Sorry to hear about your hen. I really don't have much knowledge so can't offer much. BUT from what I know a lower protien diet is supposed to cut back on egg laying also I would say give her "short" days Less light will slow egg laying.
Good luck

thanks CR

My mama made sure I never call someone before 10am or after 9pm unless I KNOW they will be awake.... so I sent a simple little text and its all squared away

Yup I understand I figure tween 8:00 am and 9:00pm I also some people (like me) leave thier phone on all the time and some people (unlike me) get woke and unhappy by a text beep. I figure if ya don't want it to wake ya up test that off button.

well the one thing about txt is that its 1 beep/buzz.... you can roll over and ignore it.... a call is repeated beeps/buzzes so harder to ignore.... figured text was better option

True UNLESS they have a phone like mine that when there isa text it beeps every couple minutes until you read it. Sometymzmine beepsall nyght with out me knowing. See Some people work really late and just keep sending text after most have gone to bed.

Again THE OFF BUTTON ! ! ! !

Nice page Rainwolf! Your garden was very lush - I'm so envious of people who can grow... One of these days I'll have to get a BYC page up. Good job.

Thanks! this year I hope to get aquaponics system running and a pop bottle greenhouse going... then I might have greens for a lot longer AND fish & crawdads to eat as well!

Yum, crawdads...

That's what rain hats are for.

I do not want to wear hats in tropical climates when I visit... but have to now due to ears... the new ears mean I won't have to worry so much

With your fair skin you should be wearing hats in the tropics, too.

The elderly couple I sat next to asked me how old I am... When I told them, they said, "Is that all?!

" I was then given the customary "I-wish-you-could-meet-my-grandson-he's-just-your-age" speech.

If by 'manage' you mean I have more attitide than brains and I'll chew out anybody, yep.

I was thinking brains, but then I haven't seen you yet in a full snit.

Hey, I'm coming to see YOU. If I cared about the house I'd just make a formal appointment.

It is good to know. I didn't get much cleaned, but the babies are safe from the nasty little dogs. The new kids are small enough to wander right out of the dog cage that I have them in. I spent the evening covering the bottom sides with screen material. Now I think that they are safer.

My stupid phone does an obnoxious 'riiiinggg'-like chime every 3 minutes, IF it gets a text or voice message.
If it is a missed call with no message, it does nothing.

So, how can we have lows like 30-34 and 40-60% precip, but it isn't supposed to snow ?
Think we'd have freezing rain (my personal favorite weather condition

) if not snow.

Something else to study today & occupy my mind.
That,
and I have decided to break down & look for a car....DH has left the pink slip for my pick up truck with a friend down there (NorCal) to sell.
So.....I am gonna surf for a nice used wagon-hatch back type, like a Subaru maybe???

Where is everybody?
I better get my rear in gear & get some PT & exercises done before opening coops......well, see ya all later.
