FYI Santa is in the area. He passed me yesterday on I-49 when I was going home from work. He was driving a silver van. (I did a double-take because Jim drives a silver van - and has been known to play Santa on occasion)!

hope yall are enjoying this weather seemed like 70 degrees this morning when i got up and its already down in the 50's. Processed my first chicken yesterday, A young rooster about 8 months old. felt pretty nice to eat something that i hatched off myself lol.

Haha, I was just about to say y'all hunker down! I think the worst is north of us, and also south of us. I get nervous in this weather, though. Had a mini-panic attack a bit ago and put my shoes on to go outside with the chickens, but it's raining now.

I'm so excited to hatch babies! To sell, of course, I'm being constantly reminded. I have to get eggs first, though... I've gotten two this whole month, and those were weeks ago. We're going to try some different nest boxes/material/locations to see if that's the problem.

I'm not sure what the going price is for veggies here, but I was paying $5-6 for eggs, $35 a week for organic veggies (huge box though) and fresh bread was at least $5 a loaf. Maybe start out at your price and see how it goes but I think it might be low.

I'm really thinking about going total organic from Azure for chicken feed as well. Can't I buy organic bread flour from them also? I need to get a catalog. I was thinking of about 4 tomatoes and squash or zucchini or various things Maybe 3 or 4 kinds plus a couple of small packs of herbs. I'm going to do a lot of green beans and cowpeas. And a LOT of sugar snap peas. I'm not sure what NW area of state will bring for price. Would it be different than south? A lot of well off people going in around me. One fellow down the road bought a bunch of land when he realized 100 million on natural gas. Big beautiful home. Maybe I should be thinking of doing organic chickens also. I'd have to have help on that but might be worth it. Way down the road on that!!!!

Severe storm rolling through here right now. All ya'll stay safe! Guess it'll be back to sweater weather tomorrow.
