Surviving Minnesota!

[duluthralphie]

It’s been awhile since I’ve been on here. Life is busy even during this quarantine. I spent this weekend working on our new 20x20 pig barn. Mnchickmom says if DS makes her mad it will be turned into a chicken coop. She may have hatched mores birds then our coop can handle . Our rhubarb is coming up nicely also. Hope everyone stays healthy!!

A 20x20 barn is going to be able to hold a lot of marshmellows

So my grandson bought blue laced red Wyandotes . I noticed a single comb in the group . Might be more IDK yet . Not upset and here is why . Rosecomb is known to produce fertility problems in the males . Breeders in the know will use a cock carrying single comb for good fertility . This is in any breed with RC . Sharing knowledge .

I knew this!!!

Through intensive research and one well placed phone call I found out why I ended up with 2 single comb Dominques last year.

I got my honey factory up and running.

I did not get stung once. But I did accidentally kill a hundred bees or so. They were stuck to the bottom of the feed can and I didn’t see them and squished them.

I am thinking of taking a lawn chair out to watch my honey factory at work. Maybe have a tea with them.

Oops I forgot here is a picture of my employees making honey.

Note some of the squished workers.
