Scored a bunch of free risers yesterday. They'll work well for footings on my coops.

At least 4.
I think we've decided on buying livestock Shelters and dividing them in half.

Eta I've still got the chanteclers living on my porch.

That sounds like a great way to go! Are you dividing up to start a breeding program (you got some Chantaclers, right?) Ok, I don't know how to spell that word, hope you know what I mean

Yup. I've got buckeyes, chanteclers and bantams. We'll be getting some true RIR (show quality) in a few months' time from the lady I got the buckeyes from. We'll be keeping all of the breeds separate. The juvies will go into the existing coop until they're big enough for me to decide if they stay or are culled.

I'm not planning on showing, but hopefully be able to start selling hatching eggs and chicks.

TSC has chicks. "Just sayin'."

I went to two feed stores with chicks and was able to resist both!

Remarkable restraint Cap!

I'm resisting going near those stores. Mind you, around here they aren't available until the beginning of May.

Well, to be honest, they were just run of the mill breeds. Some of the bigger ones had pasty butt. They never learn.

Good Morning Friends

Just checking … oh yeah, it is still morning Been at work 3.5 hours and already had 43 HD tickets .. welcome to Monday morning!

Kelsey Kelpies do not really need to ‘work’ as such but they do need to be kept amused and active. Great pics

Ron the chocolate sourdough cake sounds delish

Michelle “It is not recommended to feed chickens chicken”?? Do not tell my girls that, they love it! They had leftover turkey roll for breakfast this morning.

Bob yep, that dehydrator is the same as mine. Ooops, sorry to hear about the bread.

Predicted maximum of 89.5F today with an 80% chance of showers and/or an afternoon tropical storm.

The cake is very good! I did not get a picture of it but it looked similar to this:



I did not get the lines to look as good because it says to drizzle the chocolate--They obviously piped it!
