It is good to see you back!
Good job on the tree.

I bought a little electric chain saw today to trim some trees here.

Those are handy to have for sure! DH has plenty of saws but this was a big tree and parts of it were in utility lines and parts were over the garage/house/fence. We figured we'd let the professionals handle this one!

Hi Sour, hope life is treating you well!
 
Hi everyone! I did post this in the egg laying forum, but I thought I would check here too! One of my BO hens has been in the coop for several hours, in a nesting box, out of a nesting box, watching her sisters lay their eggs...I'm beginning to think she might be having a problem! She's almost 5.5 months old and has been laying eggs for almost a month without any problems! When do you think I should start to be concerned? I'm hoping that she is not egg bound and I'm looking up those symptoms right now! Thanks!

If she starts laying down on the floor of the coop, I would give her a sitz bath with Epsom salts.

You did have a busy day! I was working on some of the same things that you were, but definitely not all! :)
