CALIFORNIA The Whole State thread - Page 203

Crud. Woke up and hour ago and my neck and shoulder are killing me. I think it's the cold. Went to get Kayla's clothes together and she says she wanted to lay on my bed and watch TV, so I told her she WAS going to school. She says "Sully grandma, there's no school today." Then Dakotah just now walked out of his room. Who stole friday???  I'm going back to bed and see if I can get my neck to stop hurting. I spent yesterday thinking "If I could just sleep in and rest!"

 They did

WC black polish, silver penciled rocks, bantam BR & bantam buff brahma

I ended up driving to W. Sac to fetch them.  They missed the only truck coming up the hill to my PO and I didn't want them to sit and possibly get stuck until Monday.

As far as city property I'm just not sure, but they have very nice neighborhoods and I know the areas I've been too have HOAs. I hate those things.

 

Some people set up fans in coops for their birds. I'm in the Central Valley and it gets HOT! I freeze water in gallon milk jugs. I put ice in waterers and I've been known to spray down my flock. At least combs and legs. My SIL is supposed to set up a watering system with buckets and barrels and PVC. Once that's done, I'll just stick jugs into the whole thing and refreeze when I need to.

Thanks to you and all the other posters that left information. We leave tomorrow morning. We're not locked in to Granite Bay, it's just on the list. Personally I like an older house with some character to 'box' communities. We are a little concerned about resale though, so we'll have to weigh our options. I'd love to get our ladies across the border somehow. I may ask the people at the checkpoint tomorrow about it too. My chickens are so spoiled, they will probably have their own a/c or cooled walls! LOL. I like the foothills idea, but I've also been researching rattlesnakes. My husband is terrified of snakes and if he gets wind that there are rattlers anywhere near there, he will refuse to move. Some of the literature said they are more concentrated in the foothills area that in the more crowded landscaped communities. I will have to put a snake barrier in our backyard while he's at work and sort of forget to mention it! 
 

Where'd everybody go?  One minute we are reading about the cool Polish and the next...  Did the mother ship finally come to take her children home?

Lost my boarding pass. So wish the Mother Ship would come back.

Just ache too much to sit here long guys.

My CL add one stinkin email for me and I don't know what happened but I erased it. Hoping I can fell better and again get get something fixed on my car, so I can meet some FB people to pick up chicks. I'm just so tired lately, but I have a hatch due the 31st and I'm hoping I'm not going to have any more problems, so I'll need the room.
