calling any one from missouri

thats super fun, I make beads and sell carved figures sometimes, anything to make a dollar ( them hippie folk will pay 10-15$ each for a nice dreadlock bead) , I cleared almost an acre of timber myself last year and it was pretty fun but this year i'm not as available taking care of my ex's stroked out granny and helping another elderly couple out in bella vista, I dont hardly have time for my own chores. . I didnt have much need for the other 14 acres of trees and they really needed thinned out, waited to long to log on half of my property and it chocked out all the new growth. it looks great now. I was very impressed. even found out i had another view i didnt know i had before.

Is anyone enjoying the heat and bugs????

I've been adding ice cubes to the water bucket for the chickens good thing they have plenty of shade to hide under. I've not noticed more than a few bugs and flies and such.

We had to go to Springfield yesterday. In a parking lot in the southern part of the city, was a flock of at least a dozen wild geese plus one mostly white domestic type goose. It was a little larger, heavier, and had buff markings on its wings. I didn't have a camera.

Yep I a deer nanny lol. We can be standing on the deck when she comes to pick up junior and she just looks up at us for a minute and goes on her way with the little one in tow. It's so cool to watch.

How funny, she must feel that your place is a safe zone.

HI, haven't been here for awhile. Not much computer time lately. Should be mowing and will be in a few. Hope no issues with your flock with the heat and fireworks. Mine haven't seemed to mind either, myself and the pups aren't doing as well as the chickens. They pups are terrified of the fireworks and have been keeping me awake nights.

The girls are ready to get out and roam the yard at any chance and sometimes want to stay out and play when I really need them to go back in. I must look like an idiot chasing chickens. ;

Are you going to the Crawford County fair this year? (Girard KS) Aug 1-4. And the Ozark Empire Fair? I think poultry there is Aug 4, will have to double check. Anyone else going to either one? State Fair? I think it's Aug 9 for poultry.... That's kind of far for us, but we did go last year to see the chickens.

Doubtful. That will be when I'm preparing for school to start up again.

We'll go to that one too. Barton County (where we live) doesn't have poultry at theirs.
