Rats......small critters that are a pita

Good morning folks.....hope everyone has a cooler day than what we have had lately

Yes, it was a bit cooler today. I pulled a lot of weeds out of the garden . Drilled holes in two of the chicken tractors, inserted large eye hooks. Then I hooked up the chain to the mule, and moved them over to Chicken City . I had them spread out into different pastures when I was letting them out, but I am trying to get them all in a central location so my friend will have less running around to do when she is caring for them. It sure is lots easier to move them using the Mule! I pushed them out there by hand, though DH helped me move one.
Chicks are hatching like crazy, so I called the guy that wants them. Naturally his voicemail is full.

. At least I had a nice nap today
What have you guys been doing?

I almost finished a 4+8 double pen today. We have about 85 white homing pigeons and had then for years .We do wedding and funerals ,so tomorrow i'm going to fort smith to do a funeral i'ts at 2 pm and i'ts going to be over a 100. I'ts a hour and a half from my house so i i'm a little worried about the pigeons. But they have flow further than that ,but it sure is hot.

Sounds like Coach got some good work done today. Hope the birds make their flight ok. I did manage to build a nest box today out of a wooden crate. Plus I cleaned up the yard some. We had a little bit of rain, I thought I was never going to get the critters fed. I was pulling weeds when DH came home, he just went ahead and made supper. What a guy.

Today I was laying low. Heart palpitations are bothering me so I don't want to overdo it. Tonight I went to check the Bator,and this little brown thing is running around so fast I thought it was a mouse! Then I look closer and it's a baby quail!! My first one, so tiny and precious! I had to go show DH. Now I really need to get busy and build that brooder. I put it in the fish tank on paper towels. Hope another one hatches out soon to keep it company. I was thinking I should make it round so they don't jam up in corners. So I put game bird crumbles in there, maybe I will give it egg in the morning. Just adorable!
