Surviving Minnesota!

20 chicks hatched from the 22 eggs that went into lockdown. One was a late quitter and the other was an early quitter - that must have been the stinky egg. Not sure how I missed it. I also don't know what any of these little ones are aside from the obvious EE's. I was told pure stock, but I don't think so. The one is a Showgirl. I know that much. First time seeing one!

Grats on the babies MnNice


You take great pictures, just wait until Holm is your BIL, the pictures the two of you take will be award winning!







I assume Kloppers is in tax time work now. Rhett ad Misty have not been on in ages.

Holm will be the best BIL ever. Lol

I got some pretty nice apple and Pear trees from that place on the corner of 47 and 95 between Princeton and Cambridge. 8-9 feet tall and pretty decent root balls.

There's a few places out that way - was it Meyer's? I've been getting most of my fruit trees from the Green Barn in Isanti. I need to get a few more started weeping willows this Spring from them as well. I did buy a bunch of Oaks and Maples 75%-95% off at Fleet Farm last Fall to fill in where we're losing trees. You can't beat buying a 9ft+ tree for that cheap, but I also didn't care too much what I bought.

Tell her Ralphie. Coffee is not bad for you but is the life blood of civilized existence.
Do you have any new chicks today Ralphie ?

My cousin tried telling me Coffee is bad for you. My face looked something like this:

good morning people

-12 here this morning but a big warm up coming tomorrow!

Brrrrrrrrrr. My poop boards need a good warm up.

One can hope. Otherwise, he better brush up on his lady charming skills. Maybe borrow a page out of JJ's book 'Ladies: A Turkey's Guide to Finding Love'.

BC this video should convince you to get Guineas. Look how calm they are? This dumby got in the back half of the coop and I needed to get him out so I could leave but he would not go out the door!

Ralphie have you noticed Guineas lose feathers really easily?

Me... Pick me.... I've noticed that. When I was grabbing those birds for deportation they seemed to lose enough to fill a pillow with!
