I think it is in Kiki's signature. You're not 100% crazy yet!

thanks. I would have been thinking about that in my sleep

I swear I'm losing it!
I must have imagined seeing it.
I could have sworn I saw official member of the squatch watchers IN RED at the bottom of someone's post.
I've now read backwards to page 89 and didn't see it.
I think I need to go to bed!
Tomorrow, we need to give this gang a name. Lol.
Almost 100 pages now.
Hasn't it been fun?
Thanks @theuglychick !

Oh I just added it to my signature. That is what you do. I couldn't find the option to put it in red, but that might be because I'm not a premium member.

Im hitting the hay too.

Got my lunesta going!

It's been a fun day! Good night!

G'night chick!

Imma take more nyquil and head to bed too.

I say moist all the time... simply because it IS a gross sounding word.

My kids and I say moist b/c so many people think it's gross. My daughter said it at school once and a teacher told her to never say that work again. I blame HIMYM for that one.

Kiddie pools work great with a tarp over it like a tent 20$ total cost

Hmmm I'll have to think about that. I'm not sure it would work w/ how my coop/ run is laid out, but it's worth considering. Thanks!

Do all bantams lay about the same frequency?

How often?

Neither of my 2 little gift pullets have laid anything yet. I guess they are just at the point of lay, maybe.

I have a sebright bantam who was hatched sometime in Feb, laid her first egg 7/29/17 and she lays 1 egg 5-6 days a week. I keep track of # of eggs / day on a calendar b/c I'm weird like that.

I've got a 6 month spreadsheet!

Edited: I went looking and it isn't in hers. I know I've seen it too though.

Kiki is! She is a greeter I believe

We use a kiddie pool for a dust bath. Need to when you have more than a few chickies wanting to bath at the same time. No tarp over it, but we have it tilted a bit AND DH drilled a buncha holes in the bottom. We used a mix of fine sand and concrete sand(?), well it's a bit bigger then fine sand. They use it.... but we still find holes around the edge of their run where they use regular old dirt to bathe in. It's funny when DS goes to *pet* one of them and a huge plum of dust rises up from them... like a mushroom cloud.

You’re not losing it (yet) I was just catching up on this thread and I saw it too. Went back and found it. It’s @Smuvers Farm pg 93
