New2TheCoop,.. like Julie,. I too use the zip ties,..it's just easier and cheaper.
Julie,..We had a great time at the Strawberry fest,. but it's just not like when I was young and it was still a very small local thing,. when you literally knew almost everyone there. I must be getting old,. I can hear my Mom's words coming out of my mouth,...
But it was yummy and we brought some home,. we make strawberry syrup every year,.. for cold vanilla ice cream!
I love the pic of that Mamma duck looking right at the camera,.. and that "dog",. at first it just looks like a blob of fur?/ We had to call the authorities on a neighbor about his dogs,. he just would not fence in his chicken killers.
we did have a neighbors new dog get in the yard over the fence when it got off the leash ,..and I was freaking out until the goofy thing ran past my chickens so excited to have gotten off the leash,. he was running around and around ,..all out for all he was worth ,. tongue hanging out and so happy,. he ran by my chickens and looked at them as if to say,.. hey ,. look at THAT,.. the rooster was a big coward,. and clucked like a hen,. the lead hen chased the poor dog all over the place,. the dog loved every minute of it,. DD couldn't catch it and finally hollerd SIT!!! and darned if that dog didn't just sit.
It could have been a disaster,. we were blessed...... Brian is putting up a higher fence and gate,.more $ and time....
Amylou,. that is a really nice coop. I like the paint job,.
Terri Ann,. what kind of tomato's are blooming,.I have 4 this year and I find only the shrub typ are blooming,. my vine type are still putting on green growth. We are trying some Black and some Blue tomato's too this year for fun!
Baralak,.. It sounds like a "good" tired,. you got so much done! ( or the boys did
)
We haven't gotten rain either,.I know what ya mean about that hard ground.
we broke the tiller clearing some land and the roots were like a matt!,.. now I am scrambling to make some raised beds to put a bunch of started stuff in.
kingsfarm,...No chickens are not color blind,. but a Broody is a Mama and they love babies,..
Paisaneaux,.. Luv the videos! we sat and watched them all!
Missi.. don't feel badly,. I can't tell you how many oops's I've had,..
and I have to tell ya,. Olivia's pen came out pretty good,.. I am impressed,.. got to get pics,.. but I can never find the camera when I need it
Everyone,.be safe and stay cool!
