And after that cat got Icy's last baby a couple of days ago, she came and sat on my knee, talked a bit, softly and seemed to enjoy the pets and attention. She is so awesome!

Not so much creative as forced to use what molds I have. But I do think it’s cute! I wouldn’t have thought to use the chocolate molds if I had ice cube trays. It’s just taking forever cause I only have a few molds and a whole lot of juice and of course it takes all day to freeze.

10 eggs today laid - but 2 leghorn eggs were broken in 2 of the nest boxes. I took the opportunity to clean all 4 out. The 2 leghorn eggs that survived have nice shells. Supports my thought it’s more of a hen issue than a feed/raw calcium issue. And of course the other hens all have great shells.

I may actually sell eggs for the first time ever this weekend to a neighbor! I’m pricing them on the low side cause 1) she’s a neighbor and we barter as well and 2) she works and could be a source of future sales.

Both my lime and lemon trees have WICKED thorns. Long and sharp as hell. Maybe it’s just the varieties I have. I didn’t know they had thorns when I bought them. But they are very tasty. I looked at a fruit picker gadget - $45! Too pricy for my usage level. I’ll have to figure out a way to get the fruit cause I want to juice some of the lemons next. A lot of the fruit is in the interior of the tree. Hence the suckiness of those killer thorns.

Could you use one of those grabber gadgets they make for people who can't reach up high or can't bend over well? I think they are only around $20.00. You could reach in there and grab one and pull. :idunno Or twist or something.

I have a friend that had a pumpkin patch this year. I already inquired about leftover pumpkins. I'm going to have to remind him! I don't think I will get as many as you did! I don't have any cows to feed. :lau

7 eggs today.

I thought of those grabber things. I need to check them out.

Even a few would be a nice treat for your chickens. I got 31 and some of them are quite big. I gave 4 to the cows and they ate them right up. I hope to turn the compost piles tomorrow and place a lot of the pumpkins in there.

8 eggs today. No soft ones. But only 1 leghorn egg. One blue egg. It’s been at least a week since I’ve gotten 2 blues. Lots of feathers all over the place today.
