The rest of the silkie eggs are enroute

mandarins hatching now.. geese starting to internally pip..

yokohamas due to hatch out this week too!


sorry if I missed anything (been uber busy)
the weekend bird projects went off without a hitch.. total caponized: 25 (0 losses)
total butchered: 12

everyone went home with 5 capons, a butchered bird and a caponizing kit

sad thing is I didn't keep any capons for myself!

gotta raise up some more to age then I can start some for myself!
at least I kept a set of tools for myself.. gotta order more surgical tools before i can think about giving them away again.. *sighs*

I will be mostly offline for the next little while. Between my grandbaby being born and my uncle dieing this morning - there's a lot of emotional upheaval going on around here and I'm just needing some quiet time. I wish you all the joy of each day spent with loved ones. I'll be back soonish.

Congrats on your grandbaby! I am sorry for the loss of your uncle.

Hi what kind of mandarins are you hatching? I bought some eggs off ebay for white mandarins got 5 eggs only 2 developed and it looks like only one is going to hopefully hatch. hatch day is this saturday

Did you know the girl and her Mom who stole your cow?  Are they neighbors?

I had leased them to a girl I knew through another friend. I leased her two mature cows, one with a weaning age heifer by her side, and one due to calve. She was suppose to be showing them for her senior year of high school.

She sold one, which we didnt know onviously, and the long short of it, basically wouldn't allow us to pick up the others when we decided to take them back due to lack of care.

Here are the pictures the lady sent us yesterday
