Good day yesterday. Got 10 eggs from my flock of 12. nice to see a couple of my older girls firing up.

Lucky! I only got one egg out of 18 hens. OUCH!!!

We have four plus dozen eggs in storage. The most ever at the beginning of February.

All 5 of my girls have been laying an egg a day for the past few days. It's been great!

We have 9 EE and get at least 7 eggs a day all winter long.

That's awesome. My EEs were the first to stop and the last to start up again.

My EEs are the only birds in my flock of 200+ that laid well through the winter.

Just shows how different bloodlines matter; my EEs stopped laying for about ten weeks, and just started up again last week. Sorta; four EEs, and a few green eggs per week, so far. Mary

Just finished the PSI (pre-sentencing interview) with the GC probation officer. I believe it was a waste of my time as the objective is to force behaviour changes to my lifestyle and extract as much cash from me as possible.
She wanted information like the names of ex-wives, marriage dates, medical history and other details that I can't see are relevant to the case at hand. She also had driving record and credit report.
She had a letter from the neighbor listing a dozen things that he doesn't like about me. She dwelled on that for most of the session. This was from a thick folder that I was not allowed to see, let alone contest. The assumption is that he is right and I am wrong.
I questioned a lot of what she stated and she did not like that. So I'll probably be called un-cooperative.
I can only get a copy of the report on the day of sentencing. No chance to challenge any of the information as to accuracy of fact.
She finished by telling me that I had to be compliant with all ordinance standards as they pertain to the neighbor's interpretation of them. Basically do as the neighbor wants so he has no reason to call the city or the cops.

I figure that I'm screwed.

So find things that there is no ordinance against, and do it in the most annoying way possible. Like cooking outside on days the smoke blows towards his house. Or install a motion sensing light that turns on whenever he uses his yard. Or install a noisy little waterfall bird fountain.
