    I need to work on downsizing my flock a bit. Chicken math got the best of me. I have no problems getting rid of the boys, but I would hate to cull a pullet. Is there anyone in the Columbia area looking to get more birds?

    Wow, I did not know that. I will have to look at the thermometer I have in there, it keeps track of the Temp and humidity of the last 24 hours. If it doesn't work in the coops with the extra humidity, then I'll let my husband use it in the shop.

    Now that this heat wave broke, I need to start freezing corn for the chickens to throw out there in the morning. The free range birds do okay, but my orpingtons are struggling in the heat. I'm gonna try to fix the air flow in their coop so that it's not so bad until they have access to their run.

    I had my tomato starts outside and lost about 1/2 of them even covered *sigh* I really knew better. We always seem to get a late frost in April when I try to garden.

    I've decided to take off a day at work and get my garden set up. I have some peppers and tomatoes that want to be outside very badly. And I would love to get my beans and vine plants planted.

    Chick fever hit me hard. I have an almost overwhelming amount of chicks. Now I'm going to have to rush and make some chicken tractors to move my adult birds around in and keep my breeding groups so that my new babies can have the coops. I got my F1xF1 Freedom Rangers in the incubator. I'm...

    I managed to move 1 inside the coop, hopefully it starts to thaw and the other I moved towards the coop, but I couldn’t get it inside cuz the cord was covered in a sheet of ice. I’ll try to mess with it more tomorrow since I have the day off and daycare is opened.

    -8 here, feels like -27 with the wind. Waiting for my mom to come visit so I can take water out to the chickens since it’s gotten so cold, the warmer pads I have for the water tanks can’t keep the water from freezing. It’s a good thing I have Monday off. I think I’ll move the water into the...

    Has anyone had eggs shipped to them recently? I'm interested in buying some but I am worried about them being damaged in the post. If you have, what side of the state are you on and what was your experience?

    I think it depends on the type of sunflower. The type my mom has grow many different blossoms, but I've seen some that just have 1.

    They are also not a fan of Irish Spring soap. In fact a lot of things don't like it's smell, and you can hide them around in your bushes or what not.

    All straight run except the Whiting True Blues, there are suppose to be 7 pullets and 3 cockerels. I am a bit worried that I have more than 3 cockerels though, time will tell.
