Granny's gone and done it again

[Granny Hatchet]

Yes, we have a small flock of 9 we are expanding to about 20 this year. The eggs are on day 10! Our coop is big enough, but part of it needs to be updated so we are expanding it also.

The nausea with the pain is so bad. I can take pain.. but when it adds nausea I just cant move! thats when I always end up sleeping through the pain. I'm glad that part is done! Now DONT PUSH IT and the pain will get better too.

That's very sweet of you to say, thank you.My son also sleeps thru pain or illness and I have no idea how y'all can do that. I have chronic pain. I am on pain pills and they also give me meds for the nausea.
I used to love incubating. It was my favorite part of being a chicken tender.

I cant seem to help it, large pain just puts me to sleep. As a teen i would fall asleep in all my classes one day a month, or be sent home. It was ridiculous, everyone knew my cycle lol. I cant do painpills, they make me too nauseous to eat, and give me horrible nightmares. With every surgery ect i have had (there have been many unfortunately) i only take the pain meds for 1/3 or less of the time they prescribe. I would rather eat lots of ginger, arnica and tumeric and deal with mildish pain. As a side effect i can feel everything that might reinjure me so i tend to take it slower and heal better. I dont even like to take an excedrin unless i absolutely cant function. Have you looked into arnica pills or castor oil? They can be shockingly effective.

It's my first time incubating, I'm very excited, but also nervous I'm going to mess it up! We borrowed the incubator, and only get one shot. So far we are at 23/24 growing. We will see. Also set my broody with eggs last night, very excited about that too.

I miss incubating. Still have the incubators. Plan to give several to a friend, if she can ever get down here. Her vehicles are notoriously unreliable.

Vehicle problems can be very annoying. I grew up with constant car problems. I have been very greatful for our relatively easy going cars we have had as an adult. They run well, need minor fixes, or die completely lol. Best kind!

Also.. you could give one to me!
Jk, i would like to get one though. We are hoping to use broodies after this year, so i guess we don't need it.

I still have mine as well. If your like me you will want to keep a couple of the better ones in hope of some day being able to hatch again. My fridgabator is my favorite.

We get raw milk down the road, but of course we have to buy it. I would love to do somelike that, i wonder if there is something like that near me? Of course, I have 5 kids under 10, I cant leave them to go milk somewhere. I can leave them in the house while I go out back though.

My brother has a dairy and has a lot of neighbors coming to get milk..I can't tolerate milk protein anymore. I want to try some stronger probiotics again. But they are so expensive. They were helping.. Just cost prohibitive.
