It totally is... after stealing my husbands shoes for the last few months, I finally broke down and bought my own pair of crocs... but I still like his better. LOL They arrived last night.

The ones I got are like a cheap imitation. haha

I have mucking/rain boots, but I'm a fan of crocs. Just rinse them off and they are as good as new.


I also ordered some wooden eggs, to put into our coop - and my husband put a thing of hog fencing over the door, to keeep the goats out of the coop now. I even managed to get my oldest to clean the coop floor out last night! Woot!

He tried to tell me "Why should I clean the coop, these aren't my chickens."

I told him his chickens would be sharing the coop and he tried to tell me "so, once my chickens are living in the coop, i'll clean it then."

I told him I wouldn't put his chickens in there, if the coop wasn't clean, and if his sister cleaned the coop this time, all the chickens r belong to her! (Gamer lingo)

He cleaned it.

Good for you!

We do know we have rats in the area - We found a HUGE nest, under a dog kennel wood we took apart. They'd even collected things like knives, wire, tin, and made themselves a huge nest under the back of our shed.

My husband found some broken eggs, in the hay field when he was mowing some down for our goats a couple days ago. He was wondering it that meant they were stealing our eggs....

But, I have a hard time believing they'd rob the eggs in broad daylight?

Hi Jess, how did you manage to get such an assortment of scovy colors? 

Luck! The lady that I got Cocoa off of had a bunch of babies but only 1 was chocolate so of course that was the one I had to get. Then when I decided I needed another one to keep her company, I found someone else with some. I had to have 1 of each color that she had

@DwayneNLiz If you'd post the link to the thread so I Can find it easier, that would be great. I emailed the link to my husband, so he could help me explain genes to the kids. I'm really good at finding information to TEACH the kids, but he's better at explaining it in kid-lingo.

Yes they would steal them in broad daylight.

So the dogs and the neighbor hood Cat I thought got all the sapphire babies, HarmonyAnn found one huddled at the door huddled freezing, she is in the boobs area trying to warm up at the moment, she is soaked, but wrapped in a rag and now sleeping.  ughhhh   I have no clue how they got out unless they can still squeeze through the fencing or I am missing a broken link in the fence. 

wondering if I should just let her sleep or try some warm electrolytes or wait.  she finally stopped shivering hate to wake her up.  I feel so bad for her ughhh

I'd maybe let her warm up first, then try some electrolytes once she's at body temp. I'd worry about stressing her out before she's heated back up.

Good advice! I've done research on the subject and all say to get warm before giving water.
