grannys gone and done it

[campingshaws]

Still not done with chores. It's getting hot out there!


Sarah (the assistant) has friends who are building a chicken coop. I said I'd give them everything in the tractor for $30: 3 roos and 6 pullets (probably). I'm tempted to say if they get them by Wednesday I'll do $25. I just need the tractor empty so I can move the silkie into it.

or you need another tractor...   

That's the truth! I just went and selected my two hona cocks to keep (aside from Ragnar). I need breed pens!

Thing is most computers in schools are bought with grants from state & federal gov. Aka our tax money.

I made panels from dogwire stApled to 1X2s. I use them to divide pens up into breeding pens as needed in the spring.

I m in the south remember. Not many days below freezing. My pens are chicken wire with tin roofs. I put up tarps on 3.5 sides in winter.
