Lol holms. Your addiction is palpable.

I just got back from a little evening cruise in the car. What a beautiful evening to meet MNChickMom and her hubby and two cute chicken enthusiasts. About the nicest family you’ll ever meet.

Ok you know how teenagers are sometimes solemn and don’t care about meeting people. These kids are not like that! They looked you in the eye. Excited about selling their precious eggs.
Oh man, they must have good parents or something.

Looks like we’ll be setting some BOs and Doms. So excited. Also getting some buff Cochin eggs from holms our famous weatherman/ cat salesman. I hear he does not have snowballs for sale for the eskimos though. Lol.

These meat birds are turning out to be a unique challenge. One female, by far the largest of them all, will not let me keep from bonding with her. I try to not get attached and yet whenever my hand is in the brooder box she comes straight over and jumps right on to scoot up my arm and cuddle up in the crook of my elbow. How do I not smuggle her away to not get eaten?

In a more serious challenge, I have one that started sitting more than normal due to the fact when he walks it is like he is extremely drunk. He is getting dosed with Vitamins and I’m witholding food for a while to see if there’s any change. I’m not sure what mortality rate to expect with these hybrid meat birds...

Aside from chickens, I see we have fifty degrees in the forecast for near the end of the week. I can not wait for the chance to let my birds out once the ground dries up.

Well I assume my eyes are failing me... Even with my glasses on my eyes are screwed up... Could spring actually be here?

Good morning

Morning Erlibird.

Morning. I might have to try crappie fishing this week if it is getting above 50. Hopefully I can get the boat in the water now.

However, I am not overly optimistic with the current 20 degrees.

Good morning all!
