Wisconsin "Cheeseheads" - Page 1974

Good evening everyone!  Looks like I might have some visitors soon hey?  LOL!  I am always the last to know about the plans...

 

Got my new pens into the barn and the hens are getting acclimated...I will add the roos tomorrow.  Hopefully I will have some nice eggs to sell shortly...I plan to do a "test hatch" to make sure everything is working.

 

Congrats on the first hatch of the year Jim!  A barred rock--how original!  Now I thought you would hatch something fabulous for the first thing...oh well.

 

My Roadrunner hen is still on the nest of eggs...the first baby is already a week old!  I keep throwing food around her nest so the baby can eat...I dont think she gets off too much...I wonder if any other eggs will hatch?

Speaking of hatching...DH took the wagon out of the barn today to get the lawn tractor out...of course there was a hen in the hay with a nest...instead of backing the trailer back in he wanted to unload the hay (even though it would be fed in the next two weeks) and unload way in the back of the barn!!!

I tossed the eggs out (there werent too many yet) and then he asked what I did with them...*sigh*...he just doesnt get it!  If only he would have just put the trailer back!  Oh well...not like I need any more R.R. chickens!

 

Well, I am tired of typing on this keyboard...funny how quickly you get used to a different one...this one has the keys more widely spaced so it is hard right now!  And I am tired from working outside all day...good night and sweet dreams to you!  Terri O  (PS) Happy Easter!

Happy Easter !! Sounds like everyone is in full swing for garden plans and hatching new fuzzy butts. Pictures plz :) 

Congratulations Dr.HaHa, I can see you smile from here.

WCC looks like a good start for another coop, good luck tomorrow.

So nice to have the coop cleaned out and the garden tilled and the pool open.

Had the Granddaughters sleep over last night and the Grandsons last weekend. They sure are alot of fun but they poop us out.

We will be going to spend Easter at my Moms with the rest of the family. She supplies the house and we bring everything else.

Wow Jim you sure do have a lot of good stuff to sell, what will you do with all the room when it's gone?

 

Have a great Easter

Susie

 

Either one would be fine, but I was assuming you meant chicks when you said you were incubating. 

See how many you wind up with & how many FT & Bf4 want, and I'll take any extras, after Kristi's 2, of course.

I'm sure FT & Bf4, with all the space those two have, will gladly take all the roos.   
 

 

Cc- your sideways digs will get you a flat tire on your chair... Either that or a Rooster drop at your place...

WCC- Thanks for including me in your hatch plans. But feel free to share with others! I am currently incubating lavender/Isabel/Porcelein orpingtons, gold laced orpingtons, and a few mystery eggs. And I did get your message. I will pm you...

I did more work in the coop. It's never ending! I guess that's what I get for being so crafty! But I will finish it... Tomorrow!

Who's from Cashton on here? I swear I saw someone was. I'm getting my Nigerian dwarf doelings from Cashton next Saturday. They are beautiful.

 

Oh, I see. You can dish it out, just can't take it, hmmmm?????? 

 

I hope everyone has a safe and very Happy Easter!

 

Sweet dreams, all!  

Yes I can dish and dish and dish... Then run happily way then I sing a little song with my fingers in my ears... "la la la la, I can't hear you..."

HAPPY EASTER ! !

Someone offered to sell me 2 well broke, 6 yr old, papered, appaloosa mix geldings for $800. I was really considering getting goats again and scrapping my horse idea. I'm not sure what to do now!

Why not get both ?? LOL I would !!! LOL

 

Happy Easter Everyone !!

 

Doesn't look like I will be going to Racine after all. We had a long day today and time got away from me. The neighobor stopped and I asked if he could take a look at my gulf cart to just give us an idea about what could be wrong. Long story short, he got it running, but he was here for quite some time.

Then my muscovies got out of the garage coop. We managed to catch all but one hen, my favorite one. She is out for the night. Sure hope she will have sense to find her way back home.

 

TO sorry, I won't be coming down. Plus that is not the way I would be taking.

 

Ok, my eye's want to slam shut.  Better try to get to bed early. Oh and WCC, I got your phone message but Da !!! I can't find my phone today? Never left the property so I know it is safe......where ever it is !!!

 

Bf4m  Stop it. You are being an enabler again. I don't need any more breeds of anything around here !! Those ducks sound adorable even if I don't know what they look like.

 

We spent a lot of time outside today trying to decide where to put what.  We are planning on making a nice predator proof (as much as you can make it) pen for the call ducks.

 

We have so many irons in the fire right now there's no room left for the fire

 

Anyway, Happy Easter Everyone, I know I already said that. Don't eat to much, don't eat the poor Pig and drive safe where ever your travels take you !!!

 

 

Nite !!

Oh my gosh FT... You have GOT to look them up! Australian Spotted ducks are adorable and have lots of color variations. The males can be blue headed, green headed, or silver headed. Just the right size, good at mothering, friendly, and quiet. You know you want a few...
