Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

Yes. None local at all. I hatched these but my incubator took a poo.. I think I'll try what I have and then if it comes down to it bargain with my husband lmao..


I think I'm going to research it a bit more to make sure I know what I'm doing.


Mine is strange. He does not over mate his hen. I've had the pair for awhile and he didnt seem that bad.he never bothers my chickens either. Just my goslings..


That's cool. I've never met anyone on these forums so close lol


I love igo. We thought about buying a house out there but it was just to far of a commute for my husband to get to work.

ya get it worked out!

I'm gonna finally give the cat the pain meds..... She's looking really rough and barely moving now.... Her hairs falling out...... But at twenty she really did live a full life and for an outdoor cat it's rare to die of old age......

So sorry Phil..
Shes had a good life with you no doubt

Just stopping in. Just so you knows I'm still breathing . Felling pretty old though . Went to the Nashville Zoo Monday with son and family . Had a good time except even though I rented a scooter I still got real tired . All the medicines were interacting with each other and leaving me in a sleepless state . Soooo I stopped taking them and called the doctor . I'm the high strung nervous type always have been. Type A they call me always on the move always doing something .Don't like and pretty much never took drugs the doctor didn't prescribe .All the worst side effects I had . The doctor and the pharmacist both said the drugs didn't have those side effects . Funny thing the drug company not only said they were possible ,but highlighted them on their website . Wednesday the doctor changed the blood pressure pill . But only after I had stopped all of them . Waited and then started on just the blood pressure pill . After just one pill , I was a nervous wreck. And after three days had almost uncontrollable panic attacks . He also increased the anxiety pill to double the dose . I've been taking herb sleeping pills and drinking herb tea just trying to maintain . And television and computers make it worse . Last night with the help of pills I slept some longer stretches . Maybe two and a half hours . And lately for me that's a long time . I haven't started the new blood pressure pills yet . I hope they don't affect me like the last one did . Told DW I wanted to feel normal for a couple of days just in case they go sideways on me . At least I'll remember how I'm supposed to feel .So ifin you've been wondering where I was and how I been doing . I been here and not doing near as good as I'd like to be . If the Doctor don't get the drugs straight I'm going to a holistic doctor. He helped us get Ben off all the drugs that the doctors had him taking . Falling asleep at the wheel . Oh and you can get some mighty fine duds at the good will. But if your my size your SOL

K.. so glad you stopped in. Im sorry the meds are giving you so much trouble. I hope they get it straightened out soon!

I sell eggs just so I can buy lattes there... I'm probably an addict... No, I'm definitely an addict. Maybe I need an intervention?

Do i need to round up the gals and head your way?

It's raining! It's raining!

@BYC910, Glad that you stopped by. Dealing with doctors/illness flat out sucks. Medicine is not an exact science. Went through it with my Mom - in and out of the hospital - misdiagnose after misdiagnose until she self diagnosed. Going through it now with grand daughter who has been moved from ICU to regular room back to ICU and now to biological isolation. for you and her both. Praying for a positive resolution.

Im sorry Sour... I hope they get her sorted!

Good morning Pond!

Good morning pond peeps. Its overcast and hubby is out there putting fence around the new garden. I was a bit worried about my strawberry plants. I think a deer has been sleeping behind the chicken coop where i planted grass seed. You can see big oblong areas where the grass is flattened. i mean , we have 13 acres and there are plenty of places to bed down. But no, it has to squash my tender new grass!

Why wake up & have to travel to get breakfast when all you have to do is stand up & it's right under your nose, or maybe a few steps away?

We got a glorious inch of rain last night. My farmer is in a much better mood this morning.

I’m sitting here in my grandma’s house watching her belongings go out the door. We’re having an estate sale/open house today. It makes me a little sad, but what else are we going to do with it? After she died, we found a note from Grandma that said, “Remember - when cleaning out my house, a big dumpster will be handy. I don’t need this stuff anymore!”

I wish i had been there when they cleaned out Grandmas house. At least i have her old copper double boiler pot with a hole in it to remember her by.

Dang brother. Thanks for checking in. Keep trying, you'll find the right combination of things to work. Love ya brother.

This weekend my babies hatch! It just never gets old.
On a technical note, I need a different turner. I pulled a few quitters yesterday and it was obvious the CAM development was stunted right at the level of the egg turner... I'm pretty sure it doesn't allow for enough ventilation.
So, I can either buy a new one, or somehow burn some holes in the plastic of the one I have. Part of me wants to burn holes in things. Part of me wants to peruse Amazon and have a package on the porch. Decisions, decisions...

Maybe just drill some small holes?
Seen alot of under developed CAMs this season, all over BYC and it happened to me too. Not sure what's up with that.

Dang Sour, so sorry man. Praying they figure things out, and pronto!

Every time I come to the house I find a little thing to take home. I figure DH won’t notice it as much that way...

Yeah, we keep kindling wood in it. Dad used to bring it with us on scuba trips to boil lobsters in before it got a hole in it.
