RIP 1953-2021
So sorry to hear of your loss! That would be devastating! You are one dedicated chicken lady! My son is joining the Marines in the spring, so there will be more trips down your direction in our future! We will have to keep in touch!Quote:The well broke, and while I was waiting for the well guy to get the parts I had to turn my whole flock out in the yard so they could access water I was hauling in on my truck.... didnt work.
I have to pass the temptation. In the spring I hope to get the coop moved 75 feet east to where the water lines will be plumbed instead of having to rely on hundreds of feet of hose. At that time I will start up with Guinea Fowl again.... My horse Katee Wuvvs her Guineas..... she stands by their enclosure all day listening to them. Then I want Sumatras.... Black skinned birds by the way.... LOL. And then I will collect a few here and there because they need homes or are just too danged cute....
When I am done the coop will be more of a poultry house. Seven partitions and a work feed area. About 24 x 24 feet. And Yes I am planning on a Bachelor partition.

Yes.... you know that whole door closing another opens deal. I cant obsess about the past only learn from it, and move on.
Oorah.... to your son. San Diego is a big military town.... Navy, Marines, Coast Gaurd, even some Airforce. Is He doing boot camp at Camp Pendledton? Right now I am sitting under the flight path for Miramar.... When the Marines took it over from the Navy we started getting to see some of the BIG aircraft... Harriers, C130's. and the ever present Heliocopters of all sizes. When a C130's go over it rattles the dishes.... LOL
In a past life I worked in Aerospace as a Draftsman and eventually a Tool Designer.... for the big stuff like the C17 and eventually for tools for jet engine repair. So I love those big flyin things.... LOL.
