Good goals... would love to help, but...

My only currently laying BCM is infertile, blech... my CCL hens are with a Wheaten Sulmtaler roo right now, will be moving them soon but he's been busy so will be a while for pure CCL's... and just moved my Ameraucana girls in with their roo... so only have crosses right now, except my OEGB's, lol...

I also visited Mrs Oz' old aunt who is in mild dementia. I am tasked with accompanying her to the Philippines. We depart on March 30 (

On to it....

Hopefully the girls keep laying like they are now

I was hoping to post that we cracked the 100 chick barrier today but 2 orders asked to delay shipping.

We have 80 leaving the farm. Not a bad fortnight.

Mrs Oz is giving the pig a prostaglandins analog as I type. It takes 20-24 hours to induce. by midnight sundaleft coast time I hope we have piglets.


I ended up in the urgent care today with conjunctivitis - my eye was glued shut this morning. I am having trouble seeing the screen LOL
