Oh, I found someone to give me some eggs! The chicks would be mutts though. I wonder if they would be hard to sell (or give away).

I don't think it is your computer...I think BYC may be having problems.
Yeah, I was surprised to see that my reply had posted; it timed out and I couldn't get BYC to load.

i need ideas on how to heat my coops instead of using a million of the 250W light bulbs.
I was thinking of https://www.gqfmfg.com/store/comersus_viewItem.asp?idProduct=40#
if i could use it outside in the coop to try and keep it around 40* this winter???
and i am curious to the square feet it can heat.
the other items that work just like it cost over $600 this is my cheapest idea so far.
and i haven't even figured out how keep all the waterers from freezing other than just fill the waterers 3 times a day.
Ideas?

I too have learned over the years that I am a healthy person that just gets to live with the pain. I know that the pain is meaningless, and I am in no danger of any real health problems. I have found that a person can be in a lot of physical pain, and yet still manage to live their life. My biggest problem is knowing when something is really wrong. I tend to wait longer than I should sometimes. I have come to the point that pain is normal, it can really really suck at times, but it won't kill me. My big thing now is just being able to function some of the time. I have so much I want and need to do. I swear if I ever become pain free that nobody will be able to keep up with me. lol
Oh, this! I have dislocated my left shoulder multiple times, and worry about not being able to recognise the first warnings of a heart attack.

There's a bunch of stuff that can cause cold extremities or low cold tolerance- low blood glucose as well as poorly controlled diabetes, brown fat disorder, cardiovascular illness, or plain vanilla fatigue and sleep deprivation, BUT: it's one of those things you should mention to your doctor if it's a recurring problem, and one a good doctor takes seriously.
I can so relate to being cold most of the time. For me it's the worst when I am sitting at the computer. I have always been sensitive to cold, and it was much worse, for years after becoming very hypothermic on the last major hike our family under took. We had made it up to the Pacific Crest trail, when we got caught in the record rain storm for the month of August. We were not really prepared for that much rain overnight. By the time we hiked back to the trail head, there were several of us that had hypothermia. My brother and his friend hiked out faster than the rest of us, and they were able to flag down a logging truck. It's a good thing, because I don't know if we would have survive the night. The trail head was at least 20 miles from the nearest paved road. In the end a full mountain was called in for us. It was a good thing because my dad had fallen and messed up his knee. Another friend of ours hiked back up the trail to get my dad's backpack. It was a lot of fun when the local officers carried us kids into the only open business in Index that night. I was carried piggyback by the local cop into the bar. I was 15 when this all happened. I have never been overnight backing since. I have almost done it, but it just never worked out. Of course now there no way I could manage the back country.
I think for me the cold is part of the Fibromyalgia.
I really noticed the cold this year since I had LapBand surgery two months ago and lost 65lbs.Man oh man am I freezing.

My chickens all followed me out to the orchard this afternoon - they are becomming more skilled at balancing in our high winds. I was trying to shake some apples from the highest tree branches where the bears cold not reach them, when the apples fell, I was certain the chickens would all run over to eat them - nope.
They were far too interested in eating the elderberries and apple chunks out of the 2 week old bear poop

wow, 65 pounds in 2 months? Great Job! One of my neighbors had the surgery 3 years ago. She was often very ill the first year, but once she got past all that she lost about 200 pounds and looks fabulous! I need to do something, but anything that involves anesthesia scares the poop out of me.

I need a new avatar, but first I need some photo editing software. I got a new computer mostly because I needed a bigger screen so my eyes don't give me a headache.
Microsoft no longer makes photoediting software. I want Adobe photoshop, but I don't like the price.
