LOL..anyone ever see this? Set three traps. Had the baby chicks in a secure place. Of course I knew that the mice would still find the food, and be able to get to it, but I usually catch a mouse when I set a few traps out with cheese.
This baby got stuck!

Just candled my eggs, all are developing at a good rate. The one I was concerned about that was put in on the 9th gave us a bit of a scare tonight. We couldn't see anything moving in the egg but we waited a min and there he was! He was just playing in the center of the egg! That one's gonna be a handful, lol.

Been down that same road, friend, only with my own father. He stayed with us after Mom died for a year and a half, during which time we watched him slowly slipping away. When he drew his final breath in our living room, with family all around him, the transition from this world to the next was about as peaceful as it could be. We were, naturally, sad that he was gone, but comforted by the knowledge that he was in a far better place than the one he'd just left, and whatever pain he'd been in was gone forever. May the same serenity and peacefulness be with you and your family now and in the times to come, my friend.

Well, it' sback to the drawing board for us. - my 12 year old and 2 year old decided they wanted to "see" the incubator and dropped it, breaking all the eggs while I was out with the baby chickens in their new pen.... (they still are in the house, but I took them out there for a few minutes to explore.)

However, I was able to get the humidity to 26% over night, and keep the temp stable at 99.6.... with out the eggs in it. So... maybe this will work out better. It was not fun cleaning egg yolk off my bathroom floor. :/

I went a little overboard buying seeds the other day.

Also got a big problem in my goat coop. Guess everyone has had enough of this wet ground.


And the littles came through the fence to visit me!!

Morning all!

We let our two 9 week old babies out to free range with the big girls for the first time last night. The big girls ignored them for the most part, but they are SO spooky and crazy that they would flip out if anything moved near them. Took a bit, but my daughter finally caught them so we could put them back up. I think they are almost ready to join the flock. I was trying to hold out hope that the little Lavender Orpington is a hen, but I don't think I can remain in denial. I have known since 3 weeks old that the Olive Egger is a rooster (unfortunately, as I really wanted the olive eggs!); but was holding out hope on the Lavender...oh well! Here they are checking out the yard.
