turtle dove, just got lost maybeI'm done for today, other than feeding and chook rotation. Getting the girls back in the right pen was fun yesterday afternoon. The older pullets decided they liked the other girl's pen better and were camped out in it. Meanwhile the younger ones were parked outside waiting to get in again. Shoosh shoosh shoosh you guys. Finally got all the big kids in their round pen and the younger ones went in their pen by themselves. All except Turtle Dove. It took 15 minutes and I finally had to pick her up and put her in. She couldn't find the door!
This morning I got 75% of the Serendipity Plains knocked down again. Woot! Now to cool off and rehydrate.. Must rehydrate!
No, Turtle Dove is not quite 100% mentally intact due to an injury when she was young. Took her quite a while to regain motor control in her legs. She avoids the other chooks in her pen maybe to avoid being pecked again. She roosts alone away from the others at times, and when they get to go out, she's off wandering by herself. She's maybe lost, but only in her own mind.turtle dove, just got lost maybe![]()
It sounds like a useful present!Last night, I was told to close my eyes. The kids lugged in this big box. When I was finally allowed to open my eyes, they presented me with a birthday card, and my very own shop vac. It's a bit early, but I've been wanting a shop vac.
Yes we already have one, but it's the kind that's dual purpose with the leaf blower on it. Dh mostly uses the leaf blower, so whenever I want to use it as a vacuum, I have to hunt down the motorized part. Not to mention that both he, and Dd #1 use it to vacuum out their cars, and leave it in the garage, instead of putting it back on the patio when they finish using it. Now, I have one of my own, that I can keep on the patio. YAY!
If you are making huge batches try and cut down on what you are fermenting. Another way is to let it get low then add scratch/feed and more water, so the next batch ferments faster. There are some eggcellent articles on fermenting food on the forums.trying fermented feed this morning, now can i add to it or replace with a new batch, don't want to waste
I have no idea, lol, I don't count them.Grats on the sales! How many are you down to?
