How is everyone elses morning going?
Hmmm... so far I have had to...
dig a small toy out of a babys mouth,
clean a 3yos feces up off my dinning room floor,
change and shower the child that pooed,
clean up spilled water from the humidifier (caused by two 3yo)
change and shower the same 3yo because he put the soiled pants BACK ON out of the dirty laundry (because the knee of his new pants got wet in the water they spilled from the humidifier)
Also, it is BFs b-day... He calls all upset because he heard that backyard farm eggs test positive for lead.
Now he is a big conspiracy person... I said that they could be reporting that because they are trying to thin out backyard farming and are changing the laws...
He said he did not want our son eating any eggs unless they are from a store...
Why did we get chickens if not to be a healthier family?????
I WANTED QUAIL!!!! JUST A COUPLE QUAIL!!!!!!
Have any of you had your eggs tested for lead?
I am done with today. Is it Friday yet?
DISCLAIMER I have never used Castor oil with my chicks and I am not sure if it would work
I found that giving chicks warm water to drink actually solidified their poo.
I know how scary it is to have a dog projectile vomit! Last year Gunny couldn't keep any food down and I was afraid that he had eaten something non eatable out of the garbage that he had ransacked a few days before...
I hope it passes with no other problems and he is cleared for surgery!

Ohhh are you getting some new ladies???
PS I use to watch Darkwing Duck LOL

Maybe some Castor oil? Just a drop or 2. Castor oil can be used for runny poo and the lack of poo.-Anyone had suggestions about a chick with a chronically poop-covered butt? One of my wyandotte hatchlings has it. The other 2 are fine. I've given this poor chick a bath for 3 days in a row now, and it immediately looks pasty again 2 hours later.![]()

Yeah, it sure seems like when it rains, it pours....

Lets add all that to the list of why I don't drink coffee... (But if you send a guy over that looks like that...I might reconsider...![]()
I saw this picture and it sent me on a memory trip of almost 50 years, back to the last time I had mess tent coffee during a Army winter field problem. Coffee grounds were brought to a boil in a large pot and after the cook felt the color was correct egg shells were added to settle the grounds. You'd dip you metal canteen cup in hoping to not get too many grounds. First sip would scald the skin from your lips and tongue, and the last swallow would be ice cold. Plus you would usually have to chew your coffee.

I love Garfield as well! I was born on his birthday so he has always held a special place.I love Garfield so this made me smile...not crazy about those words either though. lol!
Not crazy about the weather we've been having...Darkwing seems to be holding his own though...looks like we'll have a lot more company here for him in the next couple weeks!![]()
