Okay, so i am some 20 or 30 or 40 pages behind as I have not been on in a long-long time.
So, today went to the Waterville (District Fair). Very nice little fair. Met up with the Poultry barn super - who is also the Okanogan County fair barn super - talked with her a bit. Alisha and I did some chicken looking and gandering...did some other barn looking and did some good food eatin'.
I will try and go back and scan pages to see if there is anything I have missed. if it is important = you may want to PM me. It has been hot for the past week or more. and it is staying hot at night.
Big momma racoon was killd in my parent's back yard (they are my neighbors). My dogs are locked up...my parents don't have dogs that run and they have little dogs in a fence yard. I know of no neighboring big dogs...so we have no idea how it died. DH says she probably weighed in at around 20 lbs or more. She either had kits or was getting ready to deliver.
Next bit of news: DH has given over more yard (back yard and lower where no one really uses) for me for my chickens. I need to determine how I am going to use it.....I could put in a whole bunch of individual pens...but the cost is a concern as is housing. It would be for smaller birds (bantams)....so I am going to go on BYC and look at coops that I might be able to build. Problem with the seramas...I have to make sure they are kept warm during winter. so I am not sure waht I want to do...doing lots of "thinking" on paper.
Well, until next time. I will try to read some back posts.
I'm so sorry.
