Wisconsin "Cheeseheads"

[jvls1942]

today I have to move two goslings and the peachick out to one of the small brooder pens.. then set up a TV for the newly hatched keets..

I could also let the chicks in the big brooder loose inside the coop if it weren't for the fact that the POL pullets are using the coop.. this musical coop/brooder game is getting complicated.. I might just have to build a Dutch door on that coop so the big birds can fly in and out, and the little ones would stay in.. at least for a little while longer..

One of the POL is sleeping in the big coop.. I wish they all would.. the geese stay in there over night,, I think that is too intimidating for these young ladies..

I might be forced into repairing the hole in the lean to pen and letting the geese sleep in there..?
more work to do.. it never ends..

I have to contact a guy from Iowa who is interested in my large incubators.. then I have to contact a woman who needs a parrot sized cage for an African parrot.. I have a really nice and large cage, but it won't fit through a normal sized door.. this cage cost about $600.oo new. (we bought it used ). It fit through our French style patio doors..

all this talk about work is making me tired..

On another note, there's a link going around about my school. It's a little shocking, but true.

WOW!

and I thought the Parkview district was poor at dealing with administrator's shortcomings. The principal at Footville primary has more than a few.

Morning--I am shocked that they left that up actually! With the names right in print...isnt that considered slander? If those guys really are jerks they could sue the writers of those comments I think. Terrible that they are still working there! I guess we are luckier than we realize here cause our schools have great principals.
Tomorrow I am heading to Jims with 4 pullets in tow. Today I was nearly half way there because I had to get my son to Portage. Man, if you miss the exit to get to the Petro station on 94 and 39 you really cant get there! I think we drove over all of those ramps and ended up heading back East 10 miles until we could turn around and try again!
I think I just read about 70 posts...dont remember anything. I have to go out and find which pullets I am going to bring. Guess I better get to it!

PICKING ME OUT THE VERY BEST ONES, RIGHT????

Good morning everyone! Guess what? Dh wakes me up and tells me to come downstairs. I keep asking what's wrong, and he keeps looking thru the windows and the fog. Pretty soon I see one of our sex links with 6 tiny fluff balls following behind.

. I had no idea. I thought she had just gone missing. So....now what? She is in our lawn. I saw three of the other hens near her, but most troubling to me is our dog. Even though I love that she is out there with them in the grass I think I should move her to the brooder. What do you all think? And how do I move her?

Question . I didn't think that sex-links would go broody?????
