Yeah, I hear you. When I woke up this morning I had the laptop on and got updated on BYC but hadn't looked out the windows yet. When I got up after that, I saw that it had rained. I had laundry out on the line too and would never have left it out if I'd guessed it was gonna rain. Course I did 3 loads yesterday so the last load wasn't dry by the time dusk fell and that's why it stayed out overnight, but still, I thought by morning it would be dry. Now I have to bring it in and dry it inside since it looks like more rain today. Still, I guess considering how little moisture we've had in the past year, we shouldn't complain too much - we need every drop!
Danz, you need to have a good ol' fashioned barn raisin'! Seriously though, if you put out the word with family and friends that you'll feed them and supply them with eating eggs in return for a day of their time helping you build your kit barn, you may be surprised how many show up.
. I'm also in Wichita, although not for too much longer. We've bought a small property outside of town and will be moving once the kids get done with school for the year. So what kinds of chicks did you order, how many, and when will they get here? Make sure you know how to upload pics because we're going to want to see some!
