Good afternoon everyone!

Brought another freshly brewed pot to warm us up a bit.

We have hurricane warnings for the night and tomorrow, but the winds already started to almost blow us down this afternoon.
Well, and amidst of it all and totally unfazed, one of my pullets finally laid her first egg at exactly 23 weeks and 4 days of age: nicely rounded and olive coloured, weighing 52 g.

Going to candle my eggs for the first time 20 eggs in the incubator should all hatch by the 7 or 8 ...

In GERMANY??? I didn't think hurricanes got anywhere near that far inland.

Why wouldn't we have hurricanes in Germany too?

Because you are pretty far inland from the warm Atlantic Ocean where they normally form. And don't they usually start as a low in the eastern Atlantic and become hurricanes as they cross to the west? I never considered that they would cross back across the North Atlantic and still have enough warm water to keep them going by the time they get to Europe.

They USUALLY blow out not too long after they exit the warm sea waters that feed them. Then decrease in intensity as they continue across land. At least they do here in the USA.

The past 3 days brought winds from Africa with higher temperatures, but now they blow from the English Channel region.

We see that here in weather. The winds that blow can change the tempature here inland.

gathering kindling today

I got a couple more buckets of kindling. Freya thinks I'm being mean because I don't want to share my sticks.

I tried to explain they were to help keep her warm, but she couldn't get past the "stick" part.
Silly puppy.
