The Old Folks Home

My Mom and nephews evacuated to Shingletown today. My Sister is headed up there soon. My Sister said that half of her staff were evacuated last night.

My Brother has a Son working in Klamath Falls Oregon on a fire line. The fire almost went over him today!

Keeping you all in my prayers.

@ronott1 and @perchie.girl, you two definitely need to rethink this California thing and move somewhere where there is a lot of water around you....like an island. All kidding aside. You guys are to be commended for not bolting for the border after facing 1 wildfire. You must be made of some pretty tough stuff! Personally, I want nothing to do with fire other than the one that is in the fireplace keeping us warm in the winter.

Yeah, I tried a worming method I read about here on BYC where you smear the paste on bread, cut it in bite size pieces and then feed each bird a piece of bread. Oh yeah? Really? With Bantams? I was chasing down 7 week olds because the roosters were calling them and giving them their 'bites' and I didn't want to worm any birds under 3 months. Then they started to play keep away with it. I finally caught them before they could swallow too much and tossed them the untreated bread. While the hens were scrambling for it I was grabbing the roosters and forcing the glob into their mouths. I got the hens to eat the treated bread and the roosters force fed their dose. Think when I do the repeat, it's Ivermectin injectable in the water time.

To make matters worse somebody pooped on me from an overhead roost.:sick Little ingrates.

:lau I tried that once too!

The hens would not eat them!

I do not do that anymore. Also, stuff like that can work with a couple but not wit 30!

I am sorry but this is so funny... BTW you really cant over dose with Ivermectin.

Two more years and I might not be in California anymore!

But Idaho would not be any safer....It would be less expensive to live there though
I am dug in like a tick.... There are only two other places I would choose.... Nevada around Ely, And New Mexico around Roswell... Both high desert.

Both in burn paths... The topograpys are very similar to here.... both dry both hot in summer... Both have snow in winter... Just a little bit.
