It still sucks...lol It is a work in progress

Every day will get just a little bit easier. Give yourself a huge pat on the back. Next year at this time other people's smoke with be bothering you. As in you won't want to breath it. You are doing great!

I saw someone the other day selling "Poor boy" Jub Orpingtons. They were speckled sussex/Orp crosses. Makes me wonder, just how close to SS's do they look? They are on my "Most wanted" list, but I'm thinking if they look very close to my Speckled's (in person) then I'd rather not.

Thank you Flocksalot. :O)

I'd like to get some English imports, but they look too much like cochins without feathered legs. I haven't decided if I like that or not.

I know someone who asked if they could pick up their SFH they wanted to order and were told NO. Why wouldnt they not allow someone local, or semi local to pick up?

Jenny told me I could pick mine up if I wanted, only tues-thurs. And they do not give any tours anyemore. but that was last fall, they might not even let you pick up anymore.

As far as canning, I am with you guys... I plan on trying to can as much as possible. I don't have a canner either, so have to get going and get one. I will look for the all in one canning setup to get me started.

Would love to have recipes!

I am behind on the thread, was too busy today... got 3 rabbits, need to post pictures.... busy busy.

Hope everyone had a great day!

Oh and GFF stinks. Big time.

2 goose eggs are fine. I just helped a friend box up some... they are HUGE!

Hollowoak....wow, glad you caught it before it did any real damage...that's so scary!!!!

X2 I can't even imagine how you must have felt when you saw it heading toward the barn, etc. I have seen the wildfires in CA. It can get away from you way too quickly.

I think that is why I love them so much. I just love how they are a big ball.

We are up to 5 baby turkeys with lots of pips. I have nose prints all over the bator. Mine and my sons. He wants me to wake him for every turkey to hatch. Not gonna happen. He can see them in the morning.

We lost the last batch due to a unplugged bator. That kids never coming back here! So this one is extra special.

I got offered a trio of midgets today. Who wouldn't want more turkeys? Anyway we are picking them up next week, so maybe I will have some eggs to swap again. We have so many orders right now I need every egg. That busy time of the year is upon us.

The new rules look to be workable from my standpoint.

Had to share this for COF! My friend Michelle who bought your ducklings has a free range mandarin. I have no idea if she clipped the flight wings or what but its pretty neat.

I'm so behind on te thread with the prep for house sale going on. I can't concentrate at all. I'm so glad it's almost done!!!

I'm so glad they caught the fire in time hollowoaks. That sounds heartwrenchingly frightening.

Yay for babies and for losses

Hope all is well. I'm bathing kids and going to bed!

Okay, question for you guys. How many of you would buy 11 pounds of dried mealworms for $140? The feed store had a huge bag of mealworms. My girls would go crazy.

Guilty

My girls give me pathetic sad eyes if I don't throw them mealworms when I'm collecting eggs. I think their on to me too because most of them hold out on me so I'll come around again...spoiled chickens

This is my second bag already

I think I need to start growing these things
