What did you do in the garden today?

[TropicalBabies]

No laughing from those in the SW, such as @igorsMistress, or HI @TropicalBabies and any others on here from really hot areas. It will be humid too. But after the extended wintery spring, I'm happy.

You deserve a good defrosting! Ice cream and salad weather... in that order.

Here is the one with mild splay legs and had moderately curled/not spread-out feet. If addressed early, can usually fix or improve that issue.

Sorry about the 1 but bravo on helping the 2 and sharing your solutions.

Happy aloha Friday gardeners,
Well, we got those trades that they said were coming and today Mother natures A/C is absolutely lovely!

The volunteer cherry tomatoes are loaded with fruit, obviously a child of the sweet 100.

I looked on line for S.S. 100 seeds and they want $20 just to ship .
The cherry tom's that i seeded are not as impressive but they are coming along good enough.

Egg plant is blooming, peppers blooming and fruiting, kale's are good cept the one everything is snacking on including chickens. All in all I am still happy with the way things are surviving for the most part.

Orange tree and Star fruit are all fruit and flowers and bee's a buzzin'.

My young roo is starting fill out along with stretching. I heard him clucking to the big girls this morning. Looking forward to him being the roo of the yard and not all skittish and beat by the big girls. I think he is pretty handsome boy.

The chicks are still adorable and all strong and healthy and I am super thrilled and grateful. I am also happy about mixing the breeds, got some real cuties.

Did I mention that I got my incubator on Tuesday night? It is pretty and in perfect shape, though I am not going to heat it up for another few weeks as I need to get ahead of egg stores for us. Almost had to buy some but girls are laying decent this week. The speckled wild hen has been laying in one of our main nest boxes. Too cute. I took the first one in to be incubated the other day. Bruce was mating her and it is worth a shot. We will eat the rest since I have been feeding her for years lol.

K. Have a fabulous day all!!! Stay safe and well and keep posting!

YAY! I'm collecting eggs for my next incubation. Mixed breeds are certainly interesting - never know what is going to show up!

Your new rooster is handsome!

They've been rolling and lolling in the cool high grass all day. Now it's a battle with the flies. I'm out of pinesol too. ARGH. That gets moved to the very top of the shopping list.

Yup. I get it by the gallon at the farm store. LOL.
