Surviving Minnesota!

I'm assuming you have to have quite a few males if you have multiple nests going for hatching? That's interesting. Do they take only one mate?

I think of you every time I want to get rid of my KC trio! They're so noisy today. The water is frozen and they hate the snow. I told them to get their act together.
So far 4 breeding males. Yes, they mate for life. Occasionally if a hen's mate isn't around she will breed with other males.

Haha, don't do it!

Ducks actually seem to do a lot better in snow than chickens. Are you getting eggs from them?

Canning pumpkin today . Blustery day outside . Firearm season so I will respectfully not cut firewood in my woods this weekend . Needed to get the squash and pumpkin moved in anyway . I think I will can the acorn squash this year . DW always waits until they rot to want some . So come February she is in the mood for squash . Basement is really too warm and garage is not heated enough to keep them when it hits zero outside . This way I will not have to sort them .
 
OMG..... CMT has a "movie" on CMT called "Chicken People" and it's playing on Wednesday! You guys have to record it! Especially EJB! They all cuddle and love on their show birds just like EJB and Jerry!

Sorry Jerry does not cuddle chickens . I am more likely to pull them out of trees the night before a show .

I can't remember the last time I saw an egg from any of my ducks. They started staying out in the pond at night....then, started getting eaten....now I have them penned up. I'm assuming they had a nest of eggs somewhere, but I couldn't find one. There's plenty of weed beds in the pond. I know my Muscovy's won't lay this winter, but I hope to get some from my KC's once they get settled into the life of boundaries.

Maybe EJB and Jerry are reality stars and we have no idea that we're in the presence of greatness.

That's a shame! Hopefully you get some soon.
 
Sad day here,!!!!

My Dominique cockerels were disqualified for stubs.

I never saw them. They were so small. The judge must have super X-Ray vision to see them.

On the good side she wrote excellent body type on the ones card..

Next time I use a magnifying glass

I was clerking for Diana... You had to look on the feet and the feather stubs were apparent. The one was really bad and other only had a few.

Thanks for the HUG!!!!!!!! XOXOXO It was great meeting you. Sorry I was a little busy and had to shoo people out of the aisle while judging was going on.
