Three eggs in three days..... Hmmmmmm..... I think there are more pullets laying than just #41. Too consistent for one immature pullet......

Hi all,

I've only read about the last three months worth of posts. Nice to see how our state's chicken interest has grown.

I'm living vicariously through you all, as I no longer have any cickens. Had a change of career, to Over The Road truck driver that precludes having a house let alone a yard with chickens in it. All to the good though as I anxiously wait for the day when I can retire to a new house, yard full of home grown produce and runs full of animals.

Coloradogal - all those self sufficient things you do are superb and I would give anything to be able to spend a weekend, week, month, whatever, with you to learn all your secrets!

Everyone take care. I'll try to check in on you from time to time when I have internet out on the road.




I've had one of these for years and absolutely love it, Radish sprouts (my personal favorite), pea sprouts, bean sprouts... mmmm good for me and the chickies!

I have been doing sprouts lately, I found a great little sprouting container that works well.

Did I mention that we brought Beth home on Saturday afternoon?

No, lol............I went to visit her today. I think the guy that now has her room thought I was a little weird.

But it is GREAT news that she's out.

When you get a weekend and can come down, let me know and I'll get some people together to go through whatever it is they want to learn. I enjoy having people over and spending that time in the kitchen creating new things.

Oops! Sorry! She would have enjoyed your visit!

Well, maybe. I'm not exactly lively entertainment. And no need to apologize. I think getting your wife/mother home after a long hospital stay is good cause for a certain excitement and 'bundling' in. BYC shouldn't necessarily be your first priority. Altho, maybe second or third.

LOL.
Spent some time out in the hen house today, adding additional bedding and watching the flock social order. Too funny. #9 has the position as boss hen, but she and about 7 others are part of #11's harem.

I am a canner too!
I love making my own recipes and knowing what is in them! Also my garden gives me too much to enjoy at one time, so I enjoy seeing if we can go to March on what I have stocked up on.
Tonight I made 10 quarts of pear-sauce,
I've also made cherry berry jam, plum jum jam, vanilla spiced pear butter
pickles, and salsa too!
