From Ga, we are praying that all of you in the path of Harvey and it's increasing waters remain safe as well as your flocks. Personally I have family in Houston. God bless.

We have received a little over 9" rain so far. We have been under tornado warnings most of the night. One touched down in Missouri City. I don't believe there were any fatalities.

Our neighbors (6) came and stayed with us til a little after midnight.

My son just texted and said to watch out for the little floating balls of fire ants. He got stung good this morning.

My flock is doing okay. I went out at 6:15 and the adults were still on the roosts. The chicks were like little kids, running around chest bumping each other.

I hope and pray everyone is okay.

Are you near any of the rivers?
They are all going to be out of their banks soon.

My mom is over by you....they started evacuating half of her neighborhood now....getting them out while they can still get out. (Near Needville...wneh it rains a lot their neighbor's main road gets wash out---no one in or out for atlas 2 weeks is what they are being told)

How y'all Texans doing this morning? How does one keep themselves safe from 40"+, let alone chickens and other animals? My thoughts are with each and every one of you. Stay safe!

We prepare....get food and "stuff" to last for at least a week.

Hope everyone along the gulf is doing OK. I can't believe the effects we are feeling all the way to New Braunfels, tropical storm conditions, 50mph gusts and expecting to get 15 inches of rain!

I hope everyone in Harvey's path has their pantry's stocked well...
Good luck to all.

We won't get a direct hit in Ledbetter, but are scheduled for 25" of rain!!! We WILL flood, but being retired....we'll just stay at home.
I have moved my ducks into our shop in a temporary pen, they are NOT happy, but they ARE safe.
Everyone stay safe!

The rain keeps hitting us in waves...
Really hard for a little while then stops then hits again.
