Morning all

Randy, I vote for the Irish coffee! Hope you didn't step on too many toes last night?

Vicki, I'm jealous, it's only 23* here. But, this week it's getting up into the 50s with thunderstorms! Hold the tornados, please??

Pink, I'm surprised the Wheaties haven't bitten you yet. Blue Wheatens, ahhhhhh.

Hope my hydrant isn't frozen today! Went to give water yesterday, and the handle would only rise about half way. Had to tote hot water from the house, and that's quite a trip.

Probably needs a gasket? Been here 17 years and never had this happen before, so time to look into this matter.

so exciting!! I'm gonna have to live vicariousy through through all of you doing New Year's day hatches. There are several reasons doing a NYD hatch would not be my smartest idea ever....but still hope one day I will be able to do one. But for now....more birds need to be moved and need to move things around in the garage so I can start building my grow out hutches one by one and then move them outside as I complete them

Well, you must need more practice because West Coast Swing does NOT come with a hungover when properly executed....(Who ever heard of trying to do a West Coast Swing on the East Coast....geeeez...

)

I was thinking last night when Randy was talking about heading out that he could just use the Wii and the country Just Dance to practice his moves...
He wouldn't need the hair of the dog this morning. He wouldn't of had to go out in the cold. Plus, he could of hung out with us and that creepy avaitar of his could of stalked us all night long.

Vicki, could you post some pics of your grow out hutches?? I need some ideas here for expansion. No NYD hatch here either, still too many culls hanging around.

Hmm, I've seen those Wii things, but no social interaction there, no toes to step on except your own. Oh, and he still would have a hangover more than likely??

Was it a David Bowie song? "Dancing with Myself"??

Mornin' Ms. Debbi!

I will admit that those Wheatens are beautiful birds and the Blue Wheatens are VERY VERY VERY

WORTHY........for some reason, I am immune to their bite.

Mornin' Miss Kim

If things don't get better here with the BCMs, I just may head in the Wheatie direction. I had initially looked at them and Golden Cuckoos, but noooooo.

that's crazy that its supposed to be in the 50s with thunderstorms there! I think we are supposed to have a couple of days up in the 40s but mostly mid to upper 30s here this week. Sigh....

I purposely don't go to the Wheaten thread because before I know it I'll end up wanting those blue wheatens...my uncles raises blue wheaten ameraucanas and I just have to avoid in looking in the direction of their coop because I really like the color pattern and the last thing I need is another color and breed.

I would guess gasket too. That's the only time my outside hydrant has ever frozen. Hopefully its easy enough to fix, cause hauling water from the house does indeed suck really bad!
