Beautiful sunny day here.

Missed all the rain so far.

Wind has been 20 plus all day. Got 2 more hoop panels up in the garden and 8 beefsteak and better boy tomato plants put in.

Cucumber and zucchini next week if the green houses ever get them ready.

Broody virus continues to spread.

Now I have a broody palm, 2 broody narris,red sex link and an EE chicken.

1 let one set now it spreads like a wildfire.

At least my bourbons haven't gone yet. Maybe they are far enough away to keep them isolated from it.

I have a nari, palm, and leghorn all three sharing the same nest. No hissing, but not moving when we go to collect eggs. The leghorn is trying to figure out the turkeys who both coooo when being petted on the nest. Don't think the leghorn is into the whole petting thing.

I've heard of it spreading to humans sometimes...

There's is a cure though.

Snip and clip.

Isolation in a wire cage will prevent it too, just like in birdies

Not noooo but **** no!!!!!

It is a pain though. Egg production is down a considerable bit.

I haven't seen any turkey eggs in a while. All 3 Rp hens are sitting on who knows what. Well,they are sitting on a couple of broody hens that figured out I wouldn't mess with turkeys
