Great idea : 'Pond School' with Chris, Chaos and ME as teachers. :celebrate Rav could be the principal. We could change the world one person at a time.

Good morning, Pond Life. 13" female class today - nothing to run, but I have to help 'beat brush'. It's raining like a motha, and I am hoping for a small class. :oops: I'll check in later.

As usual - an excellent idea, Sour. I kinda like the idea of Rav in a two-piece suit with a leather whip in-hand :D

Enjoy beating yer brush

Sweet! How're they looking?

I just hatched a few, more in the bator... these look better than the last ones by a long shot... I think the cull cockerels stuff was still there last time... :/

Since my awesome all black Tim Nagle cockerel was a dud this spring, Soup is in with the all black girl (Tim Nagle line). The babies look very good, and I am growing them all out. I do see different influences on them. I have a few that I would call more gray than black at hatch, it's a very deep gray but not the powdered charcoal color that I am looking for. However, those have the best tongues at hatch and don't have any clear nails. So I'm not sure how those differ in genotype from those that have blacker skin but an occasional clear nail with black quick. Both types are hatching with black back stubble rather than down. I've only had one hatch with white/pink toes, I've toe punched it as a cull but am growing it out to see how it changes over time. I think I am going to let Soup back out in the flock and put the black boy in, and hope she starts laying again.
 
So hubby came across a host of earthworms in a spot where he's been working outside. He took the grands out this morning to gather em for the raised garden beds that haven't been planted this year. It's gonna be a crazy day today.lol

howdy peeps..... stopping in too say hello.... it's freaking raining again... was going to swap carbs in the firebird today but since i don't have a garage going into the basement to put in that last pillar. After I do some baking. It's only 54 degrees good day to bake.
If it's not raining in the morning I'm going fishing. Took the boat out last night on little lake ran great..... trolled for an hour with no luck fighting high wind though I did get a couple hard strikes.... can't figure pout how a fish can hit a lure with treble hooks on that hard and still miss them..... well it is called fishing not catching....
