Okies in the BYC The Original

He is hoping to get out of it because I have class monday and wednesday and I take the car with ac and that would leave him with the van with out ac on those days. We only ever really use one vehicle the van almost never gets driven no matter the season because the car gets 31 to 35 mpg so we share it to conserve gas

Hey all it has been a busy morning. I have been back and forth between the two houses several times today. Made a call to school and after 2 seconds on the phone, I got my way. They told Jordan that if he went with us on Lauren's field trip, he would have to take an unexcused absence and he was banned from his own field trip. I was like, I don't think so. I understand the unexcused absence, but they are not banning him from his last field trip in grade school. He will not be riding the bus, he will not be eating with the younger kids, I had to pay for him to go, and no one will be home if he doesn't go. He is now going on both field trips and is taking the unexcused absence. His lowest grade, ever, is a 92. I think he can handle not being able to make up the work.

Al is the man. He has been assisting me over hte phone with my bathroom remodel. I just want to give props to him. He is great. I believe I now have everything in my Lowes.com shopping cart that I need. And to top it off, I am $3000.00 below budget! Can we say AVIARY SUPPLIES!!!!!!!

I am now searching online for the supplies to built the new runs for the chickens, ducks, and guineas. I am also searching for things to build a huge flight pen for the quail. (We got 8 eggs from them yesterday! We usually get 2-4 a day.)

I am hatching from my own eggs this time. There are some RIR, RIRxBSL, Rouen, RouenxPekinxRouen, and I'm gonna pop in two racks of quail tonight.


I just added up the price for new treated lumber to build the runs and it is only ~$200. Whoo hoo! Now I gotta find 4 foot high fencing. It seems all they have is 2 or 3 ft high.

I had a hen like that. I thought she had a cut or something so I put her in warm water to clean it so I could look. After about 2 minutes soaking, her intestines fell out.
