This is Grey ...she ? looks like she will be a grey Samatra type ..cute




This is Bruiser ...See the black eye ?


This is Sammy she looks like she will be black ..She is a cutie ! she chirps alot ..she Will fly up up to me



These are Tire Tread & Skid Mark ..their tracks are all filled in they both will fly up to me also ..Samatras seem to like the higher positions ..which alot of times is me !



this is LIL ROO..He is checking out the cat on the chair

This is Scruffy ...for the obvious reason ..Did have a Pecked comb from Gia ..healed now .

This is GIa ...Coz she is Giant compared to the others

No Peeps or Pips from the eggs yet .
We might have had the temps a little too low the thermometer was in the top window ..so it wasnt as warm as we thought it was in there .
We moved it down on the screen it was 10 degrees less .( 80-85 ?) we raised the temp a bit ..
They are still growing ..even though it was a little cooler than they recommend .
So we are thinking maybe another day before lock down

Forgot to mention, (only because I found this kinda funny and I always have to share something funny), with all this talk going back and forth between my husband and I about moving again - he knows I'm not happy about it and knows I really don't want to move again because of how much I love it here. Well the other day he sent me an email of about a dozen houses for sale in CT, said "These are just a few of what I found for sale in CT". So I start opening up the files and I'm like ok, this one is nice, a lot of acreage, enough bedrooms, and Wow, a barn!. Open the next one, Eh, this one looks alright, and Wow look at that it has a barn! Open the third one and I'm like oh this is cute, newly remodeled inside, and WOW another barn! I go downstairs and I'm like Ummmm what's up with the barns? LOL He says, I figure thats the only way I can get you to move so I better start looking for what property has the best barn rather than house. Men! LOL

Make him work for it. Ask him what they are zoned for because you want 2 pigs 1 cot and 3 peafoul next year.

Jlaw the best investment I made was electric netting and automatic pop door, I don't have to worry about the chickens except to feed them and collect eggs once a day

I was thinking it was pizza lol. As for the pop door i dont have a run set up so they run around the yard. I wanted to build one already but lawnmower broke so had to get a new one kinda set back my chicken plans some. Sadly they still go out the human door wich i really dont like but i've been busy with 12 hour shifts. Going to finish second coop then put chicken doors and covers for windows up next week or two i hope.
