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.
