This was the first time I DIDN'T fall for the April Fool's Day Stunt - I am so proud of myself. I usually fall for everything and make a total fool of myself. I remember falling apart over other stunts and telling my family - as IF they even cared.

Latestarter, pretty sure it's sap. The sap is still running here, so it all makes sense (kinda).

Help, HELP!!

Step away I say! Step AWAY!!!



Where is the duct tape! STOP the insanity!!!!









Too late....



No one stopped me......



I put more eggs in the incubator, I think 5 or 6 dozen... But I didn't count too closely...

And yes... All tractors are already full..... Hummmmmmmm

And yes, I still have chicks in the house......

And yes, chicks are hatching Monday and next week.



I guess if it gets too bad... I could always...uh.... Build another tractor! No way those count as coops!

Do you need a personalized long sleeve restraining device?

 

[drumstick diva]

sounds like Alaskan does, better get measurements

Alaskan has needed one of those for a long time.

BF is taking care of the "farm" while I'm away next week. He's got to take care of the birds (chickens, turkeys, ducks, guineas) and the goats. He's got seedlings I started inside the house that need TLC. I broke the news yesterday of the turkey requiring oral antibiotics twice a day and showed him how to do that.

This morning I broke the news that a shipment of eggs will be arriving while I'm out and they'll need to be unpacked and stuck under my dwarf broody.


I think that's all the surprises I have.

TWICE now, my DH has had to deal with chicks hatching while I was at the beach. This last time, 100% of the 48 eggs in the tray hatched! He only lost one to either trampling or suffocation. I'VE never had a 100% hatch rate..........sassinfrassinwrass......
