I finally took the time to put together the bottles of vanilla extract.

Whatever will I do with the excess vodka?

Good Morning All,

Having tall jumble cup of tea.
Today, according to the weather report no more rain, but strong wind. The southern state will be getting the horrid weather, I pray that the rain and the wind just go out to sea.

@DobieLover your chicken housing is so spacious, sunshine, and nice. How many chickens do you have? That is a handsome white feather rooster, is he Fabio son?

I am thinking of the feeder in your chicken run, so easy and less waste, that feeder saves money from stop food spillage on the ground. We are getting that feeder.

I need to do some modification for my chicken living area, to have chicken living area like your, it will be done by the professional and that is expensive. Anything that higher than 2.2m will need council permit.

Those Vanilla extract bottles look so pretty like those in the shop.

The sun is out now, I will be spending a lot of time in the garden looking at my chicken areas and thinking...how/where/what for changes to take place.

Have a great day all.

How many chickens do you have?

17 hens, 7 pullets, 7 cockerels. 5 boys will be hitting the road this fall.

That is a handsome white feather rooster, is he Fabio son?

No. They are all pure Ameraucanas.
Fabio had stopped breeding the hens at least 3 months before he died.

We are getting that feeder.

I made it from 4" PVC pipe.

Those Vanilla extract bottles look so pretty like those in the shop.

Thanks! I'm giving most of them out as gifts at Christmas.

What a day. We extracted the honey. It took about 4 hours, start to finish, plus a one-hour intermission. Hubby went out to play frisbee with Freya.

And she ran off. It took an hour for her to come back. My throat hurts from yelling. I have a huge deer fly bite on my shoulder. Freya ate something that made her throw up. We don't know where she went, and we were scared out of our minds.

She will be on leash and not be playing frisbee for the foreseeable future.

Freya baby, you scared the crap out of us.

We did get 10 quart jars of honey. And sore shoulders from cranking the handle on the extractor. Hubby is thinking he might be able to hook up his drill to the spindle. That would be a HUGE improvement.

Thank you.
4" PVC pipe, I will seek that out, if the weather is dry we will head out for that.
Handsome Fabio, I still have this imagine of Fabio looking at his kids.
31 chickens, the housing still spacious.
Awesome Christmas Gift Vanilla Extract, they look so pretty, do mention you made those, not at the shop.

I know exactly how you feel. Like they just shaved 10 years off your life.
Have you ever considered investing in a remote E-collar? Every dog I've had has been trained to one with the exception of Fuji. They all go berserk when they see their collars because they know it equals freedom. And they also know they have to listen when I call them or suffer the consequences. Some are more bullheaded than others!

 

[Sally PB]

I don't know if hubby would go for that. I might ask, just to find out if he's changed his mind.
