Yup. I thought we would get some rain yesterday but no such luck. First it rains every day and then no rain at all.

Hi Everybody. Thanks for the texts and PM's. My hands and arms are both bad and I'm finally getting to a pain management clinic for stellate ganglion nerve blocks to stop pain signals and improve circulation. I like my Dr's and therapists and pharmacy but workmans comp is just a big joke. Thinking of all of you and your birds, family etc. I'm just on too many meds and my blonde polish brain is now completely fried but I did manage readback yesterday. I did ok at my serama show considering I didn't think i would make it! reserve in Cock, hen and pullet and 8/10 birds I showed scored a 75 or above out of 100 which is considered show quality. One bird did not show and the other scored a 72. So pretty happy No more shows for several month and no incubators for the rest of the year-only broodies on select eggs. Trying to take it easy and praying a lot. Coyotes got most of my LF and just added some new pullets in the run and traps in the woods. Lots of love to you all. Miss my BYC Family
