I'm waiting for all these city/suburban covid crazy people that bought all the chicks up get their lives back and return to normal then they will probably offer to pay ME to take all their POL birds

Good point.....

Maybe I will try.

How should I word the add?

Super old birds, looking a bit ratty, might lay on occasion, randy 1 year males also available.

20 bucks each, or free... whichever

Just don't complain to me after you get them... if you don't like them, eat them.

@Alaskan , no no.

Mature birds, finishing molt, will lay - mature, tasty roosters also available.

$20/ bird. $15/rooster with coq au vin recipe.

No buyers remorse due to need to preserve flock health.

Just got back from retrieving the Horse trailer from my friend. 95 degrees no AC Face masks on when in town... Needless to say I am not used to this any more.

Thank goodness the woman who parks up against my truck by inches wasn't here.. I took about two feet of her precious space. Pleanty of room for her to park... Neener neener.

Feeling good Legs are happy of all things. Still complaining but normal complants from inactivity. Charly horse keeps threatening in my left calf. My truck is a stick and the clutch is pretty stiff, set up for hauling heavy loads.

Guy called yesterday and we are getting close to ordering plywood, and lumber. Floor joists are rotted in some areas. They have to block in for the new floor as we.. Hes replacing all the insulation below the floor because its in nasty shreds.

I am SOO happy happyhappy happy... Ieven got color swatches yesterday..

I think deciding on color is going to be the most difficult after picking the flooring. Oh while I was at Lowes yesterday I bought a small hammer drill. To take out the salcito tile on the fireplace. Its porous and when it breaks the edges are like glass. Its on the floor too but I suspect when they take up the floor there the tile will go with. Been wanting a small hammer drill for a while now.

its all part of the floor rehab. once the new sub floor goes in I can do Cement board and redo the Stand for the pot belly. Or a new potbelly. I would love to have one that will take a full length of firewood. As it is I cant bank the fire for the night. Or I dont know how.

Very difficult to do with a tiny fire box.

But.. maybe since you have hard wood down there it us possible?

I would try with a few knots from some hard wood. Get them burning, then turn down vents so they barely smolder.
