    The Moonshiner's Leghorns

    I'm looking into buying some of that shade cloth with those grommets in them so I can get them put up before spring. Those should help. The air can still flow through them, but they will block out part of the sun. I put one of those up a few year's ago, but it's starting to wear out.

    Ok, I've more then likely passed by them. I prefer the bucket ones instead. Those other feeders and waterers don't seem to hold up very well in the summer sun and heat over here. The waterers like that are fast to grow algea.

    Oh, and this is what I used to make those 5 gallon bucket feeders, but they would also work with containers that are bigger then that. I set mine up on a couple of those cement blocks to keep it up off of the ground. That might help some of you up north that will be dealing with those colder...

    Don't worry, I have a long bed Ram pickup. It may be a 1996, but we still keep it going strong.

    I hope that the buff moonys will do well when I get some.

    Maybe because you have so many of them over there?

    Talking about feeders, you just reminded me to replace the lid on one of my 5 gallon feed buckets that I use. I normally only have to top the feed off in it once a week, or at least I did when I had the Bielefelder's. I don't know how much feed the Moony's will go through yet.

    Thanksgiving is coming soon and I bet one of those turkeys will look good on your table.

    That's the way to do it. I picked up feed tonight at tsc and then went to Whataburger.

    Wow. I'm just about the opposite of the hatching thing down here, since I don't get any snow in winter. But because of our very hot summer's I have to start the hatching process before most other's do. I want the chick's to be adapted to the heat before it hits. Then it's putting several water...

    And get bored before the groundhog does? Something tells me that you are not used to sitting around doing nothing.

    @The Moonshiner Is it possible to turn old refrigerators or deep chest freezers that don't work into some huge incubator's?

    As the number of chickens and the feed need grows, I will keep that in mind. Edited to add.... Better yet, I can always start looking now, or I can buy a new one for the house, and then move this old one out there. I bought this one used from a friend that had bought a new one several years ago.

    I don't use the plastic ones neither. I bought some of those Behrens 31 gallon trash cans with lids. The handle on the lid had small gaps, so I filled them in with a sealant so that bugs couldn't get in. I have those sitting on an old budwieser delivery pallet that handles the weight and holds...
