Good Morning!

Brianna- glad the ice cream pails are working for you! We have a sink full of buckets. the girls are bringing in the water containers and giving the chickens and ducks nice warm water to drink.

MJ- Glad that you stopped in to say hi. Sounds like you are busy....is your hair all grey yet with one starting to drive?

7961- Nice birds. My daughter would love them, but we have no room. I need to build something to house the meat birds this spring. They stink too much to keep in the garage.

KC- I am always cold! Ever since I started exersicing 2 years ago and lost some weight, I am cold. Ice cold hands and all!

CM- Glad your coop is almost done! Our first coop is small, #2 is bigger, and now I am looking at a #3 coop for the meaties. But I will probably fill it with something in the fall when it is empty

Have a great day everyone and keep warm!

Sarah

Morning all. I haven't been able to keep up with this thread as much as I'd like to. Silly real life getting in way of all the internet fun.

It's a chilly one out there this morning. Better bundle up.

Rhandi your hair looks great

I have just been working alot, this time of the year is very busy for work, I have to White Lake, Lapeer, Grand blanc, burton, flint, Novi, some times all in the same day.
Plus taking care of the chickens, ducks, chinchillas, and of course the Kids, and trying to Christams shop, Ordered some Avon From Crystal, I just love the Unscripted patrick Dempsey, colone for men, if you want your guy to smell GOOD

get him some of that,

still no signs of my ducks, there is sign of them any where, we have walked in the woods and by the ponds every day, thinking i'm see feather or somthing, but noting, still blows my mine

that 6 duck can go missing in 4 hours.

I got my Christams gift early i ordered a Octagon 20 ECO digtial w/ turner, i kept going back and forth from that one and the Hovabator 1588.

the octagon hold 1/2 the amount of eggs, but it uses less engery.
it comes today, plus i getting eggs from Halo in FL, she sent me blue Plymouth Rock eggs a month ago, they didnt hatch very well out of 15 eggs only 4 hatched, and 2 were not the BPR, they were black rocks, and 2 were deformed, so at no charge she is sending another dz, and i'm going to getting those today to.

got to go get 2 new tires on the front of my Van before the storm comes. so that what my day is filled of

Mike came over with his daughter Emily yesterday to get 4 blue silkies, very nice people. she is just starting out with chickens, he built her a very nice coop.

Good Morning all... with the really cold air and storm heading our way I have a question. We have a coop with a run underneath and the girls have a ramp..with a door. I close them in at night and have been using radiant heat and that has kept the water from freezing at night. And I have been opening the coop door during the day. We put clear plastic on 2 sides of the run to block the wind and keep the snow out.

With it being -5 temps on Thursday should I make the girls stay in the coop????

Thanks
Terri

Never understood the desire for nose rings. Helped my father with nose rings when I was a kid. They kept hogs from rooting and really worked great from leading cattle. Sort figure most women would take offense if I snapped a lead rope on 'em.

somewhere in the bible it actually says something about God putting a ring in a nose to complete someone's beauty. it's regarding a baby in the desert. i'll have to go look it up. hey, if God did it, good enough for me...

just always wanted one since i was a small kid looking in Natl Geo mags!

now, the lip piercing (beauty mark piercing) i want i cannot seem to get my hubbie to agree on. he says they 'freak him out'. ha. so, i wont get it. if he says no, it's no. in honor of him being leader of our family and our relationship.

of course the tattoos i'm getting on my foot tops, he's in the 'like' mode of, even though he's somewhat anti-tattooing. i'll make sure to update when i get the chance to have time to get them done.
