Yancy:

I sleep like a rock in the winter.......from about 10:30 or midnight until 8 or 9 am. During spring, some times I don't sleep for a couple of days, sometimes I do get one or two hours a night.
Summer I can only sleep in teh afternoons for 3-4 hours usually. Last year was a little different though! I slept early mornings most times........4a-9p!

I would love to try something so I am not drunk or fuzzy headed or anything else the next morning! Everything I have ever tried makes me feel wonky the next day.... Does Walgreens carry Alteril?

 

[ChickyChickyBaby]

WOW...I only have 67,plus 3 quail,and one pigeon...then 99 quail eggs in bator(one or 2 already stinking) and 23 in other bator with 31 waiting to set!!

I just realized I forgot all the D'uccles....OH WELL..HEHE

OK.....counting DH's hens, ducks, guineas & turkeys, I THINK.......WITHOUT COUNTING......NOT COUNTING EGGS AND CHICKS...... we have about 100 .. I reckon. Maybe. I know roughly 70-75 is counting ducks, DH's hens, and silkies.

DH will kill me. During molt, they attacked each other til they bled. then picked each other til it killed all but two boys. No matter how I separated them they still did that.

I quit on quail.

Considering I hatch in a LG still air, yes.

I have eggs hatching now. I stick some in daily when the silkies weren't broody. So something hatches almost daily. Two yesterday, one today so far.

I have some shipped eggs - 11 out of 14 started developing, I just removed 3 that I was hoping for but with jiggly air sacs, it is no surprise they did not go further.... So that leaves 8 from that shipment.

AMY - so far Forrest's first 2 eggs were not fertile.

How were the bees?!?!?! No more bears I hope!!!

My Daffodils are in full bloom!!! Time for the bees to get busy making that wonderful honey! My DD is bringing me some creamed honey from Southern Bee Lady tomorrow...I can hardly wait to try it!

The bees are looking good.

I checked some hives at my house. The first major honey flow will be in April-May when the Tulip Poplar/blackberries/holly start blooming. They are bring in some maple now but it is only good for them to raise babies with.
Not exactly a good flavor.

Hope you like the creamed honey.

We had bee class last night. I'm so confused!

I didn't realize we were counting guineas and all our other animals.
