It's been very windy out there today. I did get a 1st white pullet egg out of one of the Silver Grey Dorking's though, and I was out there when she layed it.

Yes! We took our dogs out for a walk and the dust and debris blowing everywhere made us come home earlier than usual haha. Although I do hope the wind delays some of the summer heat coming our way

I keep checking the radar forecast and the potential rain keeps going farther away

2 of my 6 pack of boy's (Rooster and cockerel) might be getting rehomed soon. The cockerel is to be picked up on Friday afternoon.

Rain here last night! All our rain barrels over-flowed.

Still drizzling off and on here. The ducks are in heaven.

I didn't see any real rain in the gauge but the ground is wet in Chino Valley. The neighbors clocked the wind at 45mph yesterday. I thought it might be more than that as I watched a little birdie hanging on for dear life out my window and dogs were hunkered down with me inside. Clouds building in distance today. I think the wind stressed the hens from laying - only 13 eggs yesterday (20 the day before).

I have a group of 8 Silver Grey Dorking's (7 pullet's, 1 cockerel) that lay white egg's, and 2 White Rock pullet's (that are already laying) that lay brown egg's available if someone need's more laying hen's.

You guys in Chino Valley get more wind I think. We had some out on the highway, I was driving to Phoenix yesterday and a big rig did not make one of the downhill curves, it was down to 1 lane just past the rest stop. We took my neighbor's giant SUV, you could feel the wind hit it. I do not think it is any better in that wind than my Smart Car.
