Definitely ok to be weird! Look at us two!

This is the before and after show, year and a half later.

Those aren't weird, those are really nice photos!!! Well, it is funny the horse has almost the exact same expression in each one...and it is a funny one....

This is for you 3acres. Doesn't she look impressed?
My mini poodle Chloe after a haircut and eyebrow trim

She'd go perfect with your drag costume.

...She does look impressed!!!....lol. I'm seeing a cry for help in her expression and a prayer for long lasting drought...

. Chloe would go GREAT with the 3acresanna look and would compliment the total package lovely as I hit the rabbit and swine show circuits.....

Cool costume, I only rode them in races, never got to do the costume thing

The costumes are fun.

I never did the races. I bet that's fun too.

I love this thread...pretty pictures and a ton of laughs! What more could ya want at the end of the day?

My chores got rained out today. (Yay!!)

Actually, I WAS doing chores ...okay, okay, I was really just watching the brand new baby turkeys I brought home this morning get settled into their new digs when I looked up and saw this:


Then, I jumped up like a mad woman and started racing around to get the horses, hogs, goats, deer, chickens, ducks, turkeys, cats, and dogs fed before I got drenched. I managed that, and tried to squeeze in some garden harvesting, but I got drenched anyway. The storm hit and literally flooded all my pastures, yard, garden...everything. What a turd floater! It was awesome!!
We got 2" of rain in under an hour. Love it.





For the longest time I couldn't see the ground anywhere! (I had to steal this shot from a video, so it's not
so clear.)


I had no idea there was rain in the forecast. I guess a proper farmer would check on these things.

Note to self: check the weather forecast everyday with your morning coffee.

That's a lot of rain in less than an hour.

Thanks! I really like the black baldy calves...especially against the green grass. I took some pictures of him today.

Looks like this baby is on an adventure!

Love the color and the pattern on it's face.

Those aren't weird, those are really nice photos!!! Well, it is funny the horse has almost the exact same expression in each one...and it is a funny one....

I think we both look totally ridiculous.

But I guess everyone is their own worst critic when it comes to pictures. I know I am! lol

Not to far at all. We lived in CC for two years before coming back up to NB.

We got a fair amount. Think I read on FB about 2.5 inches and that was this afternoon. I know my horses are now filthy, and all my chickens feeders had to be dumped. But I won't complain. We need rain, because we need some good hay crops.

I love NB. I'm harboring a secret desire to sell this place in a few years and find a nice chunk of land on the river up there. I've got one more kid to get to graduation, then I'm FREE! lol.
My horses are filthy, too and I've got to go clean all the chicken, turkey and duck feeders today. The rain did cause quite a mess, but I'm thankful for it anyway. And I hear ya on the hay...sheesh! Expensive and crappy is all we can find!

Thanks! I can't wait for the drakes to get their feathers they are suppose to have!

No need to be ashamed...lol. All the more reason to always get the craziest pj's at the store when needing to buy some....

. My feet got so black last year, that I had a hard time ever getting them clean...lol. I use some kind of porous stone thing now and it works great. I'm not sure it is suppose to be used on human skin....I think it's for cleaning bathtubs???....lol.

Beautiful sunflower photos! Yeah, I've heard people cuss them up here....hard to get rid of??? I like them! Real neat to look at. My neighbors have really tall ones by their garden and there is a huge field of them south of me planted on purpose....very neat to see those...they aren't very tall it seems.

I think you're referring to a pumice stone. And yeah, they sell 'em to clean toilets with, I believe, but they also sell 'em to clean feet! Bare footing is too dangerous around here. We have 48 Mesquite trees on the place and they drop some huge thorns that are incredibly painful to step on. And if the Mesquite thorns don't get you, the Cat Claw or Huisache or cactus or jumping cactus will!

F, are you getting hit again today? We have had 3 inches since sun up. sorry crappy cell picture. Hey you don't have any SLW or BLRW do you????

 

[AccidentalFarm]

AF, are you getting hit again today? We have had 3 inches since sun up. sorry crappy cell picture. Hey you don't have any SLW or BLRW do you????

No, none yet today. Forecast is showing thunderstorms from 1pm through tomorrow morning, so I guess your rain will be mine soon.

I have 2 SLW pullets. I'd love to find a roo to keep them company, and no, I kept trying to get BLRW this year, but had no luck. I've got a slew of other breeds, though, most including roo's in case I get incubator fever again. LOL. Are those the only breeds you're looking for?
I tried to get BC Marans this year also and ended up with one roo and no hens, so I'm still looking for those. I also need a cream legbar roo. I think I'm going to try and breed a few olive eggers out this year with the BC roo over the legbar hens.

Isn't the rain great?? I'm so thrilled we're getting so much!

 

[showbarnmom]

I'm excited for the rain, just sucks I've got two low water crossings on either side of our gate! Lol

I will pm you to discuss chickys

These are hilarious! Love it!!

Ok, that's one serious snake killer dog there!

Nice flock protector.

I love your peafowl!

Can you send me a couple of those really colorful ones??!

I don't know the name of the color. We are looking for a peahen to add to our existing pair, and the farm owner would like a second pair.
