Granny's gone and done it again

[Granny Hatchet]

I have had partys where the parents just open the door and toss their kids in .. They come in swinging a baseball bat like the whole house was a pinata . Terrible. I was not going to let my kids do without parties like I did so I put up with it.

My humidity is showing 51 now so I am going with it and temp still showing 102 but thats not top of eggs but top of wire basket so I dont think they are that warm either. Day 18 , No pips.

Well. Productive morning...got my shortlist for hedging between the neighbor's fence and the chicken run down to eleven plants.

Yes I'm crazy. We have a chain link fence but I want to a) reinforce that a bit with deer netting since hubs won't let me do hardware cloth so my chickens aren't idiots and stick their heads through the chain link) and I want to do a shrubbery bordering that so it a) hides netting and b) blocks the neighbor's dogs view and c) gives the girls some
Shelter and shade. They don't have much for that right now...need to get on that before it gets really hot.

We had a lantana hedge at the old place that sparkles liked to lay in....so that's in the running since the girls mostly left it alone. Rosemary I know they also generally leave alone...so many choices.

Will gardenia grow where you are? That's a favorite around here. And it's an evergreen! And the flowers smell THE BEST. Azaleas are also dense evergreens. I was surprised to see you say lantana!

We are not doing the piñata , I would rather just throw candy on the ground and let them get it. I don't like the piñata plus three year olds really can't swing the bat hard enough.

That sounds good.

chickens fed, dinner over, been working on the background. Its slow going . waiting on paint to dry is the worst. I thought I heard a chick earlier but probably wishful thinking. Havent heard anything since. I usually have pips on day 18 and some times a chick. I got nada.

Its too quiet ..
