How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

Tuesday





Chicken eggs 7

Temps windy over 15 MPH all day but right now it is after 3 in the morning and now that the wind has stopped I had to open the front and back door to cool of the house as the heat just made it uncomfortable to sleep any longer .

Oh wow. How warm is it there?
It's so hard to imagine heat when we've just experienced really cold temps...lol.

Chickens ventured out this afternoon, briefly. I put on my coat and shoes and rushed out to toss some scratch grains in the run. By the time I got out there, they were back in coop. Temp 24F windy and sunny. I coaxed them back out, but as soon as the scratch was gone, back into the coop they went.
Up to six more inches of snow tonight. Warmer tomorrow, into the 40s, yea.
5/5 today. GC

Thanks Gander, unfortunately, he will not get better.  He has congestive heart failure, 2 leaky heart valves ( & not healthy enough to survive the surgery), failing kidneys & liver & low blood pressure.  We've all been told that he doesn't have long to live ( but we don't know if that is 6 hours; 6 weeks or 6 months).  In the hospital he had been on a medicine ( dobutamine) that was really helping him ( as far as quality of live & comfort level) unfortunately, you can't go home on the medicine.  They took him off that IV Thursday morning at 6AM.  He's not back to as bad as he was, but he is already feeling like he can't breath ( fluid on the lungs from leaky heart valves) and is uncomfortable, weaker, not eating as much as the day before....He is also going in & out of lucid states ( has been most of the time he's been in the hospital, 4 days).  I believe the hospital is planning on sending him to skilled nursing on hospice and letting nature take her course.  He'll be 87 on the 17th of Feb.  I've been fortunate in that I have been able to spend 3 of the last 4 days up at the hospital with him, calming him down when he is confused & agitated & otherwise just being there with him.

13 eggs today

My heart and prayers are with you and your family
