It looks like it! I have seen people feed wild animals before, and I have bottle fed baby deer but I would love to hand feed an elephant! WOW!
Love the pictures. Keep sharing.
We're still getting some sleet/snow but it's hopefully over, soon. Got probably 14 inches but then it rained for a few hours on it last night and compacted the heck out of it before turning back over to sleet and snow a few hours ago. It's still pretty thick in some areas (over my boots), though. Going out now to attempt to snowblow what I can before I have to head to work at 2pm. Oh and in good news, right now we are "in the crosshairs" for the storm coming up the coast tomorrow evening.
I am done! DONE!
It is no longer pretty. It is no longer magical. MAKE IT STOP!

Ugh, I do not envy you. At a certain point the adventure becomes somehow less so, huh?
Oh well, just think of how fortunate you will feel in May and June when anything you plant will grow while I struggle to keep the dust at bay in the spring winds with no precip whatsoever.
I am so glad to be a Texan today!!!! 70's for several days. 50's at night. Just remember while I'm gloating that we have to survive our August weather when it often tops 100. Ugh. We have actually had colder than usual weather this winter. Hopefully knock down the bug population. Hasn't been friendly for utility bills.
It is nice here too, sadly we need rain.
The heat of summer will be here soon and the is the time I have to worry about chickens here.
Enjoy the nice weather!
For the antique cabinet incubator, this is the kit I was posting about yesterday:

That's not necessarily true. It's really cold here until June/July and our growing season is about 90 days. I was having fires in the wood stove in July. We generally have to plant short season crops and/or hybrids that are more vigorous although every year I do attempt something stupid like watermelons.
Just finished two hours of snowblowing and shoveling while BF plowed the driveway. It's not pretty, but it's done and the birds and goats are now able to leave their prison walls. And... it's snowing again. It was supposed to taper off and stop by 11 but it doesn't appear to be doing that right now.
Our 10 day forecast has 5 days of snow.
