I just wonder if her not being flat will affect the eggs.

Maybe there are pips!!
Or she's adjusting humidity.

They're not due until Thursday. It's hot and humid today. She's panting.
I have a duct fan blowing in her. It's propped up on the OS bag in the corner.
She also has a cup of water she can drink from.

I guess the Kashmiri type goats must have a different kind of coat then; they live out on the headland at Great Orme in north Wales, normally (though they did take over the town in the lockdown, https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-52103967 ) and it rains a lot in Wales.

They may have to live in it, but I bet if they had a choice they would seek shelter!

Some of the incredible 200+ year old homes of River Row in Owego.

And the Coup de grâce. The socially conscientious mansion owners that put face masks on their stone lions.

We have a section of victorians her too but the are not 200 years old. Woodland started in the late 1800s LOL. Most old things here are from about 1850. There are some remains of an old Russian fort on the coast that might be 200 years old.

How do the chickens tolerate this weather?

Without shade and a misting system, some breeds die here at 110F. Shads temp was 107F. The breeds are likely more heat tolerant there

Brewed an afternoon pot if anyone is interested.
Frustrating day at work at mom's house. The walls over the counters are out of plane so I am working to bring them in with mud. It's taking too long to dry. I can't tile until it's planar.

I've got new issues with DHs sister. She called DH yesterday and he wandered out the door with the phone. I went out and found him looking befuddled in the passenger seat of his truck with the maintenance book in his lap. I asked if I could help and he gave the phone to me. His sister rather nastily said she wanted the VIN of his truck... and the make, model and year. She was so rude I was taken aback as I'd just seen her two days before. I've never been a fan of hers but this was a whole new level of disrespect.

I told her that I discussed DHs truck with his son because DH has it in his head that he wants to give his truck to the kids. Neither of them need it. We do as I still have to finish this house and I'm using it to bring materials to my mom's and dad's houses. I told his son that when all that was done the truck needed to be sold and the money put in DHs account to help pay for someone to stay with him when I can't as that time is rapidly approaching.
Sister told me that son was sitting right in front of her. Fine and dandy. I gave her the information as she continued to be nasty and rude. I have no idea what they are trying to cook up but they clearly have no intention of discussing anything with me. I was so upset over the entire encounter that I was up for 3 hours in the middle of the night before finally letting it go.
I did discuss my feelings about this with DH and basically said that I have enough stress in my life without having to deal with her and she will not be allowed back on this property. He can see her whenever he wants, just not here. I refuse to allow a person like that in my life. I don't need it. She means absolutely nothing to me, but does to DH. I will politely ignore her existence if I ever find myself in a situation where she is present for DHs sake. Otherwise, she'd be wise to not speak to me else she get both barrels.
Not in a million years did I ever feel as if I needed to protect DH from his own flesh and blood. But I now do...

Is her behavior worse now? There is a genetic component for Alzheimer disease and is more common in women. aggressive behavior is a symptom. Do You both have title to the pickup?

Depends on the state Ron I think,
