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

'Cause it's slow on here, and I didn't have anything else to do (a bald-faced lie), I went back & read the beginning of your "my coop" section. Looks like y'all have had more than your share of fun.
I stopped posting to that thread pretty much once I made friends here. That was my way of lurking in the shadows while still contributing to the site. Instead of consolidating all my yacking and jibbish on one thread, I am now spreading in evenly across the site..:lau:gig:wee
 
Weather report:
Raining, wet, nasty, slightly chilly mixed with humidity.
I am indoors and burning up the battery on the tab.

DH is home today giving me that look. You know the look when someone is judging you w/o saying a word.
He is about to fire up the water pot smoker for a slow cook on a pork tenderloin. Rainy days makes the smoke not dissipate and stay close to the ground. Time to drive the neighbors nuts.
 
Vintage fishing pole, clip piece of wire clothes hanger bent with pair of pliers, duct tape. the stick is so long you don't even have to sneak up on them and when you snatch them place the pole on the ground and the weight of it anchors them. It would work great for your application because you probably have a long distance to reach them being under a structure.
It almost can be compared to fishing with dynamite. quick and easy.

I think I'll borrow that idea. Don't need to catch any atm, but I eventually will.
I made a snake snare out of a length of PVC, a screw, a hose clamp, and some electric wire. It worked once, failed the 2nd time, but can be modified to work again. Works a bit better than shooting them in the basement (don't ask)

I have a broken fishing pole somewhere, maybe in the shed. I'll check the next time I haul water.
 
There was just a discussion with a newbie that stated she isn't concerned about internal parasites because feeding DE takes care of internal parasites and neutralizes heavy metals.:eek:

I haven't seen a waterfall in a kiddie pool.
So the Pacuare river, the falls over the Silver Mines dam, St. Francis Millstream Gardens, Bryant Creek, Upper Buffalo River, the North Fork river double falls, or the 4' roller waves on the Missouri River 340 at night don't count - all in an open canoe.

Bummer. I imagine you searched for piles of feathers. All my birds are black so a peek out the back window will show the aftermath of disaster.



Be careful what you wish for. I called a friend in Puerto Rico when Hurricane Maria was headed there. He said he likes hurricanes to hit the island because the power outages make it very quiet and he gets his best sleep in the aftermath. 4 months later, he still has no power.
I have hyperacusis, sometimes even silence is to loud.
