Morning..


I am sitting with my third. I have really cut down my consumption with that big cup. There was a time a few weeks ago I would be on my 5th or 6th cup by now.

Glad to hear you have things moving along there, Alaskan - I know that even finding a buck to breed them to has been problematic for you.

I know spotting a doe cycling can be tricky, though not always. My goats can see my back door, and as they often get handouts of kitchen scraps, bread "heels" or whatever, they tend to sound off whenever someone comes out the door. One goat's voice really changed when she was in season; instead of just a nagging bleat, she'd really scream when she was in estrus. I remember Hubby walking out the door and remarking, "someone's killing Esme again."

Hah!

Yeah, my does are "closet" girls... Except for one girl that flags her tail, very clearly and perpetually (the one getting bred as we speak) the other two....

@duluthralphie I did cut back a few years ago as doc wanted but still have my two cups
even if the are doubles both from ti8me to time... figure this did not get number two today
went to see my Ma living in a care home she has dementia (senility) we have to lay these big fancy names
on things anymore well this brainiac left her purse wallet everything at home... Ma is 1 1/2 hour drive
then we head back via Olympia then Centrailia for grocery shopping
I am the only one with access to our joint account..

Good Sunday morning friends!
Well,it has begun. This morning I had to carry my hammer with me as I walked about opening the coop and inspecting the run, the ice cap now too thick in some of the water dishes to just be displaced with the heel of my rubber boots. As this was the first truly " crispy" morning, I waited to open the girls toasty coop until after some of the "crunch" was gone from the grass. The young ones came charging out with their usual youthful fervor, the older, wiser, hens were a bit less eager to get their toes cold but soon all were out doing their best to soak up the morning sun, even my poor molty hen that still looks so rough she has been re-named Roadkill.

Can't help but look forward to the reaction of the youngsters when they come charging out and encounter their first snow.

You are colder than I am... Frost in the mornings... Some ice in the water pans...but not much.

Sympathy to the early winter peepers. Can't believe its October. Went to Target to get stuff for Halloween and they have Christmas lights etc for sale. Halloween is pretty picked through because they probably put it out in July...
