EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

[Wickedchicken6]

I was out enjoying myself (well me and two dogs) at the lake, then received call Monday afternoon to come back to the house as the little barn expansion was going to start. So that's pretty much done now, the floor will be poured next week, then it will be done. Well tomorrow a couple neighbors are coming over with track hoes and bobcat to work on a little water diversion.

That sounds excellent!

I'm happy that at least 6 are legal...but what a pain. What does a few hens hurt? Nothing. Some people just have to be more difficult. That would be frustrating.

I was given a week to get down to 6. I had to process them and since I work full time, really only have weekends for stuff like that.

It was a lot of work! Of course I now have a freezer full of stewing hens

 

[mlm Mike]

Mike! You've been missed!

What have I missed?

@Farmer Connie I am glad to hear that it is something relatively minor even if it is totally frustrating because it's due to incompetence. on all the stress.

 

[Lazy Farmer]

Connie! I'm glad you went to see about it! At least you can get that taken care of before it got worse. Thank Bob for me.

He has the smug look with I told you so written all over it.
I usually hate that face but this time I guess he earned it.

Awwww. I wouldn't be very good with something like that. That would be hard.

I am fine.. thx all. I have an infection in my jaw from a tooth that was pulled and they left a root behind. 2 mon ago?
taking cephalexin anti b's and when the infection is gone they will pull out the root. that does explain the sinus bloat I was having lately. I wrote it of as allergies. chalk one up for the spouse I suppose. They said it could have been dangerous if I would of ignored it. We called my dentist who pulled it, he says he will take it out no charge.. what a nice guy right? not charge for a service he didn't complete.. oh brother.
I have done so much laying around that my back is sore. I can't wait to get this behind me.
My cell phone battery went ka-put, my oven died, incubator died, waterpump in vehicle w/o, Hurricane wrecked my farm up and now a incomplete dentist...
I need a vacation from the drama
hell's bells oh wells..

It is great that they found the problem! You can lose part of you jaw to infections at the tooth root level. Folks with heart problems can have heart issues too

Um....us?

I was meaning we've noticed your absence. ...

 

[DwayneNLiz]

Yes. But it runs in the family so it never went back to normal as soon as had our son. I made it to 2012 before I started with medication. I know now my body was sensitive to the sugar even though it didn't register as such. My darn system...lol.

i have the real one

...he probably has.

I rushed dh to emergency myself when he ended up with pulmonary embolism/s a few days after his knee surgery figuring it was clots or a heart attack.
I don't let him forget it either... What?
