Yeah, and half the puppies at the pound, too - but not just yet.
It's a good thing I'm so far away
4 hens is enough right now, and they think I'm the rooster anyway
When mine aren't laying I go without eggs unless I really want them for something baked.
When they are giving me eggs I eat eggs every day.
I've heard you can freeze them, but I haven't tried it.
I like to eat fresh venison in the Fall,
canned or frozen whenever I can...
Like the bears I...
I had a grape arbor in Irvington. The chickens got all the lower grapes, and the rats or birds always got the rest. I would say tomorrow I'm going to harvest! By tomorrow they would all be gone but the last few little green ones. One year I covered the whole thing with bird netting and caught a...
Thanks for the corrected spelling, W4W - I forget.
I felt so sorry for the hens last week, we had 100++ temps and only cooled into the upper 60's by dawn. I had a nice shady coop/pen in Fremont. I wish I could have kept the house and yards and brought them up here with me.
My brother's coop...
Only hell is as hot as Redding - but yes, Yreka gets almost as hot :>) We only got up to 106 this year. I couldn't live in Vegas.
I moved up here from Fremont last year. I have 1 Silver Laced Wyandott, 2 Cochins, and one EE (that's Pecker)
We had a Lab X that loved tomatoes and peaches. I...
you're funny :>)
Autumn in Sonoma already?
Weird weather - still Summer in Yreka
I don't have a garden for the hens to destroy this year, maybe I'll go check out my neighbor's garden, he's off on a fire in WA
I'm like that, too. I've always been a 'night owl' sometimes getting no sleep, or only a few hours.
I used to say I'll sleep when I'm dead. Big talk, ay?
It's been real hard learning to sleep alone again. Just as I would be drifting off my mind would remember and I'd begin to cry. Night after...
I didn't know about all this, you did advise me to "just jump in anywhere" when I said it was going to take forever to catch up. Someone could make a comedy movie out of this. But I sure never meant to be unkind in any way. And the theme is should I buy eggs that I've been subscribed to so I...
I think you are an awesome g'ma! You are giving her your love and a lot of patient guidance :>) The bond is very strong, and it is so valuable. "I want to do it myself!" is really good, but sometimes - "not yet, watch how I do it" is the best course of action. I think. Spilled stuff is part of...
