Good morning! Not such a great night! I was up at 2 messing with that dang wine bucket. Hubs only had his mess in a 3 gallon which wasn't enough, it woke me up with a soggy "boom". So the only 5 gallon bucket I have that is safe is the chicken food bucket. I had to wash that out, drill an airlock hole and move it all over to that bucket. Just all kinds of fun! Reminds me why I just stick to making mead though.:lau
 
I had a cat like that, it got to the point where i'd just shave his butt with hubs old electric razor. He really broke me from long hairs, it was a constant battle between mats, fleas and atitude. He hated hubs, that was the reason he became an outdoor cat. Any chance he got he'd poop in his shoes. Outdoors he was worse, if you sat down he'd box you in the head. Eventually lost that cat due to a rooster spurring him but he did eat alot of his murderer. I don't know why he was so freaky, he was fixed and i'd had him since he was a baby.:idunno

Congrats!!!!


I totally know what you mean. We have a long hair cat, who is also an outdoor cat. She gets mats on her underside, but hates when I try to cut them out. She had a big one on the back of her leg that went up by her butt. Recently I thought she'd smashed her tail and part of it was dead b/c it was just hanging there. She doesn't let me near her b/c I'm the remover of ticks and mats and giver of medicine.. I finally got ahold of her after several months, it was a mat. IDK why she made such a big deal about it, but any time I tried to look at it she'd run away.

The rooster killed your cat?
 
Yep, he sure did. Old grouchy game rooster spurred him right in the ear. I did what I could but that wasn't a vet freindly cat so the wound killed him. I found him and the rooster in the very back of the lawnmower shed. I had been looking for both for a couple days, did not expect to find them quite like that.:(

I dated a guy who made wine. He'd use the 5 gallon water jugs like you use in an office water cooler. Then he had this bubble thing that he put in place w/ a cork. This thing: https://www.amazon.com/Twin-Bubble-Airlock-Wine-Making/dp/B07FZ5TL87
It did the blub blub thing too, but I guess it helps do something. blah blah blah [I wasn't listening to him]. Not sure if it'd help you prevent future soggy booms though.

Freakfoot is so sweet, I am keeping her even if she turns out to be a boy. I love this weirdo bird already!

My teensy baby Serama. I put her under mom(s) last night. Doing great, eating well, hanging with the others. Trying to get her to get the concept of drinking water. We'll get there!

It is so awesome having a broody rear the chicks. Not only is it 1000 times easier and less messy, but it is so sweet to see them tibitting for the babies and teaching them how to act like chickens.

Every time I see a little chick face peering out from under Fergus's wing, it melts my heart.... :love
