Wisconsin "Cheeseheads"

Now that's what I call a Poultry Paradise! MTF. Perhaps The Speckled Egg SPA! If you install a Jukebox you could call it Silkies Place. I think maybe the parrots are playing with Terri. Look we made her talk! Har Har Har! Silly humans. Congrats on the duckie fm! And good luck with the rest. You too BL4! BBCB sounds like both you and MTF have good neighbors. Too bad about the roo's but it's a common thing. I can't imagine having a better one. Today Brownie jumped up on top of the pine shavings bag and dug it out and laid her egg in it. He stayed right by her side the whole time. Think he's trying to woo her away from me. I was in and out of the coop quite a bit this morning. For the last 2 days I noticed Lefty just standing around in the yard lethargic by herself and looked bloated. Tried to catch her to no avail. She finally went in a nest and was there for a long time. She finally came out and there were 2 eggs in the nest. Not positive both were hers but suspect so. She's out and about now. Watched her eat and drink think she's fine. The weather seems to have affected the egg laying down to 7-8 the last couple of days. Some of the girls followed me into the garage this morning and heard the chicks for the first time, 5 of them walked around the brooder doing the Brr Brr Brr. The chicks quieted right down, it was fun to watch. Now they come in with me all the time. Haven't brought one out yet for a face to face. They did hear me calling them Babies and were just outside the overhead door talking back to me thinking my affections were for them.

I got 2 duckies now and one working on coming out. And a bunch of pips.

I've been painting my kitchen and dinning room yesterday and today and probably tomorrow too. It's so BEAUTIFUL!!!! I don't know why I waited 3 years to do it. And when that's painted, I'll be painting my downstairs bathroom. Work, work, work.

THANKS A LOT! fm I could have been spackling and sanding for a 3 room paint job for the last week. Geez if I had only thought of it.
 
Early Friday Evening to All..... Nice digs MTF...the flock will be quite happy in their new home I'm thinkin.

Doc are the days blending together for you nicely now. Keeping track of the day of the week can be a challenge at times for me some days. If it wasent for certain events around me, I'd have no clue.

Terri O my building is coming from North Star. It's at abuilding4you.com. I'll post pics of it as well as pics of the buckeyes as soon as possible. I have some of the peeps but I need to have jennie show me how one more time.

fm, nice to hear the hatching is still going on for you. Won't be long you'll need a pond and a barn!
I stayed away from a bator...they can be double trouble....Dave said, it bothers him to have any empty trays in the sportsman.... Jim is trying to figure how he can double stack his trays.....yikes!

Have Fun....Stay Safe... ~ bigzio
 
Bigz you know of which you speak. Friday is garbage day. Had to think about it then push the magic day/time/date button to make me feel like I cared. It might lead to how did I figure that out before? Oh well time to gather eggs. Looking forward to it!
 
Well, I guess no news is good news right?...... I hope by Monday there is a decision made but it sucks I have to wait all weekend wondering what they decided......

Nothing else to report here. Might try to get the garden in before I run to work.
 
BL4 and BBCB....still for you both to get the jobs you want.

I got 5 baby ducklings! The other 3 eggs were late quiters.

But now I got a question for BCC. Do you have Pekins? I don't remember you having any. But the one baby is completely yellow.
cool.png
Or maybe are they sexlinked? But I didn't think this breed was? Hmmmm. Any ideas?

Count me in on the prayers! And fully agree CP GREAT MORNING! Congrats fm! Thinking there might be a kiddie pool added to the yard very soon. Have 5 hours in on the day the bread is almost ready for the oven and I'm set up for detailing vehicles. And all the chickens are taken care of. Opened the garage for the first time since the lil ones arrived, warmer outside than in. Will place the brooder in the sun to give their tans some depth. Need to close off the pine chip bag 3 eggs in there today. Last time I walked in there Goldie was on top of it and she stood up and out plopped a wet egg. Pulled another tick last night only trips to the end of the driveway, coop, and garage. Thick with ticks. The 5 Flycatcher eggs hatched yesterday. Brownie did something yesterday that I haven't seen before. She was in the yard and was picking up feathers and pieces of straw and putting them on her back. Maybe camo from Peaches. Nesting instinct I think. BCC hope things went well for your mom! Back to what I used to consider work. Now it's a past time. Enjoy!
 
Having a rest from pulling stinging nettle...my hands are burning! I am watching the parrots--they are very quiet for amazons. DH just walked in from tilling out neighbor's garden and they made a little noise. I think they like him--good thing...
Well--I gotta get back outside--more weeding to be done. Anyone want to come over and help me get this place ready for a graduation party on Memorial Day? I will invite you to the party! TErri O
