Good morning, can see someone will be pacing today

Nope, just a lot of trips to the bathroom where the incubator is.. Do I have to pee again?

Tiny is being Tiny again.. First he checked out his treat bowl, then watched Gator eat breakfast. I gave him two nuggets in his treat bowl. But when Gator finished breakfast he was right down there in Gator's bowl getting more. I see he likes the little yellow bows the best. Next he's gonna start barking.

The truck driver called. She's trying to get my speakers here today, but it looks doubtful, however, she guaranteed they'd be her tomorrow. Either way, the little trailer is hooked to the tractor, so we can meet her at the end of the drive when she gets here. (The big trucks are not permitted to drive down unpaved driveways, and/or into unpaved yards.)

Oh, thinking of my fairy farter hen, (I had the egg for breakfast and indeed it had a yolk) I found 5 eggs in that coop yesterday. That makes 5 hens laying out of 5. One dark brown egg with speckles must be from the hen that farted.

hoooooo, glad it started to sprinkle outside. I was getting wo' out! Got two wheelbarrow loads of ash moved from the burn pile into an active burrow (I'm thinking fox).. Cleaned the back pen this morning, then moved a shelving unit, boards and cinder blocks to the new barracks. And finished the hot wire job on the new parade grounds. And it's just barely noon!

One half of the new barracks (I've got the materials laying there for a second pen)

and parade grounds in the back yard. Just think of how much I won't have to mow every 4-5 days!

Morning all. Snowing here. Last month snow was exciting. This month it's a bummer.

My new layers will do size variations on their eggs. The bantams will lay Fairy Fart eggs that are about the size of a Robin's egg before their reproductive systems figure out what it's doing and gets down to business.

That's wild about delivery trucks. Here they come up the drive and back up to the shop door for us and unload directly into the shop. A few will deliver to driveway which is funny since the road is gravel and so is the driveway. Then DH just takes the tractor down and has them unload into the bucket. The last thing we ordered that did it that was was our vinyl plank flooring.

Not being able to drive on gravel roads wouldn't work here in MO. All the side roads are gravel. County and state roads are paved but not the 'residential' rural roads.
