Havent been on much lately. I broke down and got a job, isnt that disgusting? And more disgusting yet, i'm a darn salesman, oh, the shame. I will not pollute this site with wheedlings for business, thats not what its for. That said, I am working for a Yamaha dealer, quads, sleds, generators, holiday trailers etc, new and used. Anyone wishes to axe questions and stuff, I might be convinced via PM's.
And lots of stuff being neglected around here. Chores in the dark morn and night. Garden not put to bed, and likely wont get done this fall.
First time since about April I havent had a hen setting. Last one hatched on wed. I had set one on about 8 eggs, got three Marans from someone local, and a couple of Rumpless Ameraucana (Jaye, spell check please) . About ten days into the set, she broke. I saw it in the morning doing chores. And there was my old Peachy in a nest box swearing at me, still in the dark. The eggs in the nest werent stone cold, but pretty cool, and I had to get to work. So I put Peachy on them and figured what will be will be, didnt really think any would make it. But Wed, there was peeping. One black chick, fairly small, guessing Marans, but time will tell. Hope its a pullet.
Anyway, got to do some yard cleanup, put away the lawn moaner for the year, play with dogs goats and chickens and horse a little, take my wife out for 25th aniversary supper, being joined by some friends, should be nice. Its wonderful, the 25 yrs, rough spots happen of course, but overall, I live with my best friend and its great. Who'da thunk 25 years ago that two from the recycle bin would make it this far.
