Wisconsin "Cheeseheads"

Been down for the count since Tuesday with the flu...... not good timing! I have a race on Saturday that I need to be 100% for. :( I hate being stuck on the couch, it drives me nuts to not do anything....... been pushing fluids and soups and resting a lot, still feel like I was hit by a truck.

Hoping for a miraculous recovery by tomorrow.......
 
Hoping you are feeling soon bl4...my mom is in the hospital at NL with the flu and sick as heck too. Getting the flu scares me to death...I hate taking any meds at all.

Hi all! Hope all are doing well.

Ladies were enjoying free ranging with snow mostly gone. Not happy today with snow on the ground again.
Good production for winter time...I don't do extended light. My 2 meat gals I kept are my most consistent layers.

About time for my Brahma to decide its time to go broody again.
 
Man BigZ I hope she recovers quickly! This was a mild bout but still inconvenient. I am feeling better tonight, but the cough just started so I will be ripping my throat apart tomorrow. At least all my cats kept me company on the couch today, all of them took shifts. :)
 
First egg in weeks yesterday so I guess the mealworms are working. Hope you all are getting better, flu hit me about 3 weeks ago and I would say finally starting to get my stride and breath back. Thank you for all the chick advice, may stop into Marathon T&C today when I drive into town. Headed to LaCrosse for basketball tomorrow with one of the littles and really hoping that I have a plant stand in my living room when I get back.

good morning,
looks like byc finally is going to let me post. I tried yesterday and got sent flying through all kinds of hoops with no good results.
I have no idea why I am allowed to post today.


My old computer pooped out . a mouse (real one) got into the tower and built a nest complete with cockatiel feed. It burned out the mother board.

took it to the fixit shop. they could have fixed it for a small fortune..

GS Kalib had his old one here so he bought a new hard drive and some other parts and put it into working condition. all in all it cost $34.oo..
It is waaaay faster than my old contraption..


the puppies are 6 weeks old. I moved them out to the guinea pen yesterday. I spread a whole bale of straw onto the floor for a bed area. they preferred to huddle next to the screen door when I checked on them at 9 PM.
today I chipped the ice away from the solid door so I can close it at night.
they are very lively and playful, so I don't think the cold bothers them.
after a few days I will let them out to have their first encounter with snow.


I built a chicken feeder from a 5 gallon bucket. It is working great. All I had to buy was a $3.oo round shallow pan .

I go through about 5 gallons of feed each day.
