I tyed my ex up once. blind folded. gagged , then I went to work. He wasnt there when I got home. Never did ask him who untied him or if he got loose by himself and he never told it.

I've got chiggers on my feet so bad. I've been wearing sandals (best shoes to keep my feet from hurting and great for wet weather) and there are bites under the straps across my toes.

Yikes! Are those the things that dig under your skin?

it's been this way for over a week

do you have any vit. E ?

I stood in that dang store for 5 min. just standing there trying to remember how to make it. I remembered heavy cream and that was it. Knew you were going to the farm so I said forget it.

just whipping cream , sugar and a little vanilla

NOPE I have no vitamin's

 

[campingshaws]

you have any problems in your heat with them getting enough water from those ? I thought about buying some but wasnt real sure about them.

You have to have enough for your flock size. I think it's one nipple per four birds? Maybe three. Either way, that's why the babies need one more.

When it's bad hot I open the coop and they go into the woods. There's a spring back there. And they dig under the straw and wallow in the sand.

I prefer the nipples because the water stays cleaner, but you have to be extra careful because any debris will lock up the nipple. I've had to work on a few that were stuck and no water coming out. Remember that's how I lost a couple hens last spring?

@jane s chickens
My pear trees wont bloom. I have 3 . 2 of them being over 5 yrs. One is fairly new. 2 different varietys .Bought at the same time /size as apples and am getting apples for 2 yrs.

Pears generally bloom earlier than apples, so your cold weather could be Messing up the blooms.

So as Rod and I are working on the walls the youngsters (yaks) came over to see what we were doing and Rod managed to talk me into raising the price on Hailey to $3500.00 now there are 2 of us who really don't want her to go.

I couldnt use them winter and I have open pans for summer long as the babies are big enough. Its the not yet babies I use the heavy waters for .
