Also, question about supplemental light. Does anyone use it to keep the birds laying? I know it shortens their lifespan but I plan on culling my stock next year to be replaced by fresh birds anyways.
Does it need to be a certain type of light?

Does anyone actually like twinkies though?

There's always deep fried twinkies too

Also, more weatherproof is more better

@The Farmers' Daughter - How goes the house project??? Anything exciting to report on?

I picked up my mail last night and the hard copy of the building permit was there!
Repairs/construction of our driveway will commence tomorrow and foundation construction will hopefully begin Thursday or Friday!!

It has scared me again (had heard of it before once) and I am thinking of trying the cleanse and diet that they mention.

But of course the notion of giving up sweets forever is daunting

Thinking of trying these too, it mentioned them

I wouldn't diet if I were you. I know about a million people who are constantly yoyo dieting on the latest fad. Paleo this, Keto that, blah, blah, blah.
It's all about cutting out processed food and getting a little exercise in there. If you dramatically cut calories, it can cause your body to pack away what you do give it.
Give yourself one day a week to eat "naughty" foods, but that's it. Oh, and lay off the deep fried oreos!!!!!

Right??? Sick. Or fried snickers bars. Blech. I really love a fresh corn dog though. Slathered in mustard. Mmmmm....
I won't lie, I'll enjoy a gas station corn dog too, just not as much.

I used to work a concession at county fairs in Ohio. Our specialty was deep fried pickles. We also did deep fried veggies. I love cauliflower, carrots & sweet potatoes. Just for us we would do up hot dogs in the same batter. I found them much tastier than a corn dog. We would do the same with pop tarts too.

Deep fried pickles are my absolute favourite!
