"Louisiana "La-yers" Peeps"

:frow Where do I start on trying to catch up....? :gig Just to much. I have been helping a BYC member. She really only needed help for the first week after her operation on her shoulder. We did a lot of sight seeing. When you live someplace you never do that kind of thing. She work on one of the reservations as a traveling nurse (now retired). It is a little startling to listen to her unapologetic frankness of viewpoints, usually only reserved for any group to speak of themselves. It was refreshing.

We drove to Bullhead City/Laughlin (4 hour drive) to check out her camper at some relatives. My pick up broke down. Stuck in Laughlin for 3 days. :rolleyes Laughlin is a town built in NV for gambling. It is a town of casinos. It was terrible...... I just couldn't put my hard earned money (back) in to the machines. I started with $40.00, went to $90.xx, then when I was down to $81.48, I just had to stop. The next day just as bad.... $20.00 to $49.xx to $41.05 I had to stop. The 3 rd day I couldn't give the money back, so I couldn't play. It really is boring if you can't gamble and you have nothing to do. Wi-fi was expensive at the hotel you are at, and no car.

I was worried about Flowers chickens. She was well over 35 years having chickens, she wasn't worried. Deference between an old egg and a new egg. I brought Sylvia up to mate with Angle. So she would not be alone I brought up Voney.

NOTE TO SELF: Be prepared to open windows on 3-1/2 hour dive with chickens in back set.

This is Angle.

On the way back we detoured to Oatman, on old Rout 66, once was a gold mining town. They are famous ex for their donkeys.

Thanks, everyone, for all the well wishes for my hubby! He's doing very well! Foreverlearning - I'm definitely following your advice. I've been setting an alarm to make sure he doesn't miss any meds & I've been keeping everything he comes into contact with disinfected.

I love the chick and duckling pics! I have 2 incubators running, but none of the chicks are for me. I'll get to enjoy them for a day though. :)

I have so many chores to do outside and I sure wish we could have a full weekend of nice weather. It's hard to clean out coops in a thunderstorm. Grr.

I'm glad your hubby is healing well!! Good job!!!! Its a lot taking good care of him. Plus all the normal chores!! Make sure you take care of yourself too. I Hope he has a speedy recovery!! Pam
 
All of you with chicks in a brooder go to DIY Thread "Let's see your inventions" thread. A guy bought some cheap feather dusters that he tied together at the handle and hung in his brooder. He said he has used it twice and his chickens seem happier then without it. They hid under the feathers and run in and out and stay warmer.

Nifty idea. I've seen some fluffy animals also.
