Yes. We love it up there. We lease property there. We live in Louisiana south of port sulphur. That where we have all our birds.

We have 5 acres in Louisiana and I love it. I'm originally from Key Largo Florida. So I love the space.

Someone posted a whitish crib that was converted -- was that yours?  Great idea.

No. I took one of those outdoor child/pet pins that we got when my son was born and turned it into one. I'll try to get a picture if I can figure out how to post it.

Well, TJ is down toward Mobile (I think) and I'm 50 miles south of Montgomery.  Hurtsboro is northeast of Union Springs (east of Montgomery).

Yep. Mobile county.

just sitting on the I-10/I-65 split.

So did I but the kids needed the jackets. They got cold

I was running around in a tank top during the day and everyone was asking if I was cold.

Might be a bit chilly for that. Better wear your wet suit for that.

Nothing fancy, but this is my coop. The tank on the top is an automatic gravity fed watering system ( which I love) waters everything chickens , turkey's, quail pheasants, and rabbits. I planted the grape vine last year for them to eat and mess with. They love that when it blooms. I'm in south louisiana so I worry more about the heat than the cold . They will start free rangeing in spring this flock is only 5.5 months old. My last flock got eaten by my neighbor who had alltimers. All 42 birds. 2 at a time. Lol it suked but he was a funny old coot. He's gone now. So I got a mix of orphingtons, gold and silver laced, polish, and bard rocks. And 3 turkey's in that 20X 20 . The 20X10 has a few ring necks , quail lose and new Zealand Whites in cages,

So you were the one that posted a while back about the neighbor taking a couple chickens at a time from you? GL with your new flock - it'll be a bit tricky safely free-ranging the Polish since they are skittery and don't see well through their crest fluff to evade hawks. Your Lab is good with the birds?

I wish it was that warm up here! only 42 right now. Not that Im whining Id rather have to add layers of cloths there's only so much I can take off and still leave my house. I don't like the heat.
