Sounds about right on the tramadol. We give our 50 pound Australian Cattle Dog a half a 50 and it pretty much snows him. A quarter seemed to give him relief without too much sedation.

If I make it to March first without firing up my Brinsea, I'm going to be amazed. I need chicks. Littles. Bantams! Little Peeps. Sad day. Buried my little Lavender Orpington/Buff Orpington cross pullet today. She was undersized for her age. Never laid. Think one of the Roosters crushed her mating. She got better then yesterday she wouldn't eat. Found her dead this morning. Same as her sire. Flat on her back with her feet up. Heart? Probably. Oh well.........I need chicks...littles.....bantams.....little peeps......

Thanks. Not sure - I hope so - I'll expect a call tomorrow. I'm resigned to it being expensive, and am worried that it'll be one of those things where "handyman" stuff that they won't do needs to be done before they can get to the wires.

It is my suspicion, and my hope, that what shorted was the wiring to the can light over the decking there (which I never use), or another outdoor light (that I also never use). I'm going to ask them to find and isolate/cut off whatever the problem area is - that whole part of the house will be torn out when I remodel and turned into a garage anyway.

That's the thing that kills me - paying for repairs on a house that, in a few years, I plan to gut and rebuild. Alas, in the case of safety, it can't be helped.

Lotsa errands and chores (making up for sleeping late). Taking a little down time before starting back up again. I really should make yogurt tonight... (But I also need to bake bread - maybe I'll do it tomorrow.) This week I'm going to be trying to recreate those Starbucks Sous Vide egg bites - I have one of those things (a gift last year), and heaven knows I have enough eggs...

So does anyone know what egg color a pullet fron my green egg layer bred to my HRIR will lay?
I looked at the chart, but was unsure.

It depends. If your green egg layer has one copy of the blue egg gene, roughly 50% pullets from the cross will lay a green egg, and 50% will lay a brown egg.

If your green egg layer has two copies of the blue egg gene, all pullets will lay green eggs.
