If you lived in FL you would know jalousie, lots of doors and windows like that.
 
Yep, the 4 x legs have a moat in which you put vegetable oil which will not evaporate as fast as water .... so far, so good!

Beautiful bird on the banana palm Jae!! Really pretty flower too.


And that is supposed to be news? ;) I am technically 4b but we are inching our way to 5a. We haven't gone below -20°F for quite a few years.


So inquiring minds want to know: Who lets you out? Do you have your cell phone with you so you can call for assistance? I'd get that string or wire tied to the "trigger" of the latch and run through the wall ASAP. The neighbors might call the cops on your parents for keeping their child in a cage.


Welcome to fall Teila!


Don't plant them until after last frost, they don't "do" frost.

Yeah, I feel like all the zones will be shifting soon!!

And OMG! :lau Thanks for the laugh! Needed it, one of my favorite bands and friends just broke up. :hit

But yeah, I always carry my phone so I call my parents. Or if someone is outside with me, like when we moved them, I yell out the window at them

Lol, the only reason I even knew to use that term is because I happened to be reading a BYC thread not too long ago where someone was using them for their coop :D
 
Here we're supposedly in Zone 4b...but we have this annoying micro-climate so the charts just don't apply accurately.

Okay, guys, I dunno whether to laugh or cry. I wanted to record a little video just before Jenny came to pick up Kendra, but my stupid smart phone said it was full. Huh? There's only 1771 photos and 221 videos on that thing, how can it be full? So after Jenny left I decided to go through them and transfer some, delete others. Things were going fine - then I ran into this little gem. I think it was probably taken in 2016, because she has a set of braces on and her hair was long enough for braids. Anyway, it's a short one - she was standing in the doorway watching the chickens. Something tickled her - just listen to her. The video made me giggle along, but then it hit me how much she enjoyed watching them. Man, do I miss the interaction of the kids with the chickens!

Edited to add: You know, I never caught this before but when she turns to me and says it's cold, do you hear her say "Walk walk, it's cold" or is that wishful thinking on my part? I sure missed hearing it before!
