It's not a chicken but it's awesome lol

My daughters new Ragdoll kitten, a mink.

Originally posted by atrueb00 Do you say ragdoll cause you can hold onto it any which way and it doesn't care? Cause I have one of those and had a lot of cats, but never one like this. She lays in the oddest positions too. Very cute pic!

@raisinemright Adorable photo! Here's my little girl with her Ragdoll cat she adopted (sorry it's a repeat photo).


@atrueb00
Ragdolls are purebred cats known for being docile and limp like a ragdoll. Here is my Humane Society cat, Lionel pictured in my chicken carrier-- (last time I showed his brother Purrcy in the carrier). Although they aren't Ragdolls, they have the trait of being so relaxed that they're limp.

Well, it looks like our central AC is shot. If we can't repair it and have to replace it we'll have to delay getting chickens, as it will eat up the money we were saving for the coop, run and other stuff we need. Very depressed....

What are the symptoms? Is it standard AC or a heat pump? Have you tried servicing the system? If so, what all has been done?

Strange feeling today. I'm sitting in my house with the urge and feeling that I needed to do something outside. The wierd thing is I don't have anything to do??? Yes there will always be little things that should (but can wait) be done, but no major projects to do! No coops to build no pasture fence to be put up. Yesterday I finished my last big project and that was a hog pen for our Duroc boar. Now I'm at a loss. It has been such a busy spring and summer that it doesn't seem right to just be sitting down watching tv! I need to find something to do, I've already drank the usual amount if coffee!

Ride that urge down to Lebanon! LOL I still have several projects to do before winter without the knowledge of how to do them! Anyone know anything about:

1.) running electric from a breaker box in the barn to an empty breaker box in the coop (already wired in coop). I have zero idea what to even buy for this project
2.) how to install a walk through door in the garage, will involve going through vinyl siding and removing the cinder block foundation in that area (two cinder blocks tall)

I am saving my pennies to hire help before winter comes on these things!

Lol thanks for the spelling correction. When it comes to the wiring it is def best to higher a pro. Same goes with taking out a part of the foundation of any building. Good luck with the projects and getting them complete before winter. I hear it's going to be a close copy of last winter lord help us all!!

I know! I am super stressed trying to find hay and trying to get these projects done. I can't do another winter without electric out in the coop! I don't have enough available outlets to run cords from the barn and will need 3 heated waterers plugged in for the chickens, so that is a must to get done.

And my only exit door to go out and care for animals is off my living room, last year most of the winter I had snow drifted high against that door so when I would open the door to check on the animals it would dump 4 ft of snow on my wood floors in the living room....can't do that again. So alas I need to cut a new door into my garage to exit through when there is snow. I will feel great once I get these things done, but figuring out how to buy 300 bales of hay and do these projects in the next 3 months is a bit scary!!! Ahhhhhh stressssss!
