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

[ozexpat]

We finally got out first guinea egg yesterday.

On the hatching front we have six Turkey poults doing well in the Hatcher among with some Pekin and Rouen ducks.

The goose egg is still just hanging out.

Candling in the morning.

We're so totally off topic by now....

Anyway.

We have a 10x20 building stuffed with well... junk. It just really needs organizing. It was a pay-to-own, with as rule that you can't alter it until it's paid off. So we never installed shelving or anything and it all just piled up in there. Once we can get in and put up some shelving... make a little something something for all the scraps of wood... we'll have room to spare!

Totally planning on a nice work bench to include the table saw.. maybe a vice grip... something where we can work on projects. It'll be nice. I'll also make an area to hatch/brood chicks and start seedlings, but we'll need to insulate it before we can do that, or temp swings will likely be too great.

That's what takes most time right now, setting up a work area and putting it all away again. It would be nice to just walk into the building, cut your pieces of wood and be done with it. And having everything organised..... so often we're looking for a box of screws we KNOW we have, but where we put it.. uh, no idea

yes yes yes i thought the same till i figured i would just put a few birds in the far end of my shop

they now have 1/2 the building

by next year they will probably have all of it

I think finding this thread when it was already 230 pages long was a bad thing for me. Now that I am caught up I get impatient waiting for the next update!!

Jeeze... I found it when it was well over 6600 posts, and as you can figure out since I'm quoting you, I'm less than 1/2 way through it at this point! So want to go to the end and peek, but as everyone has probably figured out at this stage, it's the adventure that is the "heart" of everything... So I sit here and keep reading. I follow most links provided, so that slows me down a bit... I can be easily sidetracked at times... you know follow one link, then another, then another, and before you know it, you're completely off on a tangent someplace other than where you were originally headed. I find that I get a little peeved at times when I try to follow a link that might be "important" or "valuable" and it's no longer there. <sigh> Oh well, such is life. OK, now to continue MY journey
