Big babys are in the serama coop and littles in the big brooder. all 21 of them. 7 to the serama coop. all pullets . Too early to tell sex on the 21 littles Lots of coco pops . so 28 total newbies but as soon as I figure out roos They will go.

Worker said he will borrow my weed whip to do some weeding at his house then weed whip some for me. I dont really like that. Its mostly new but what do I say? He mowed for me today. Hope he dont mess it up .

Tell him if he messes it up he buys a new one. What a cheapskate he shouldjust buy one.

What???

Twist how old was crazy Sheila ?

Oh dang twist. Huge hugs.

Commute home wasn’t as bad as I feared. Only doubled my normal time. Normal route was closed, alternate was also closed since some dingbat in a semi trailer thought he could make it. (TLDR he didn’t he got stuck) so had to go alternate route number three...which involved going way far south then coming back up. Oh well. Made it.

He got up at 2 am , so traffic was light.

I bet it was! Probably made it through Hartford before traffic time. NYC must have been a bitch though.

Think I will charge the partnership a little extra for that. And brother's actually suggested that the partnership "buy me dinner"

You had to spend time dealing with a legitimate business need. No reason you can't be paid for your time in some fashion.

Lunchstrocity. Not a repeat. Sigh

Gee can they make it look any different on the box than the looking reality?

Crazy Sheila is dead.

Oh Twist Clearly something still going on, hard to know what it was. Really sorry you lost her.

Twist how old was crazy Sheila ?

Same age as her 1/2 sister's, Enola and Granny. 2011 models so I guess 7 JUST really entering her Prime

 

[twisted-acres-farm]

I suspect a possible twin still, BUT Sheila was to bloated for anyone being willing to "open her up" 100* heat will do that. So will be a repeat of Enola and wait until nature's clean up crew does their job and then see if there is a tiny skull inside her.

Oh and MY "vet" is now on vacation until the 14 or 15 of this month.

IF it was something in the feed/pasture you would think they would all get it , the same with the hay I bought last fall. Genetics' maybe Sire only sired those 3 girls, and Enola's mother only had 2 calves total and the other 2 mom's just one calf each. UNLESS the previous owner/breeder didn't bother to register any other calves.

I haven't seen any Hen's bane in the big pasture and only a couple plants in the tit which are the only places the girls have been for the past 2 plus years

Its most likely afterbirth or a calf still there. Rod said he seen legs or something .
