INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

[mlm Mike]

I gave up on the girls going back on their eggs. I am also supposed to be working in the garden, but the baby monitor's battery is dead. Now I can't go outside in the heat to work. Darn!

I've been using the dark clouds going over as my excuse, I was out working most of yesterday though.

Germany vrs. France semi final in the Euro! By by to all of you!

There is a spoon in her boot.

Ready to collect eggs.

Obviously, switch that.

mineral block? baking soda?
did you find out if the little guy needed a bottle?

Loose mineral and baking soda are great in a two sides mineral pan free choice in their shed.

Any suggestions?

Be careful not to accidentally let them taste chicken feed. Mine like it better than theirs and will try to get in the pop door to get it.

Thanks. That's probably pretty funny to watch them trying to squeeze through the pop door.

gotta be ready to mix up the food for the birds, or if something looks yummy, she is ready to go!

if you can find someone that does mulch hay, but better quality mulch hay (not moldy or wet)
or non-horse hay, usually has other weeds in it, alfalfa is a hot hay

Actually they do it easily. I now have to put a cattle panel in front of the coop if they are free ranging. It was only sort of funny the first time. Before they busted an expensive heated waterer knocking it down.
