[Lazy Farmer]

Stroke, stroke, stroke. My arms are getting tired.
"How high's the water, Momma"?
"Three feet high and rising"
"How high's the water, Poppa"?
"Four feet high & rising"

Hello, walls

The latest birds. Chicks were part of a 100% hatch. The quail is a lone chick that survived some rather careless incubation practises, involving pipping in 28% humidity. I have more chicks hatching Friday, then I am done for the year.

ETA: well, kind of done. I have one more batch that someone asked me to hatch for them.

Where'd you come from all of a sudden? Thought you'd gone the way of Sally.

Never. I'm still on here near daily; I just don't have much to say.

Bubbles with not much to say! Why does that not sound even remotely possible?

To be fair, I also have a ton of plates spinning, so I don't have enough time to get into a lengthy conversation. Maybe once the weather turns hot I'll be here more, since there are very few things urgent enough to warrant venturing out of the house in 80* weather.
