Sally needs a bigger house

I need a new laptop is whut I need !! dang errors!

A big advantage of my leg banding system is that I can tell the age of every bird by looking at the band color. I've used numbered bandettes a long time but always white cause I don't see that well in my old days. But changing the color each year was a real revelation.
With 6+ flocks of all black birds, naming is impossible - even if I did want to - which I don't.
It makes record keeping much more organized and the spreadsheets are neater.


Next on the list are trapnests. Once those are in place, micro chipping down the road.

I started building mine out of a shelving unit my son was throwing away. It is currently set up for 3 trays but I plan on pulling the shelves out and building a combined 5 or 6 rack turner.

Bonus!

Who could?
The posts come faster than I can scroll pages.

Repurposed, recycled components and Chinese electronics on Alibaba express or E-bay.

Awesome record keeping! great idea on the ages!! love it!

You really do need to get out more

really? oh well

Why can't your dad help you build a coolerbator?

Well my internet data finally reset last night so maybe I can keep up better now...But probably not lol.
I did wake up to 3 pips this morning from the 5 shipped eggs.

Looks like one of the bantam Cochins may be zipping soon!!!

I would think dad would want to help... just to keep the house from burning down.
