California - Northern

[ChickNmamma]

Moving is so depressing! We are moving to Mountain Ranch, CA about 12 miles from San Andreas. I want to comment in the Northern California section if I can. I may be considered Central CA. I dont know if its important or not.

Hmmph! I have said it before and I will say it again - Northern California is a State of Mind. I lived in Mountain Ranch for 8? 9? years. Its Northern California!

I hate moving, though it is a great time to de-clutter. Of course you can still chat with us.



C'mon winter solstice!

How did you do up there in Tahoe with the wind?

Did it really snow? Some place up thee were going to get 100mph winds....

Haven't been on in a while. We thought winter was in but it really fizzled on the snow end. The pack in my yard is 6-8 inches . However the temps are yuck . We are stable lows at 10-15 but hit a week of -10 below . AND we (by order if the cheif) had to get the serama out! In a warm spell.... 15 low... Put them with the olandsk dwarfs. I figured they were a better shot than the mean old hatchery fatties. And would you believe they're still alive living under a few choice hens!!!!!! The olandsk Roos watch them closely,
But only interrupt disturbances and are NOT aggressive. I did see senior roo put the whooping to a fatty hatchery Hen for picking on his girl but as soon as she stopped so did he ! Amazing birds!!! And the fatty is three times as large! Since the olandsk girls don't fight back I segregated them from the hatchery girls...

So I have been struggling with feeling well. Couldn't quite shake it and hello... Were expecting. That's why I'm a few thousand post behind! When I went to my midwife thinking I was 10 weeks... Nope over 14, now were at 17 weeks. Time flies !

Hope everyone is well this winter,
Flowers.

Wow and Congratulations!

Someone posted that they had temps of -27 at their place in Klamath Falls. I could not find proof of that on Intellicast. That would be very cold.
