Getting the flock out of here - a diary of a crazy chicken man

[CayuseRanch]

Any news on the adoption process?

Off to the small city half an hour away to get lights an supplies to make homes for the Coturnix.

Bernie will be dropped at the rice mill to fill twenty sacks with rice husks.

Our two musscovy hens are sitting on 36 eggs between them so duck will be on the menu soon.

Glad you got some coturnix for Mrs.OZ I have 77 coturnix eggs set and they are hatching right now. They are fun and quick little things.

I apologize for limited posting but between the internet connection and the craziest 54 hours on the island I have had on a long time, I have not had much time to wait 10 minutes for each page to load.

In 9 hours we begin our journey back to Bacolod. In 25 hours my plane departs Manila and 13 hours later I will be collecting my empty golf bag from the luggage cart at LAX.

I hate being here for such a short time but I got to swim with my kids and hug my wife. For those moments I am grateful.

Glad you got to spend some some with the Mrs. and kiddo's. Have safe travels back.

Oz you gotta get this stuff for your flock back home and/or any chicks you hatch here, this stuff is amazing. I wish I had it when my shipped chicks arrived last monday!! I lost 9 babies and then I had ordered some from amazon but it was taking too long and lost another baby yesterday, so I drove to a feed store in lancaster and they had a bottle, so I bought it. I came home gave all the blues a drop and then placed it in the waterer and within about 15-20 minutes they were all perkin up...I was shocked! 3riverschick shared this on another forum and I must say...WOW..just wow!!

it was ridiculously fast but given the choice of a quick trip versus no trip. I will do what I did.

I was a staff nurse for many years and really got used to flipping between night and day shifts. A trip like this one is a bit like that. Its actually too fast to get real jet lag. I will hit the sack in ten minutes and be up at 5:30 to go to work by 7am. This coming weekend I will catch up on sleep if Mrs Oz does not fly over.

There maybe some requirements with the adoptions that could delay her.
