Surviving Minnesota!

[Coffee 1st]

Mornin'
Kloppers, have fun at Gma's B-bay party. I also think it is a vole that lost its tail somewhere. they make tunnels in our grass every winter along our retaining wall.

BC looks like you just need to dry it out in there some. Maybe add sweet PDZ under the pine shavings, or add more shavings (I don't know if you use shavings) or open higher ventilation to draw moisture out like you and Blanch said. stinkin' moisture.

Blanch, lol, nice play on words... but run! lol

Got my hen cam up. I may have to move it though, we'll see. they spend 90% of their time under the henhouse. I have it out in the bigger part of the run, more room out there, so that is why I wanted it there. we'll see

very cool...

Thanks! I captured them on the branch, I usually don't get to see them on there as they come a running when I head out there, but here they are:
HenCam

@Coffee 1st how is that little girl? is she looking better?

 

[Cluckies]

Well, back to work for me tomorrow after a full week off... not looking forward to it. my boss's last day was last Wednesday. I hate it when he even goes on vacation cause, as you know, stuff rolls downhill... so yeah,

oh well, could be worse

I have my hencam working so can keep an eye on the girls anywhoo

We are set to get a dump of snow tomorrow. should be interesting to see what really happen...

 

[KlopKlop]

we have 2-3" on the ground already. i guess this is really happening.

The girls will probably stay in the coop all day.

Nothing here, YET, I am in Shakopee again today. But it looks ugly, cloudy out.

My day is starting bad. I forgot to bring a coffee maker. Theirs is broken and my grandkid's parents don't drink coffee so who knows when they will get a new one.

I forgot to bring more coffee grounds too! I was forced to boil water and pour it slowly over the ground in their broken coffee grounds. They only have folgers coffee, ( slightly better than drinking rat poison and milk). The coffee is terrible, but at least I have caffine!

I hope the day gets better.

I think you should make your hencam public!!!! WHen I go down to trade my wife in for the newer model I will be without chickens for 10-14 days, What am I to do?


I am betting Carrie Underwood is excited to meet me and can hardly wait! I hope she decides to leave her kid with her current hubby. I really do not want a full time kid anymore.

I have another Turkey that Mr. Porter wants a picture of for his website!

He wants him to be in full show off mode. A nice clear picture. I do not have one yet of him, like that. He is camera shy and a lurky, he does not like to be held. But will follow me, but when I turn to follow him heruns away.


And this one has a name. It is "ginger". My Wife named it. We were not sure if it was a He or a she. Now that we know it is a he, the name has stuck. Pour guy going through life with a name like Ginger. Maybe a Johnny Cash impersonator will write a sone about him.

Does anyone's town do this? In town they plow the snow to the center then later in the day come through with trucks and a big snowblower to haul it away. Good in theory except this huge ribbon of slow blocks all but the most major intersections. In my truck, it's not a big deal but there are always cars going high center on the pile trying to make a turn. Yay winter!!!
