No we were at my grandparents in Yakima. You do know that Yard Birds has closed down right.

Yes it was fun while it lasted. I got my first dog from the pet shop there as a little boy in the 1960s. The fishing and hundting dept was first class they had every thing you needed. bob

You sure they're moths? I also have insects that lay a lot of eggs on my bird netting, but often the eggs are from various types of diurnal flying insects and sawflies. Often moths will prefer laying their eggs under tree bark, on a broad surface, or in hidden crevices.

No, we were going to Olympia (or, near there) to pick up a puppy. (changed their mind about that) Family shopping day, LOL, that's never going to happen. . .

CR - Thanks for the tip - the Tippman came with a cannister but I would not have thought to fill it.

The road trip down to where you're at is no problem. I usually drive to CA a few times per year.

DH's tanks are steel .... too heavy for me to use. Mine's aluminum....

.... Just got a call from the auto repair shop ... we need to get the VW towed to the dealer 18 miles away as he cannot fix it. He also told us to call the insurance as the bill for the repair will be big, he said he expects it to be in the thousands!. Grrrrr. Bugs can't swim!

The good news is my hens have not killed each other.... The RIR has agreed not to challenge Chirp as queen of the flock.

I see Green Fire Farm added Silver,Buff Laced and Gold Laced Brahmas.... Mine are getting so big now. I cant wait till I get eggs. I have the Buff Laced and Gold Laced from Dan Powell. I fought like heck and stonehenged won the bid war with me but Dan was nice enough to send me a ton of eggs. Here are a few recent pics.

If you are interested I have a good mechanic in Monroe at $40.00 an hour which is more then half from regular shop rate in these parts.
He doesn't have employees nor huge overhead working out of his garage.

Taking a vehicle to a dealer you might as well stop off at the bank for a loan on the way there.

Dealers don't make money selling cars.
The $$$$ for them is when people bring their cars back to them.​

Nice gold lacing on the top, buff lacing on the right middle, nice body on the bottom.

Both Gold Laced and Buff Laced are very pretty, but they seem to still need work, both color and body.

Again a good congrats for winning those eggs and having some birds come out though!

I agree but I am having a blast with them. Never had Brahmas before and I had no idea how cool they are. They are a kick to see run. I look forward to working with them.
