Coffee's ready...

[math ace]

Thanks for the good wishes - - - fever has finally broke. I had been running a low grade one for a couple of days, but last night it pushed up to 102. I have spent all day sleeping

There is hope that tomorrow I will be good as new. I get the flu shot every year, but it is still possible to get a minor / weaker flu. I think that is what has happened. I got the REAL Full Blown Flu one year and that was awful ! ! After that, I am first in line for a flu shot.

I am a teacher, so I am exposed to the germs more than most. NEVER thought I would get something like this at the end of the school year. It is over 90 outside. Who would get sick now ? ? ?

NEVER did get that coffee, I went back to sleep instead .

Good afternoon everyone. Life is crazy for me right now, very bumpy so I'll not be on a lot. I miss you all a lot and sharing the morning coffee with yous. I am with ChickyLaura, I think I may have too many chickens! We've got 8 little ones in the coop right now and I'm not sure how they all will get housed eventually. On a sad note, we lost the one that was born during the February snow storm, that was Blizzard. It was my fault but I guess I'm not too upset because it was a rooster. I came out to a trail of feathers one morning, no body, just feathers. Poor thing. Sissy, you sure are a busy person with all your chickies it sounds like! I hope your DH is continuing to improve. Karl, I like all your interesting events, keep on posting them. How are the ducks and goose doing? Math Ace, I hope you are feeling much better soon. It's weird getting sick with hot weather outside. I remember a summer I was sick for a whole week with the summer flu. It was horrible, I didn't eat for a whole entire week and the heat made it even worse! Yuk. I really hope your illness does not drag on. Good luck. Well, hope yous all have a good weekend! Talk to yous when I can!!!

good afternoon chicken wranglers
lost the cow saved the calf so far. The little bull has to be tube fed because he is premature we are hoping for the best.

 

[Kismet]

Oh Karl, I am so sorry about the loss of your cow. In addition to being a friend, she was of great value. I hope the calf makes it.

Bull calf is bottle feeding very well. Rendering plant is picking up carcass today.I'll post a picture tomorrow he is black with a white belt around the middle like a belted galloway but i got him and the mother at a sale barn so I dont know the actual breed. Gotta go get more coffee and work my bunns off today.God Bless!

Good morning chicken wranglers
ben really busy all week .One of our customers had an outage and we were in deep all week.I can relax now.
The little heffer"now I know she is not a bull because she peed all over the drive right in front of me. Shameless hussy !
My daughter swears the vet said "he was in the barn" so for the first day we all believed she was a bull.
But the girl is nursing well now. We keep her in the basement in a makeshift stall and take her out on a daily basis for sun and fresh air.
She is as hit with the kids and the adults.
So now we are up to a horse and a mule 5 cows, 21 CR's 33 pullets 25 blue andys "chicks" 6 turkeysChicks 2 gozzlings, 5 ducklings,5 adult ducks,and the gaudian goose that thinks the adults are her clutch.
Oh and maisy jo, the dog who is going to be bred to a blue healer this weekend!
What a large collection.
Sissy good to hear from you.

Good morning chicken wranglers
Long hot intersesting and busy weekend.Buried one of the cows. I guess he died in the storm Fri. night. He was a steer so I'm only out 176.00 but it is still a loss.I'll have the kids plant pumpkins over him so he serves a good purpose even in death.The little bottle fed calf is still going well.Well ya'll enjoy your coffee and have a great day.
