My barred frizzle pullet from my own stock
 
Pretty bird! :)

We had 5 inches of rain. All birdies are good.

We had almost 11 inches! I'm on a slope so we had our own 11 inches plus the 11 inches from the hill above. At 2:00 a.m. I was out in the rain clearing water away from my front door. There were white water rapids a hundred feet wide across my front yard. We had a lot of rain. The dried creek bed behind the house was still raging late yesterday.
 
okay opening myself to opinions........ I don't like dark. I have mobility issues and can't outrun scary things. I was thinking of putting a few of those inexpensive solar lights right around the coop. Thinking of a twofold benefit- I can see better and maybe provide some light to help with winter laying. Runnin electricity out there is not an option at this time
 
I love to have solar system to provide some light at night around the coop too. It also helps keep the predator away. Anyone know how to set this up? price? pro & con?
 
I just found a great deal on dried mealworms. I have been going to Lowes, because their 7 oz cup was $7, so a much better deal than TSC's 10 oz container for $15. Well, apparently the company that was supplying Lowe's with those cups has decided on bigger packaging! A 20oz bag for $15!!! That's almost 3 cups worth for 2/3's of the price. I've cut back on the amount of worms my flock gets, because with 45 of the buggers, they go through an entire cup in one treat session, and that gets expensive on a regular basis.
