Ick, FunDip.

So Bryan, what you're telling us is that you're only a little over a week away from rolling out of hibernation?

I have a chicken poop question, it's in Emergencies, etc. if anyone has an answer. I'm stumped.

I'd have to send you three. And then one for each body in your house, so they'd leave you alone.

Orchy, my mottled cochin rooster does the same thing. Not sure why. I assume he is drinking more cause it is yowza hot here. He seems fine otherwise.

No because the boys all think Fundip is disgusting. Charlotte doesn't like them either. I can sneak one past Stephy and Annika easy enough.

One is enough for Rufus, Reginald and me. Please, I'm currently 98 pounds. That's a TON of sugar and I'd be climbing the walls with 3.

I just spent the last hour and a half hosing down the porch rugs.

That is: we can't afford to put pavers under the porch yet, so I have been collecting/using old carpets and rugs out there to keep the dust down. We dont really have grass most of the year, and none at all under the porch. So with the kids and dogs and me running in and out, the dirt in the house gets outta hand.

But the chickens love the carpeting, and love to poop on it. Yesterday was a total poofest. Shane said I needed to wash the carpets today, which is a PITA. Some of the carpets are so large, I have a hard time picking them up. The big ones are like 10 by 20, and COVERED in fine dust--I end up hacking for days. THen I have to haul them across the yard, lift them over the drive gate, and stand there with a hose forever. A dog chewed off the end of the hose, so i cant attach the power sprayer. I gotta use my thumb to get a good water velocity, and now it is all owies.

Cry for me.

1 - get the kids to sweep the stupid rugs.
2 - buy a new hose.
