Granny's gone and done it again

[Nomadicus]

Got sidetracked outside and not a tomato got planted. Maybe tomorrow afternoon. Hope it rains me out so the ground will be more favorable to tender plants being planted and I will only need to water them when being planted for a day or two. Weather sure is fickle here lately. No rain forecast and we get a shower. Thunderstorm forecast and we get a few teaspoons full. I don't remember if I posted it or not but my beloved little fuzzy black silkie pullet died night before last. She was so lovable. I've still got some silkies left and hoping for some pullets that will go and go often broody.

Is that the hottest you have had this summer?

Nope 112 a couple of days now.

I am sorry, what happened?

 

[h2oratt]

She had her put down

I don’t think so, but I have been wrong before.

what happened to your little silkie Larry?

I am sorry, what happened?

To many irons in the fire right now to keep any of them hot so it seems. I started moving bags of pine mulch into place and then a buyer came for chickens and by then something else but I have no clue what it was now. After pain mgt tomorrow we should be home in time to plant all 50 of the maters and maybe a few bell peppers.

Do you do therapy for pain management?

what happened to your little silkie Larry?

I thought that she had been injured by a rooster but that was not the case. Her coop mates were injured but not the silkie. My best guess is that she ate something out free ranging that was to toxic for her. I've pulled every nightshade plant I can find and destroyed them where no chicken could get to them. She may have eaten to many tomato leaves. But most of the chickens eat tomatoes and leaves when they get into the area where the tomatoes are without a problem. I found 2 of the small Cornish pullets late today that are underweight like the silkie was when I found her. All the others are lively and full of vinegar. She is terribly missed as she always let me pick her up and hug on her like a puppy.
