Thanks, Matt. I also have the spreadsheet if I want to get really detailed with the nutrition

Thank you preciouskitty!

Thank you preciouskitty! 

Thought you could use a little "pick me up" after your somewhat frustrating week last week

@preciouskitty Just wondering... cuz I never asked you if you used a nipple waterer for your chickens? I tried my new one for Travis and Red,(his new name is Spartacus, don't ask,

I thought Einstein was better but I lost)

They looked at me like I had two heads.

Spartacus figured it out eventually, but Travis just ignored it.

Nope..never used a nipple waterer...just the "regular" ones!

I like the name

My chicks took to them no problem from the first week. The boys kept dumping the other one so I switched it out.
I'll roll out there in the morning and see if Travis has figured it out yet. LOL

Yesterday after I returned from cutting wood all day I finally performed a cervical separation on my flock of Vorwerks and the flock of Welsummers. I hated doing it but they were getting quite old and hadn't laid an egg in months. The reduction of birds will make winter care a little easier.

@Opa Soup?

If my plate wasn't already overflowing with tasks that need to be performed, processing the birds for future soup pots would be a great idea. However, since I already have more work to do than any old man should I will be taking the carcasses to the local nature center where they will be used to feed the rehabilitating raptors.

Opa, do you have to make arrangements or do they take them anytime?
