broody cat
merlin on the incubator he's up there all the time. i'm wondering if i put a heating pad under eggs if he's lay on them.

 

[sammileah]

well 4 days or so and we'll see if homemade incubator is working well enough. St paties day i could be over run with babbies. 6 egg in bator and 1 goat due.
working on basement today icky but hopefully a bunch more light and a coat of white paint will make it less creepy.
ER is going in a corner under a window. it amazes me how easy it was to talk hubby into putting a pen in the basement. hmmm maybe he's thinking about putting kids in it.
the basement is cleaner than thier room.

haha i like you broodies...all the species.

Sam - can he come build me a brood pen in my basement? And then I need a new run - well 2 of them...

 

[sammileah]

well sure mght take him 3 yrs. he's one of those. i started looking up electicians to get him to add the lights and outlets. I'll end up building the panels for the ER. I learned long ago if i want it done on time i need to do it. now don't get me wrong when he does help he does great and he supports the addition and all the stuff that goes with it.

so i lost another banny yesterday and middle boy cried ( he's a crier). so that leaves 1 little BR hen.

so now i'm trying to keep myself from buy new. waverly is 25 days away and I don't need to go to auction in 5 days no matter what my MIL says. she's an enabler. hmmm what did i do with that link to the sale?

Oh i learned a very good lesson yesterday. Don't wear your long hair loose around goats. my pygmy tried to eat it. i was able to pull it out of his mouth before he chewed anything off.

the auction on the 20th down south. i forget the name cause i was trying to put it out of my head till MIL called and told me they have east indies well darn it.

on other news. I've been outside playing in the mud and wrangling chickens. I was the pied piper.

and instead of mary and her little lamb its sam and her little goat cause everywhere i went he was right there.

Jakobi it nesting and stuff today maybe have babies in the really near future i post pics.
