"Louisiana "La-yers" Peeps"

[Jipus5]

My Austrolorps were very productive for me! Egg wise anyway, but they never once went broody for me... never read if that was part of their normal behavior or not... but very reliable hens otherwise.

Hers are new to the flock.... I'm pretty sure its from the stress of moving. Im having the same problem with my new girls

Thanks for all the info everyone. I will be checking their boxes and cleaning them out, just in case. PSJ: I was thinking that too but it's been 2 weeks for the RIRs and a week for the SLWs. I can understand from the SL but the RIRs were laying so good after a week. I just don't understand why I'm not getting any most days.

Of course I am!!!  I have an 'ol group of gals from childhood, we call ourselves the YAPPING YAYA'S.  Have t-shirts and everything!  We attend as a group to fundraisers, 5K's, etc that is raising money for things we all believe in supporting or just having fun at!  That is why I was making those tutu's past 3 weeks...  my living room STILL looks like some Las Vegas dancers had a party in here, glitter everywhere! Just can't do more than 5K, one has a son who comes and is our 'handicapped honey', so we must be mindful of his tolerance to distance.

Pam, it is gonna be as close as I get for a while so we better take advantage of it!  Would love to get together!  Gotta find a place to stay, one gal actually lives in Jackson, but her place may not be able to place us all?  Not sure, she is organizing her 'pallet places' ?  But probably not since there are so many. I'm riding with one girl, so she and I may just find somewhere... 
Hope to do a 'drop by' on Angel as well!  

As long as we 'er in town. I don't know of any so pretty sure I'll be here! I have a mother in laws apt. Right now Ron is renting it to a guy that has a job going in Nola . I'll ask if he'll be out by then. If so you could use it. We 're 30 min from Covington . Just so you know you'll have to drive that far for your 5 k. If the guy will still be here I'll come to you. Our mil apt has 2 kings and a twin bed. You will have to be able to climb stairs. And not be afraid of 100 lb GSD that's a lover and a licker. Lol!!!! You know I mean that in a innocent way, and a 80lb barker won't bite but she can't keep her mouth shut whether barker or trying to make you do something she wants. If I tell her show me she will. I hope it works and Ron's guy is gone.

My husband said we could only keep 3 because we had just gotten 3 orpingtons the week before. I don't want to give away the wrong birdies!! Help!!!! Can't have any Roos

Hi guys. Spent the day outside. First made a gigantic clothes rod from scraps for my garage sale.

Worked some more on the shelter, got the electric going and put in a fan.

Put up summer rain flaps on bunny hutch, cleaned out the hutch, set up the fan and make a walkway for the bunnies to go in and out.

Also re-seeded the window screens and watered. Hope to have greens soon.
Love the little cotton tails.
Poor Kuntrygirl. Sorry about the fertility explosion. Glad you don't have any meaties right now.
The 5K run adventure and the Yayas sounds so fun.
