I got this one at the RenFaire. And my green one...I've got some of the cheap chinese ones, but much prefer a measured corset to a S-5X...prefer steel bones, though I believe this one is surgical grade plastic bones. I got it for the very unique hardware on the front. My next one will be all leather. Looking at Steelbones or Stormy Leather. You're up towards New Hope, right? Le Chateau Exotique carries some awesome corsets, and can help fit you.

Wing, that's the only place I don't lose weight...which means I'm currently up to a J cup...and with still losing weight..it could go higher....ugh! I'm gonna topple over one of these days from being so top heavy!

I'm about 2.5 hours NW of there. The store here is great! She does the measurements and orders them in or gives you the measurements to order yourself. She finally found me bras that fit, AND kept the girls in place. I had no clue I was up to a F or G depending on cut/design, then again most places don't sell anything larger than a DD. Now if they'd stop growing I'd be happy...not looking forward to having another kid for that reason alone. Anyway she sells pin-up era inspired lingerie as well as the corsets, cinchers, and the run of the mill stuff. I love her store, and her stuff has been featured in a few of the modern pin-up magazines.
The hardware on that one is lovely, there is one I want to get at her store with tons of embroidery and beading. I wish I had a pic of it, it's lovely. I still need to figure out the fabric, clasps and boning I want, which I guess means I need to figure out if it'll be worn under, over or both.
You sound like me with where weight doesn't come off, and it's such a pain. Band goes down so cup goes up...although my other half doesn't mind.

I stuck my head in the coop and there was a bit if a strong "kicker" smell. I would assume its ammonia? By the way, it wasn't overwhelming so I'm still debating if it's ammonia.

It's weird though because I just cleaned the coop for the first time in early September, after going about 5 months using the deep litter method, and now 1 month later it had that smell.

Maybe it's because my chickens are bigger which means more and bigger poop? I got five chickens and my coop is 4x4, with a 3 inch round vent in front and a 10"x8" window in the back that's always open, along with the front 12"x10" front door that's always open.

Any deep litter method professionals here?

What is with the ladies? We went from no broody hens to 4 in a few days (3 tetras and one who was sold as a NH but I think she's a RSL), and one who is still deciding if she want's to sit. Reminds me of some places I've worked, one woman gets pregnant and within 6 months it seems like 1/2 the department is...

Gavin decided to work on carving his two pumpkins today and yesterday. I have no clue why insists on sitting on the stones in the driveway instead of the grass...

These were only a few of the birds, I couldn't fit everyone in. Most of the flock was circling like sharks lol.



Inspection and tasting

Mary, our one BCM who can't decide if she wants to be broody or not, stealing innards yesterday.

Nobody ever claims to be a poo expert.....heat+poo = smell.....my two cents....lol

BG my crew went bonkers a day ago....lots of snits...today its back to usual...I dunno....
 
If you place a carved pumpkin in the run-------I wonder how long it will be safe for the chickens to peck at..............

I may wait at least a week because its so hot right now the pumpkins might go bad quickly?

what is your experience with pumpkins and chickens you all?
