This evening after mowing I was working on a new herb/flower bed that has some iris in it, but extremely neglected and was never an actual bed. Anyway as I was trying to clean it out of runner grass and other noxious weeds I became aware that runner grass roots are sentient, they seem to know if they wrap their roots around a plant that you planted or a tree that you can't get rid of them entirely.
Had a long day. Ready for a goodnight sleep, but instead I have a bunch of chirping going on in the hatcher.
DH spent some time on the tractor last night, he was working on the weeds that the rain has encouraged. He also took out all the okra DD had planted. This weekend we will be replanting it, along with melons more green beans, tomatoes & peppers
Good to hear the test results came out well cowboy!
Hey! Good to see you, missed your posts! the nn girl i got from you is a houdinie... when she wants to lay an egg we will see her tapping on the window to come in to lay... funniest little thing and the one legged hen is a riot! she is a fast little dickens on one leg... how have you been?
Carl, could you hatch a batch of Cochins for me? She's planning on sending them next week and both my incubators will be full with my Silver & Gold Laced Cochins eggs.
If you can.....could you do that whole Pullet Dust thing again? You hatched out 95% pullets for me the 2 hatches you did for me.
Mjgigax said: Pullet Dust? now that would be nice.
Carl...which one is it? I forgot to write it down.....
Young rooster.....older hens = more pullets
Older rooster...younger hens = more pullets
Muesky said Oh snap! Dang why was that infor not shared sooner. I will only put my oldest crotchy hens with my young roos and those long in the spur old grumpy roos with young girls. Pullets for everyone!!!
Wait for Carl to answer...it is one or the other. One pairing gives you more pullets and the opposite could be more cockerels.

An exhuberant man on a tractor is a danger to the garden...
Here is an update on the broodie girls
Delilah had four little chicks and Minerva has 5 possibly 6. Depends on if the last to hatch is strong enough to make it to the dry stage. I had to assist it out of the shell...it was shrink wrapped.
