How did you "survive" without your cell phone for 3 days? I have been known to turn around and go back home if I forget to pick mine up on the way out the door to work.

I may not have even noticed it was missing except my brother called the house phone and wanted to know why i wouldn't answer my cell phone. I don't hear it go off half the time anyway.
Not sure if it is the old phone or my old ears.

So are you gonna be selling A frame COOPS at POOPS?
Or at least trhe blueprints?

Monty,
We can do it now either way, I ussually give the plans away to anyone that wants them, or I help the boys build them in 8 ft x 6 ft and 12 ft x 6 ft. versions, both are only 3 ft tall, for those who don't want to build thier own. The boys get extra spending money and learn the value of thier time that way.

You guys came bring some plans to the next Blanchard Auction if you want.

LOL, funny you should say that because that is one that I had found for a new chicken for our shirts providing I am still the one doing them that is. I think I will do a poll for the colors this year.

I am going to close the bottoms in when I get home. a feed sack & hay will be easy enough.

I love the Design AND that color combo.

Lynn, the storm windows are a great addition to your pens. I bet they really help retain the heat. Your birds are handsome as well.

Oh man I love that shot of those piggies! Sure wish I was back there I wool be getting some of those. They are my favorite color!
There were some young stags the color of that white roo at the last sale. They ended up bring $6-7 each. I wondered what they would look like dubbed.

Evening P& B

Evening everyone, just got in the house from finishing making the chickens alittle warmer. I lost Madison's lemmon blue hen last night, not sure if it was the cold or not. She didn't seem to be sick but might of just got too cold. She was in with her roo but somehow I wonder if that was enough. I have feed sacks with hay blocking part of the bottom & they were already closed in on three sides. If I still have problems I will close in the bottom front so no air can come from underneath. I gathered eggs while I was out there, have them setting out to thaw!

Steph I want plans to the A Frame too. Please

News flash! It was bitter cold this morning, it never got above freezing today and the temperature is dropping like a rock again.

Need to go feed and water before it gets any colder.
