HI CRAZY!

DID YOU HACK INTO MY MEDICAL RECORDS??? I thought there was Doctor/patient privacy laws? Hmmmmm.
Cats out of the bag...

its what i get for free ranging
i was looking at them the other day trying to figure out which ones i was going to butcher
i guess my mind has been made up for me
too bad i dont get to eat them

and i lost most of the birds i was going to show this weekend

One minute I was ranting about lock down on my incubator and the need to fill the time from not having to hand turn the eggs anymore left me with a void to fill.
The same day I started bottle feeding an injured piglet.
BE CAREFUL what you squawk about.. Karma is around the corner and always listening.

Just like Google!

Naw. It was evident just from the glazed grin on your face all the time.

September prices were the lowest of the year at our local auction. Feeder Lambs between 32 and 58 lb went for $2.15 a pound. Slaughter Lambs buzzwole in hair between 65 and 128 lbs went for a $1.70 a pound.

A neighbor farmer took 3/4 his swine stock to auction 6 mo's ago. Lost his rear end on the stock but helped him by not dumping more money into them with continued high feed costs. That's why we breed and stock in intervals.
Market prices are rock bottom compared to operation costs.
No money to made at the auctions unless you are the Auction company.

I have a feeling a Chippendale dancer would still be worthless to me. What good is he to me...unless he has carpentry skills for building new coops? I can't help but imagine he would cost me more than he's worth with the upkeep.

However the dunking bird will have me laughing for months!! And those laughs are free!

Good points all

Was it my Drivers License photo that gave me away???

This is my first time hatching but I'm pretty sure my humidity is way too high. I'm at day 6, the humidity has stayed 60-70% most of the time it's finally gotten down to 49% but then I removed the second red plug for oxygen and humidity is climbing again! Checked the weather and on this bright sunny day the humidity is 79%. I live by the coast but other than a few hot days in the summer it doesn't really feel humid so I never realized. What can I do to decrease the humidity? I spent a lot of money to have these hatching eggs shipped I'd hate to have them all drown!
