Banty! I love your pics
My new ducks almost eat from my hand tonight. Making progress! New coop progress slowed up though . . ground too hard to dig.

Merci. Lighting was terrible but I made the best of it.

Aww, which ones have you picked out as mine to steal?

Too hard? Frozen?

Guess you can steal any one you want if you can find me! Come and get it!

Good luck with that. Lol I've probably told you enough you could get pretty close. . but I think you have too many rug rats to make that kind of trip

If I wanted to spend a lot of time, I could likely find your town, at least. Don't worry, there's no way I'm hauling 2 cars packed full all the way down there just to get calls from an unknown address that I couldn't even take back across the border anyway.

Well, last Sunday my friend started trying to move a bull we had gotten into a smaller pen to try to get in the alley while I was letting the other cows out. He charged her and found her into a cattle panel which she hit face first. I had to go in to distract him and get her out. Rank jerk charged me, and I waited till he was about two feet away and dove rolling right. I then got to play ring around the Rosey (creep feeder) while she drug herself out. Then I got to practice my sprinting. I got away with just a bruised shoulder as the ground is harder mats I could not be a clown. There is something creepy about the look on a big bulls face as they charge you when they are not going to be waved off and want to get you.
She was in the hospital all week so since she has two cats needing meds twice a day I was up going to her place by 5 and then working my 12-13 hours, then back to her place for horses, goats including milking, dogs and cats, and coordinating other stuff. It was a long week.
I would rather have been chatting.

Oh my, I hope you are both recovery well. You're a good friend. Does the bull have a nose ring?

Me? Up to something? Never.

Made progress on my coop.... 2nd door is ready to hang and more trim is up.

Nice, where's the snow?

The only real exposure I had to metrics was at the gas pumps. They were reading only metrics for a while, but there was such a public uproar that they reverted to thye system that has worked just fine for us for 200 years.

I believe speed limit signs on the interstates briefly listed the limit in mph and kph.
