Cl: Since you are going to be in trouble because your eggs keep sneaking into the bator....Do you want to sell any eggs? I am not wanting fancy show eggs...just eggs that could grown into good layers. I think I could sell some generic chickens that are good layers. DD and I are trying to "finance" our chicken project/addiction, some.
That little roo is crowing his head off - he's happy, he finally got a little action and he has to tell everyone about it. He sure isn't very loud. I close the door and can barely hear him even though he is only 20 feet away!

I was thinking about hot wings at the pot luck.
A pot luck???
Count me in!!
I'll bring a slab of thai marinated BBQ salmon.
Been meaning to try that ress - yippee for the longest time.
Count me out for the chicken lesson though.
Got to keep the salmon IN the tummy.
OHHHH Salmon!!! I love salmon, I was just kidding about the fried chicken, I usually bake or grill mine! Chicken wings work!! I'll have to break out the greens so we can have an awesome salad to go with it! Ok, I marked my calender for the first week of june for the freezer camp so, I'm ready when you are, I will have meaties old enough to go so It will be a productive fun weekend! I will bring my chicken plucker so we have a couple to get the job done quicker! I will be getting that this week! And my Muscovy's too! Good bye mosquitoes and flies and other sorts of nasty bugs, the bugsbegone troop is on it's way!!

yea for the little guy!!!!
Well I wonder if Chickielady got the eggs I sent to her?
I overnighted them, they were suppose to be there at 4:00 this morning.
I packed them real good too, or so I hope!
Can't wait to find out the details.
She got
2 JPG Japenesse greens
1 MM Mutant Melinistic
1 R Reeves
3 JRN Jumbo Ringnecks
Atleast I think that's what I sent?

I got some remesh from Home depot (4X7') in the cement department. Bend it into a tent shape and drape plastic drop cloth on top. 9' X 12'. $10 for the whole set up. Toss out the plastic when I'm done, and use the thin floating row cover in the summer.
No bugs & the lettuce loves it.
I haev chards, lettuces and kales inside.
This year I'm building 8' X 3' vegetable boxes that are 2.5 feet tall so I don't have to bend as far down. Old bones creek when I bend.
Building it out of Cedar.
I think I'll build 4 of those and 4 of the 4'x4' ones for corn & tomatoes & zukes.
I plan to cover them all. Protection from deers, bunnies & bugs.
While I'm at it, I'll make a 4 X 4 X 3 koi pool. For poopy fish water to water my plants...3' will keep the ducks out of the yummy koi.
Heck, they can't even climb over the lip of the 4" tub to get in for a swim. Needed a ramp.
Tehy can't fly & can't jump. They just walk.
Spoiled brats.
Your raised beds make me envious. I would love to have raised beds, but I am not sure I will get them this year. I am hoping that my FiL will come and use his rototiller in the back yard, but I don't think it will happen. I could just use the old half rotten deck boards. The boards would make me beds that would be 20' long, by however wide that I want them. I have more than enough top soil to fill them with. We have been trying to raise the level over the back yard so that the high tide thing doesn't happen. There are places in the yard that need at least 4 to 6 inches of fill. I have a feeling that I won't have the project done before the potluck. I will also need to figure out a way to fence to garden beds, so that the dogs don't play in them.
I will have to go look at the remesh. I need to go to Home Depot anyway.
It should be next to the rebars.
