    What did you do with your flock today?

    This one is not my photo, as my pullets are only 15 weeks old, so still looks like a leghorn with black feathers sprinkled in.

    What did you do with your flock today?

    I guess so. The lady that raises them said that their facial color change gradually.

    Just stepped on an uneven surface, my foot probably bent funny and the ligament pulled off a small piece of bone on the 5th metatarsal. Pain was almost like giving birth. All good, just about. Now I have an upper respiratory infection, aka bad cold, so have had to cancel my appointments this week.

    What did you do with your flock today?

    They are cross of an Ayam cemani roo and a White Leghorn hen. This is an adult. My girls faces still look like leghorn, and have the black feathers sprinkled in.

    Well, we have 56°, had a deluge of hail and rain this afternoon. I'm afraid to check my dahlias. Thunder continues to rumble every now and then. The new girls have now been unsequestered, and have become a flock of 6. They were a bit timid when I let them out last evening, but were roaming the...

    Whatcha Making for Supper?

    Today DH went crabbing and brought home Dungeness crab, I made some baguettes, and we have leftover lasagne to heat and eat. After spending the day on my feet in the kitchen squeezing cooked grapes for wine, etc. It's good to have leftovers.

    Anyone have an idea on breed?

    If you I have any, feed him higher protein feed so he can build muscle.

    Mites

    What kind of mites do you have? Are they on the birds, or come out at night to feed?

    Guess I haven't mentioned chicken fever hit and I got 6 new pullets last weekend. I was actually wanting brown egg layers, ended up with more neutral colored girls. 🤪 2 Mystic marans, 2 F1 Zombies and 2 F1 Blue Olive Eggers. I haven't a clue about breeding designations, but I guess If I...

    I would have thought your area has a bit more warm weather for peppers. I haven't planted peppers after moving back here from TX in 2016. Tomatoes are almost done. I hope they all finish. I might just pull and hang the plants before it starts rainy cold weather. My dry beans are molding a bit...

    What did you do with your flock today?

    Happy 🍂🍁🍁🍂🍂Fall, or Spring, depending on where you live. This past weekend the fever hit, and I acquired 6 new pullets, 3 - 4.5 months old. They won't be laying for about 6 weeks or more. 2 Mystic marans, 2 Zombies, and 2 Blue Olive eggers. I will be thrilled when the first eggs are laid, and...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Picked what I think are the last of the green beans, picked dried bean pods to shell out, last of the cukes before retiring them, and lots of kale and collards for DH to take to work. I am out of freezer space and quart jars. Tomatoes are almost finished. Will box ripen, then make sauce later...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I wonder if a hydrogen peroxide drench would work? I know it works on root maggots. My brother once told me that bleach will kill nematodes.

    I am getting garden fatigue, if that is the term for "it's producing so well, I don't have anymore freezer space or canning jars." Now with just the two of us most of the meals, it doesn't make sense to have a huge garden anymore.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Picked the first ripe grapes yesterday, which is a huge win. In past years, the birds and raccoons got them. All safe, so far, with organza bags and an electric fence, and 2 cats. Thinking of bagging all my apples next season. Lots of worms in them and falling fruit now. Still picking tomatoes...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    What are the Golden brown ones? I see black beans, which I haven't tried. My plants are at the yellowing stage, but they need to hurry up. Stopping the water on them.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Keep an eye on the discoloration. They can get blight or other tomato related diseases.
