She is a real wouse....my exact opposite.

I told her I was shipping her a "prize" (in this family that means a gift for no reason) and she is now sceptical that I am in fact sending her either 1) weird pee eggs....or

2) something that is alive

I did not tell her what the prize is, but I will tell you guys...it is one of Dawn's lotion bar roll ups that are absolutely fantastic !!!!!!!!!!!

We found on line a plastics manufacturer that sells bulk these large 1 OZ sized chap-stick like containers, so dawn did the lotion in then,.......AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got one for me, Mom & skeptic sissy sister.

I should send her something weird too...just to remind her I yam what I yam........she calls me (her worst cuss word name) A WIERDO......

Is that like so grade school ?????????????? WIERDO ????????????   WIERDO ????????????????

I found it more interesting than gross, actually......fascinates me how other cultures eat & their beliefs....it is not like they are eating babies (balut) , that I cannot deal with, still I would not eat pee eggs either..just sayin'

You sure can tell when it is nice weather cuz the WA peeps are way down on the Where am I? page............

So I weed wacked up the hill (about 40-45 degree hill) for about 50 yeards and then tuckered out...4 foot tall grass, HOT up there.

Tomorrow I will do more.

hard on this old lady !!

I should hire the Mexican firneds out here, they work really good and heat never stops them...man the heat kills me.

I'll keep that in mind if I decide to buy and incubator! Or if one of my girls goes broody upon laying eggs.

Hey...when do they go broody? Any time, or much more likely in the spring?? Just wondering when I can expect to allow a mama to hatch her own clutch :)

Thanks Greg for sparring me the embarrassment I too was about to call. Thought the sky was on fire.

I thought I'd been grabbed by aliens and transported someplace else.

It's too hot.

I'm melting.

My eyes hurt.

I'm getting sunburned.

I'm all sweaty.

I lost my sunglasses.

Anyone got any cheese? Lol!

Russ- Break over back outside, gotta mow the backyard.

What you want to do if you want to induce broodiness (no guarantee it will happen) is have a dark quiet coop.....very CALM.......and get a handful of eggs & mark a big X on them in a certain dark corner...this lets you know the fresh laid eggs from the trap eggs.

Maybe, a hen will come along & say "WOW look at those lovely eggs !"

And she may settle right down into broodiness.

Reach under her daily & pull out any fresh laid eggs (with no X) to eat.

Hens will often get together in what I call "a village" situation, where they all come in & lay their egg WITH the broody hen, and thus a broody hen that is not laying herself, will have more & more eggs daily......another reason to collect eggs several times a day.
