Afternoon all!
hope at least some of you are getting rain.
I have a question~ I really love the Fleet Farm in Antigo but I also go to Rhinelander a lot. Anyone know of a place there that sells poultry stuff?

hi folks,

got some more of the garden planted waiting on rain now,,,,,,,might set up some irrigation tonight or tomorrow that usually brings in some downpours

hi to the newbie from farther north than me !

Vicki you can find some "stuff" at Farmers Feed in Rhinelander, over near Trigs mall,,,,on a wierd slanted street/corner,,,,new owners this year the gal seems helpful or crabby I have caught both sides of her,,,never priced my feed there but will at some point, not sure if the still grind there or get it hauled in. I know they have a grower mix that is high protein one of my friends uses for turkeys, worth a stop or a call

need to find the time to get the grow out cage/pen lower level finished and get the fools day hatch outta the brooder shack,,,,always get backed up on projects this time of year

seen the arm specialist today and I have tendonitis! I don't need surgery to take the plates out of my arm YAY! I have a brace to wear and take ibuprofin and therapy on it! thankfully no surgery! the tendonitis is in the area that one used for texting lol guess I text to much.... Naaaaaa it has to do with the original surgery but removing the plates won't help. I also have some numbness in my pinky? anywho
later all DD is STARVING! we all will be soon in DH doesn't get called back to work SOON! lol

BL4, that actually seems like a possibility, considering that in the 10 days he was on prednisone, he had a complete turn around. The only symptom that he has that isn't indicated is he has tremors. I just don't understand what it could be that the vets didn't see in all the tests they did on him. He had X-rays, the lymes bloodwork that tested for 4 things I thing(Forgot what else it tested for), he got his liver and kidneys tested, he was tested for glaucoma because when he first got sick it seemed like his eye was bugging out, and you would think that the anti inflammitories would make it better if he did have that arthritis. I hope to god that it isn't a brain tumor, cuz I love him to death, and I don't have the $4,000 to treat his cancer. We've already spent $600 on his vet bills that we honestly don't have. And please don't say I'm a bad pet owner, because I'm trying to do everything I can.

BTW~ I just watered, by the bucket, all of my herbs, toms, etc. so I am positive it will rain!

Good day working on my grape vines and recovering them from the weeds. 2 more to go! Also got 3 huge buckets full or raspberry plants off craigslist for free. Now have to till up a space and plant them. They had a nice trellis system set up for them that I have never seen for berries before. Might have to look into that.It looked nice. And helpful for fabric and weeding under them.
Hoping for good news from carol later this week that my first silkie from my little brood of them has hatched. The first group of 4 only 1 was fertile. Took her another group of 4 last week so we will see if those were fertile as well. Here is to hoping!
