    What did you do with your flock today?

    One of my leghorns was limping yesterday, so I managed to catch and inspect her foot. Bumblefoot, so I kept her in a rabbit cage last night, and did surgery this morning. She seems to be doing good with the bandage, but hopefully it won't come back. Seems there wasn't a big plug under the scab.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    It's been busy around here, picking raspberries, marionberries, and Asian plums, with the yellow ones starting. Have been picking kale for the girls. Watering, weeding, pruning out finished berry branches. Ripped out some old and lower production raspberries to be replaced with better ones this...

    Watering and more everyday. We've gotten this weather pattern that bring 3 hot days, then cools off for a few, and repeat. My poor beans nd dahlias can't manage the extra hot sun in the afternoons and either burn or wilt. Picking raspberries and marionberries, red plums every other day, with...

    They would dig up all my friend's porch plants. She had them caught and relocated.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    It's utterly frustrating when there is no real customer service or satisfaction from a formerly quality and reputable company. Back during the Covid canning craze, I purchased some lids online, that came from China. Yeah, I know. They all still seal properly. I haven't purchased any from the 3...

    Luckily, these girls eat pellets and crumble with no snobbery. Just no bananas or carrots, thank you. Eggshells get eaten stat.

    Meanwhile, the run renovation by DH is coming along nicely. He is putting up solid roofing so we both can get under it without bending over. Now we can take the tarps down. I have one leghorn that will come and look for broken eggs every time I open the nesting box lid. If I'm not quick, she...

    Her sister has also slowed down on laying, so must be breed and age. Sapphire Blue. 3+ years old. No one else is showing any signs of illness. Thank you!

    She laid probably once or twice a week. Thank you for this information, which can't really be found elsewhere. I am thankful for your vast knowledge.

    What did you do with your flock today?

    I was curious as to what was in her crop, so I did cut it open. Nothing except the cold coconut oil clumps, some residual food, grass, snacks, some liquid and a small, green plum which she had swallowed whole. Nothing blockage wise. Maybe her system just quit. I don't have the heart or stomach...
