I've been getting a great crop from my blueberry bushes this year. I have 3 bushes that are 5 yrs old, 3 that are 3 yrs old and 4 that are from this spring. By the time they all produce berries, I'll be drowning in berries. The raspberries didn't do anything for the 2nd yr in a row. I guess I need to mow them down like I've read. The blackberries did great but they aren't the kind I wanted. They look more like black caps and aren't very sweet. I want the kind that resembles my thumb, lol. I'm pulling them all up and putting the ones I want in. Sometimes the labeling at the nurseries is wrong. I bought Iris that weren't the right color and clematis, the same. There is supposed to be a nice nursery up around Canadaigua Lake, can't think of the name. I might try there.
I'm going to try to make jam with Blueberries and orange and try to replicate the jam we bought while visiting along the Maine coast. It was soooo good. Rancher, I'd love to try some of your blueberry recipes. I also bag them in certain qty's and label what there for. So easy later on.

Miller's Nurseries.

Right near me.

SALLY = glad you bushes are producing fruit. My blackberry is young and growing only a few berries, I made room for some more bushes next year. Think I want blueberry. I will plants more strawberries next year.

LYNZI = your babies are super cute, and good luck with the roos

RANCHER = sorry about the berry plants. Maybe we can get some plants together next year I got a truck so I plan on buying a lot. I did get some more house plants on clearance. Gonna hit Lowes every weekend until my house is filled with plants.

GLASS = I hope you can get rid of that cyotee, good luck.

PhArm = glad you got the right hen.

I got another large egg, first one was 2.75oz this next one is 2.25 all darker shelled. Maybe this one two yolks like the last one. Got my garden boxes for next year are built and will be filled in soon. My next project will be small and large greenhouse and a shed.

Good evening all!

I'm wondering if the fact that her body was so strange was the cause of her egg eating?  How on earth did she survive?  And still lay eggs?  Crazy.

JLaw, did you pull eggs from the fridge to hatch?  I'd always read that once they are cooled in the fridge they are no longer hatchable.  Maybe I'm wrong? 

FIL is having surgery today.  He has been battling bladder cancer for awhile and has had pollups (sp?) that they have been treating with fluid chemo that they put directly into his bladder.  They found a spot on the wall of his bladder now.  They are going in more for exploratory surgery, but will remove what they need to from his bladder.  Hopefully they will not need to remove the entire thing, as this is a man who will NOT do well with a bag the rest of his life.  He should be headed to surgery soon. 

houghts, prayers and love sent your way.
