 8 months. I have 2 different sets of eggs coming in 2 weeks and my DR wants me to see an Orthopedic surgeon to have my right knee replaced. Hate that. I have too many things going on right now. I have a small batch of 3 week olders in the...

    Hey Tara, glad to see you are on going. Looking at your metal tank I wondered what you did with the cannon. Great pictures. Your life is so different from my hot flat Louisiana piece of land. But that's ok. I don't have snow. Just HEAT.

    So I'm assuming that you don't get antsy when your internet goes out for over a few hours? Go figure.
