Nothing better than seeing a cow squared and filled out on nothing but grass and hay.

My gosh they are so cute.

I think all cows are so cute and opps LoL I ment the calf's but either way there all cute. And you sure can tell they are well feed and the do look happy. Better to be a tank then some of those cows I see that are just skin and bones.

Mom has been home less than 24 hours and the problems have started.

Judy had her over here for supper last night. When she was getting ready to go back home she said " Oh, I need some eggs".

Judy said "sure" and gave her a cartoon of eggs.

This morning I was getting eggs ready to hatch and see how many I had to go into the incubators. I could not find my cartoon of my "combless BA's". I know they are pea comb, but I call them combless..... in that cartoon was my Speckled Sussex eggs and some EE I picked out based on egg color.


I did found them though, in Mom's refrigerator. She couldn't leave them out like I do!! NO NO NO she had to put them in her fridge!.....

So I am now going to see if a night in the fridge kills the eggs.........

I don't think it does. What temperature was her refrigerator, I've kept duck eggs in the fridge for 1 week and then used them. But then again duck eggs are a totally different story
