    Mrs lost her job due to a huge(20%!) company wide downsize on May4. We'll be fine for 6-10months and hoping she finds something soon. Too brain scattered to play around on here but planning to come back later. The chickens are doing well.

    What record keeping system are you using?

    My mrs and I were talking about the same thing. I’ve gotta take a look at FarmOS because I’ve just started and my apple numbers file is getting ridiculous. Before we moved I was gonna work on a to-do app but I think flock records is more urgent/interesting. :) I will post on the forum if I...

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    From 4 hens April 28 = one naked egg in the poop tray overnight, one very thin shelled egg that was utterly crushed in the nestbox, and two more eggs. Pretty sure this was my fault as I took their coop away for cleaning and to install an auto door the afternoon before. I gave them water of...

    Any Home Bakers Here?

    Gluten free oatmeal raisin cookies today. I usually whip up one or two batches of this and keep the dough portioned in the freezer so we can just bake one or two each whenever we want instead of eating all 24 in two days.
