[misskeeter]

i would like to grow some vineing plants on my run but i do not know if i can my run is half in the goat pen lol and what ever i put there the goats might eat.

you could always plant something on the chicken side.. the goats could eat whatever reached them, but the chickens could still have shade.
You could always plant sunflowers on one side for shade too...

It's cold out there today

Birds asked me to turn up the heat.

We're expecting rain and a drop in temperature. Barn cats look extra puffy, almost as if they put on an extra coat. Track and golf events are going to confuse the schedule a bit. Wish we had event days rather than combined school and event days. It's a nightmare keeping up with team members. Beaded design projects turned out well : ) Paper Mache sculpture is next.

 Joe - wonderful to see you.  Thanks for showing me around.  I'm missing Orson.  He used to follow me and talk to me as I filled water containers in the pens at the barn.  He always got along with the others, so he had more free-range time.  Andrea has a nice place.  I'd love to bring birds on a dry day. . . maybe this event will happen again : ) 

it was so nice to get to visit I wish we had more time I still had lost to show you but I find myself extermly busy these days all the birds are settled in nicely and I have already gotten 3 eggs im looking forward to our next visit

Donnie - great to get to see you agin it has been a long time sorry I did not get to talk more but that's how it gose when you are working

yea, i guess that would work, and sunflowers would be cool then the chickens could eat the seed also.

Good morning friends and neighbors!
It`s gonna be a cold and wet all day...42°F and light rain here this morning, we need a good slow rain! I hope y`all have a great day!

Wouldn't count on that!!!!! When I planted a whole patch of sunflowers the greedy wild birds scarfed them all up before the chickens could get one seed. I really didn't mind the chickens are well fed and the wild birds need to eat too, but I have heard you can bag the flowers after pollination while the seeds are maturing.

Back when my neighbor kids were young I would do crafts w/ them some. We made paper mache bowls over balloons for the shape, then after they dried we painted them, the kids had a ball.
