How are things with you today?

Good! Just getting over a nasty cold. I've had this wheeze on/off for a couple months, and lately it's been all the time, so I went and got a chest x-ray two days ago. Luckily, it was normal, but my doc thinks I may have asthma! So I've been puffing on my inhaler.

It's crazy getting it for the first time at this age! But a few years ago I started having allergies, and I never had them either. Getting old is so much fun!

(But, it's better than the alternative.)

Ha, you know you're old when you find yourself watching a COLOGUARD VIDEO, lol. :oldWhich I was doing earlier!! There is actually a video that explains how to do it, and they have a guy pooping a fake turd (it actually says that on the video, lol!!) into this contraption, and sending it off through UPS. Crazy...
:lau

So, how are you? :D

So ....Day 12 of the Great Eggsperiment!!

It is so exciting. :D

All 4 mystery (hopefully Lafayette) eggs are rock and rolling!! The lone Serama egg--although 4 or 5 days behind-- is also coming along!

I will post pics/video when hubs comes home, if you like.

My Silkie, Olive, is broody again. She is the one who was broody exactly 6 months ago when I hatched my first ever batch of eggs, and then she quit a few days before they were to hatch. So, I stuck a couple mystery eggs under her today. We'll see what happens!

I've never had a broody hatch chicks before. If she is going strong, I will probably stick all 5 eggs under her and let her hatch them, so I don't have to deal with a smelly chicken brooding room, which I've already done 3 times. Hopefully, she will be a good mom! She just went broody two days or so ago, so I think she should be good. We'll see!

Good, hoping i can avoid hubby's cold. Trying to get ready for the big swap this weekend. And struggling to get the coop built and caring for so many quail. I will be glad to sell a bunch.

Ha, I caught my hubby's cold....thanks a lot! :p

Are you doing that TSC swap thing? They are having that over by me this weekend, I didn't know if it was all over or just local.

No, the Gilmanor swap in Glen Allen has been going on twice a year for decades. People come from at least 5 states to buy and sell. Its huge!
