As a Texan, how often does this happen to you? You swear up and down you haven't eaten anything spicy in days but your body say's something different?

My sneak attack spicy were jalapeno poppers.

1. Why haven't you eaten anything spicy?
2. Your body is detoxing.
3. Not everyone experiences the afterburn.

Crazy Lady claims that I have cauterized my system.

Seriously, why haven't you eaten anything spicy? Are you feeling well? Do you have the covid?

I just haven't made it to breakfast taco mecca lately. Been socially avoiding and wearing that mask. And yeah just a jalapeno based treat shouldn't count! I like point number 2, detox.

Oh and Rico isn't selling tamales in the Dollar General parking lot either. Either he or his wife makes a nice angry salsa verde.

Howdy! Just joined BYC and I have a Delaware, Buff Orpington, and a couple of Amberlinks. One of my Amberlinks turned out to be a Rooster. Anyone near New Braunfels, TX that needs or can take a Rooster?

Hi, I am in search of a drakeling or young drake, yes that's right a drake. I had my young Rouen killed by a snake this morning and I have 10 or more hens. They are too young to support and adult drake, they need a month or two more. Not picky about breed but no pekins. Most of my hens are half runner and a bit on the small side.

Well our 1st silkies and brown egg surprise hatchlings are all very healthy and growing fast..... I'm slowing getting the coop & run readjusted.

Oh we definately want photos of your coop restructure. Bonus points if you can either tick off the HOA or out cheap me! Since you are in Denton County, must be a nearby HOA to annoy. I'd probably paint the coop in LGBTQ colors or something.

1) no HOA. Our neighborhood covenant is now null & void as all lots are sold/used.
2) cheapout? Done. The only thing I bought was a couple boxes of screws in May/ June for multiple projects.
3) paint? I'll be redoing the (same)blue color and finishing the trim color much later this summer.
4) I've almost got the cleanout drop-down doors finished as well.
5) need to adjust the exhaust fan position just a tad bit still
6) still have the doggy door to the small yard that needs installed

I acquired lumber from the local tractor store. They have VERY nice shipping pallets. Lots of 1"x4" lumber free for the asking. And like putting lipstick on a pig, a coat of paint does wonders.

Run to the dump and get wire refrigerator shelves for a door and maybe a couple of walls.

Cheap? Redneck? No, environmentally conscience!

{Edit "wisely"}, environmentally conscience!

I too have done that several times from our TSC.

I also got a full pallet of "stickers" from Lowe's as well.... Those ~48" long shipping sticks of lumber are very useful and free too.
