Hey! Long time no speak!
How have you been?
I could’ve sworn they needed a higher humidity. Memory isn’t what it used to be.
I will adjust and try again. I got extra thermometers/hygrometers with no real discrepancies. It’ll be a bit before I have enough eggs to try again, my hatching eggs sell...
Hey y’all!
I have been raising guinea for a few years and am in my second year of trouble hatching eggs in my Nurture Right 360. Last year I added new stock to my flock to enhance their fertility, and that has worked as candling 1-1/2 weeks in, 18 out of 22 are developing. However, when it comes...
My La Fleche have given me seven babies so far, and they are still sitting on a PILE of eggs. We shall see 😍
I adopted (rescued) a flock of eight silkies today. They are covered in mites, had strings dug into their feet, just all around bad. But they are gearing up for bath time tomorrow and...
Oh! I also caught a black snake and watched my guineas circle him until he played dead. I was on facetime with my hubbs and he couldn’t believe I caught it with my bare hands. Hilarious.
I also picked up some GORGEOUS barnevelder roos to put in with my layer flock. So pretty!
And here are my...
Hi!
My pavers are actually old apartment steps. My husband is a maintenance director and one of his properties switched to wood, so he brought them all home. They are 60lbs each so they stay in one spot fairly well and are great for borders (can’t dig through them) around the pens and lifting up...
Hey guys!
We have been having an awful run with a giant and genius raccoon. Took out half my layer flock in about two weeks. I am talking moving cinderblocks to get at my roosting chickens. Went after the roosters first so there would be no struggle. Pain in my butt and super mad.
My husband got...
We leave a good portion of clover groundcover flowering, and oh if I had the time to tell you about my flowers... hundreds of feet of heritage climbing roses, butterfly bushes, honeysuckle, blackberries, our garden that’s close to an acre; our bees are happy. The trees in our yard buzz in the...
Thank you so so much! I was thinking LLC and receipts and insurance, but wasn’t sure where to start.
You have helped me convince my husband that incorporating is the way to go. Also, no worries, we will submit through our accountant any final moves/decisions for advice.
Cheers! 🤩
Sorry for the delay! I have them in with my Serama and easter egger chicks, but you can tell they are differently colored, two almost pure black, one grayish, one buff/columbian looking, and ALL heavily bell-bottomed 😂 love it.
Any ideas on hens/roos? I am starting to be afraid of Fernando their...
I stepped on a rusty nail today. Thank goodness for modern medicine! Crocs don’t have shocks, y’all!
I made a custom pallet planter for my climbing cucumber plants. 7’ tall and only spent about $7 on it. Trying to spruce the house up a bit. Also got this awesome vintage 60’s Coke machine that...
Wow! That is awesome!!!
I am in Wake Forest, North Carolina. We say ‘Hey Y’all’ instead of Aloha.
Land here isn’t much easier to come by, we apparently have one of the hottest housing markets in the US. We got lucky bc our neighbor has a ton of land and is splitting some of it up because they...
Her name is Bonnie Grace and she knows she’s cute 🤣 almost 2-1/2. She loves chickens as much as I do. Thank you!
The egg was a double-yolker, idk how to post video here but I made it in my hubby’s egg and bacon sandwich the next morning and he was a happy fella. Also have 13 babies in the...
We adopted 21 new birds this week, not sure where the total is now. One is a Muscovy duck, which must be the dumbest duck because she is silent and there are zero cute quacking noises for my efforts in keeping her kiddie pool full. Got some new roosters, including a barred rock so we have some...
Hey guys!
I have a small farm in NC, and my husband and I are purchasing two adjoining acres in order to increase our farm to the 5 acre minimum for NC state tax breaks.
If you have seen my posts before, you know I have anywhere from 100 to 150 chickens and guineas at a given time. I do sell...
