Pea Chicks!

Everything going on at once has really slowed down gardening and put me way behind. Bronchitis is pretty well gone but all sorts of other maladies both personal and property wise. My wife is at the hospital right now getting her face stitched up. I told her not to bother locking the chickens up last night because I would be home by dark. I pulled in the drive when she was walking up from the back with blood streaming down her face. She had fallen and hit her head. She refused to go to the hospital last night not thinking it was that bad. When I tried to help her clean it and bandage it this morning I couldn't believe how deep the cut was. It is at the top of her eyebrow and almost 2/3 the length of it. I took her to urgent care right up the street but they wouldn't touch it because she truly need hospital care and possibly a plastic surgeon. She said she didn't care if it scarred. I said, "you will". Dealing with ants in hives, I got stung in the eyelash and woke up yesterday with it swollen shut. It's better now. Some of the techniques to keep the ants at bay. The buckets are better than the tub because water in the tub makes for too much humidity in the hive - but the tub is cheaper. I have to go into all hives today to check on the queens. It has to be done today because it is raining the next two days. Something chewed through the door of a coop and killed all 9 birds in there. I don't think a mink would have been strong enough and it looked more like coon damage but the mayhem was more like mink. Nothing eaten, just all dead birds. I tried to salvage some meat and eggs, then burned the carcasses - all with one eye. Then the storm closed my driveway so nobody could get in. Among everything else I have to do I still have to finish my incubator so I can hatch eggs from the birds I lost. More problems but that's enough for now. John Frank also has black swans and a very interesting variety of ducks; 3 varieties of wood, 5 species of teal, shovelers, mandarins, et. al.

Omg CC I am so sorry to hear of your challenges. You are always so helpful to everyone on BYC, you should have tons of good karma coming your way. I will have you, your wife and your farm in my prayers. I have a hive of bees now. My SIL put it on my property, so luckily she is taking care of it.

Why are all the cool birds on the opposite side of the state from me?

Because you have enough cool birds to cover your half of the state

well have got to go again will be gone all day so don't be too busy so it will be easy for me to catch up.

Good luck with that!

That would squish them.

Wear a hoody, and pretend they are joeys

Nice!! They are looking good!


Good morning ALL!!! Happy Friday! My lock down eggs aren't doing anything yet. I think they are afraid to hatch after they learned I killed all the previous babies....

But on a happier note, my BF got a new puppy. He's got a raccoon face!!!




I hope everyone is having a good day!!!

Love the pup!!!

I have to confess, I pulled a CH last night. I had candled all my incubator eggs. They all look good, a few clears but I don't think a few of my hens don't let mr macho breed them. Well got to thinking about my broody. I have waiting for her to come off the nest so I could at least look at the eggs. I went out last night to button up her pen and she had gotten out and pooped sometime earlier. I decided I needed to candle. Well she is a cucko Maran so her eggs are very dark. I couldn't see much but I think they are growing. I promise to leave her alone. This is my and her first time. She is in the zone.
