Morning Sharron!

I hope you can work in the garden and have some nice weather today. You took some of the plants you started in FL back home with you, didn't you? How have they adjusted?

It's a chilly 35* here this morning. We're supposed to get rain this afternoon, turning into snow tonight. This time of year though, it shouldn't amount to much.
yes. most of them are still in the greenhouse here, the leeks i started down there i put into the garden here and are doing fine, the onions are still in the greenhouse , the cucumber vine died for some strange reason after giving me one little cucumber, (it was delicious)
its 42 here now but going up to 61, cloudy so i might be able to get out there long enough to play in the dirt
 
Totally understand that🤔 when the kids lived here, it was not an issue.

we did in the big garden before and I think we did in this one in the beginning. The shredder paper worked good last year for us and we have lots of junk mail.
Rain and winds today :( we are in the 50s

That's a good use of the junk mail!
 
Good morning everyone 😊. Have a great day

Good morning folks :frow

How did I miss that yesterday?! Adorable babies Cap. 🥰

Only one of my chicken eggs is showing development. The eggs, despite getting to me overnight, look like they had a rough ride up. On candling them before I set them I found very loose, wobbly air cells. The yolk doesn't look right in the 2 that haven't done anything. Unfortunately getting more than 6 eggs meant a big jump in the cost to post them up here. I didn't even think about the fact that more would be better in case of a situation like this. :hit

If that baby makes it I'm going to have fun finding it a friend. I have emailed the lady we are getting our rabbit off as she may still be hatching eggs. If she isn't then I might email the lady up here that runs and organises the poultry show for Northland. She will hopefully be able to track someone down for me that's hatching still.

One of my duck eggs looks to have quit but I did think it was strange it wasn't as developed as the other two from the same nest. I now have 5 out of the remaining 6 pressing against the inner membrane and the 6th one is still moving. It's like they are waiting for everyone to be ready. Then they can take their leisurely time driving me crazy while I hover over them. I'm wondering how noisy they'll be as the incubator is in the cupboard outside the kids rooms. I've only hatched quail in the incubator.
:frow Good evening Jae, hope you had a good day. And just fyi, ducklings are very noisy.
Good morning everyone, time to start a new day! 🌅
:frow Good morning Debby, have a great day
