Morning, TN folks! Okla-Doodle-Doo inspired me to get cracking on our TN thread, since he does such a great job staying connected on his Okie thread. It really is good for us to keep up with our local crazy chicken people.
. . . so here's something only you all would understand (maybe): I stopped by my parents' new house yesterday evening, and was chatting away with them and my SIL and enjoying a nice glass of wine. Every time I lifted my glass, though, I kept getting this waft of chicken poo - - and the wine wasn't French. After a couple of surreptitious sniffs (still not sure my SIL didn't catch that), I remembered I was wearing the same jacket I had worn to clean the pens that day, and on the bottom of my left sleeve, well, you can guess the rest.
Ya just can't take me anywhere. *sigh*
stanglover, glad you got things cleaned up. I broke my "between-storm cleanup" into two days so it wasn't so bad. There's nothing worse than adding icy water to a poo-filled pen. . . except maybe trying to scrape it out after the fact! Clean and dry, that's what I like!
emvickrey, glad your hen is hanging on. I would be tempted to pop her with Tylan 50 for a few days, but there's something to be said for breeding for resistance to stuff like that and jut letting it take its course.
Eggs are Good, welcome! Good to have another chicken picker on board. I'm east of Nashville, just west of Lebanon. There are lots of great people around the forum who can enable your chicken habit.
Robo, are you all frozen over there? We had 48 and rain this morning. It feels so warm after all that awful cold that my banty roos are all hollering outside this morning . . . four little sassy mouths feeling pretty good about life right now in their covered pens.
Hey there bikechick! Glad you're here. Oh Lord, you met up with Holly and Ann. . . better start building more pens, LOL!
Did you make your water heater, or buy one? Pics?
I didn't do it..I didn't provide her with any of her new found addiction.So how are the chicks doing?
