Thanks cap. I’ve seriously been having a case of the memory span of a goldfish lately. Oi.

Alright back to payroll. Wheeeee

Yeah, me too. The worry is always there, knocking out other thoughts.

I have been working hard on moving chicks. The Mini Brinsea hatched all but 2 eggs, one was a dud so I took it out. The other has a pip. I took the chicks that had hatched out, it was really crowded in there. Idk why they make it round. If it were square, there would be more space. Not bad for a $30 incubator!

I am sweating. It must be 75° or more out here. I have one door in the hoop coop that always jams, because the floor slants, and all the bedding ends up in front of the door. So I am shoveling out a whole bunch and putting sort of a square barricade in so it holds the stuff out. Hope it works. Taking a bit of a break, my back hurts. I really want to get it done today. So tired of kicking dirt aside every time I need to go in there. Sigh.

Hubby built me two raised beds that are up on 4x4s, so quite tall. I need to paint them. Sure a pretty day, but too windy for my liking. Must get back to work. Bbl

I have been finishing the brooder rehab and moving chicks. Here's a bucketful I moved out of the house and into the brooder. View attachment 2100909

Cute chicks!

Cool!


I think Camping has the right idea about these numbers... it has more to do with money than anything else. I think the raw numbers on those charts are fairly useless as far as comparing different states. Numbers should be per capita... how many shelters per 500,000 people for example. CA and TX are huge states with huge populations compared to most, so it makes sense that they would have a higher number of animal shelters. State laws make a big difference too. Many more laws and restrictions regarding animals in CA than other states, and higher fees for dog licensing. In my county there is a "leash law" meaning dogs may not roam free, must be leashed or restricted to home property, and there are large fines to pay if your dog gets picked up. Animal control is very responsive to calls for loose dogs. You rarely ever see one! Also we pay $25 per year for dog licenses. It all goes to county animal control, so I can't complain too much.

Over here in the ghetto we have have tons of chi s and pitbulls roaming. Quite a few German shepherds also. People breed them thinking they could make money, but just end up giving them away and they all just let them run the streets
