How have the Rainbows done for you?

Hi Dax

I don't know how to guage that since I have never had meat type birds before. What exactly do you want to know?

Hey all

Hey there

Mehhhh. I have to pick which chicks to keep and which to sell. They're just barnyard mix and EE, but I can't decide!!! Help? I tend to choose roosters....lol

One out of these two (any guess on what in the world they are is also appreciated)

And one out of these EE

The one on the left of the light ones is giy off a pullet vibe to me.
I can't figure out which one of the darker ones is a pullet. Maybe none. Keep the one in the middle.

Do they grow fast, stay healthy that sort of thing.

I'm assuming they eat quite a bit.

How much space do goats need? Can I put them on a leash like a dog?

no, but you could make a cow panel square and a couple of t-posts that you move around.

Flip a coin.

If they weren't barn yard mix I'd say the middle of the three is a pullet only because of size. Other than that it's too early to tell.

Welp, time to toss the eggs. Will y'all beat me over the head if I don't eggtopsy them? I don't really feel like opening 7 eggs with chicks in them.


....Just tell me to stop being silly, that is what I really need... Sigh....

I've had a... Day. So many things going through my mind!
Having to lift heavy structures by myself makes me emotional because I don't have anyone to help. It makes me mad, but that does me no good. So, I bend with my knees and lift. Then I tear up and berate myself for crying.
When an hour of charging the screwdriver only got part of the third wall on, I used it to finish screwing in all of the screws on all three walls. Realizing I had to get more done outside, I pulled up the tarp I had in the garden. I honestly don't know how the grass managed to get that long underneath a tarp.
Once again, I got ticked off. Two rototillers and I can't use either one. Being mad and being upset was not doing me any good, so I grabbed a shovel and got to work. I had forgotten how rocky my yard is. I am surprised that there were still so many large rocks in a garden I've had for several years. I may not have gotten very far, but at least I got a good amount done.
The nice part was getting to be naked in the house! LOL!
I was just contemplating a shower when I got a call from my in-laws. Duckling was coming back early.
I knew that they had not given her nap, so we headed upstairs at 6:30. She cried the entire time I was trying to get her changed for bed. I kept trying to comfort her, but she just wanted to go to bed. She did not even want any stories. It amazes me that everyone else is still giving her bottles with rice cereal in them, and rocking her. It still takes them two or three hours to get her to sleep.
So you see, it is been a very… Interesting day. That, and I just can't seem to say anything the way I mean it.
