One of the projects I'm working on today. Frame is from fence that fell down. The rooster and eggs are from prizes won at the 2016 hal. Eggs won't be fixed to frame. Still using them as salt and pepper shakers.
Not finished yet but close enough to show. @Cynthia12

Sorry you have become ill. I hope the dog is trained before the turkey gets him.My daughters dog, doesn't hurt the chickens, but chases the chickens/turkeys.... my big male turkey's starting to get fed up with it. I'm going to have to get him a shock collar (the dog, not the turkey) to get him to stop before the turkey decides to stomp the little dog into the ground.
It all started when he played this chase game with my EE astrid. He'd chase Astrid, then Astrid would turn around and chase him back.... he thinks it's this great fun game... but astrid's the only chicken who liked playing it with him. He hasn't figured that out yet.
And, someone gave me a stomach flu thing, I feel like i'm going to die. My husband's on animal duty tonight.
Chick sales doing good?Got babies hatching today. Lots of them.
Also, supper is smoking away on the smoker. One of our family favorites, smoked meatloaf.

What? She does have a nicely developed medial suspensory ligament.
So glad she's doing better!!!
The bottom part of it will be on a base of firebrick, and I also have an old grill mat hanging around somewhere. I went down the rabbit hole on YouTube last night looking at rocket bread ovens and pizza ovens. There are a couple ways you can do it. But it's more work than I really want to put into it. I bake in a cast iron pot, though, so I might be able to improvise something with a platform, a deflector, and a dome of some sort. I've just got too much to do to play around with that at the moment. (The rocket stove on the other hand is literally stacking bricks and you're done.)
I like to put them on in the house and listen to them while puttering, one after the other - I know them so well I don't even have to watch...
Yuuuuuuup.
Everything's bigger in Texas. Unfortunately. :/
This is exactly what I did when I needed to wash the yolk off of my shipped eggs.
I did some reading about this - apparently there's some controversy about it not being very good for the bees... But I can't remember why at the moment.
Gentle hugs and healing vibes for you, Sally.
Again?! (sigh)
SHe's a sweetheart!!!
I am so very, very sorry - I remember you talking about JJ and how much you love him.
FWIW/future reference, the reason vancomycin is prohibited is for the protection of human health - so it's banned in any food animal/agricultural animal. (It's an important antibiotic for patients who have really serious infections, and if there is too much use of it int eh environment, more bugs get resistant to it and it'll stop working for people. I don't think it would hurt him, the prohibition is because of the human use of the antibiotic. (The entire problem with a group of very resistant bacteria arose entirely due to use of glycopeptides in agriculture in Europe in the 1980s...)
Thinking of you - very very sorry.
I'm inside taking a break and having a PB&J. I've been clearing parts of the yard for the new growout tractors, and taking out saplings, and hauling wood around, and having a very special personal relationship with my JawSaw and my wood chipper. But I'm rehydrated and the sandwich is consumed, so I'd better get back out there - I also have chicken chores to do before it gets dark. I'll be back later this evening.
