Good morning chicken wranglers,
I woke up late had to call in and tell work I'd be late. Lucky for me I'm the boss.
I got the flock out an hour late. I had crumbles so they didn't chastise me all they did was eat. I haven't been getting many eggs lately 3 or 4 aday from 40 hens is not enough to justify their existance on my meager feed budget. The tractor supply had starter feed on sale for 9.00 for 50 # bag so I thought what the heck they need more protein. Its almost winter as Opa said. I just gotta get used to it cause there aren't gonna be any summer days for a while.Ilive in Il. but we get some cold weather, nothing like mich. though. Ispent a couple of years in Cadillac Mich. one week around Thanksgiving time and it was like the antarctic! Now when I lived in East Tenn. I was very comfortable in no shirt in the month of nov. so whats going on there?
