Wow! Who are we going to have to champion the Black Penadesenca breed?
But, happy travels ! I hope you get to go see lots of places and have many great adventures !
I went out to reset the clocks on the automatic chicken doors because we had lost power for a couple of minutes a week or so ago. While I was in the smaller coop, I noticed a bunch of mud on the floor in the covered part of the coop. When I looked up I saw 2 big holes in the corrugated panels...
I got my onion sets in the ground a couple of days ago. I have a lot of carrots in the in ground garden from a carrot that I let go to seed. I pulled a couple a few days ago to see if they were ready yet, but they are not. The rabbits enjoyed what I pulled up. I currently have walking onions...
I made wild Violet jelly yesterday! Waiting for the redbud trees to bloom so I can make some redbud jelly too. Have stated half heartedly looking for morels but haven't seen any yet. However, a friend that lives about 30 to 45 minutes away found a small one a couple of days ago. In my raised...
Now we have Covid. 🤣 I’m pretty sure the 5 month old brought it home from daycare 😞. I tried to convince my daughter not to send him until he is over a year old. But she and her husband get to make the decisions. He only goes 2 days a week.
He tested positive a week ago today. My daughter...
This is what my chicken yards look like after the water pipe repair. The water company told me how I could check my daily usage. On the day the pipe broke I “used” over 21,000 gallons of water. Compared to 200 to 300 gallons on an average day. No wonder my yard is a mud pit. Plus we have a lot...
We have our water pipe replaced !! So glad to have flushing toilets and running water !!
My chicken yard is a mud pit now.
@WthrLady I believe that they are required to bury the pipes 10’ deep but I was told that a lot of plumbers go deeper than that. Often 12ft deep
If the egg isn’t disgustingly dirty and if I know they’ve just cracked and frozen the 1 time, then I’ll use them. Otherwise I’d rather not take the risk.
I found a hidden nest of 31 eggs. 30 of which are frozen and cracked. I fed those vack yo the chickens.
Don’t they realize I’ve had to BUY eggs this winter!!

A plumber came by late this afternoon. $2,200 to just repair part of the line or $5,000 to replace the entire line all the way down to the meter ( over 300 ft through the woods).
I’m going with replacing the entire thing because I don’t want to have to do this again in a few months/years. He...
Ugggh! When you have to call the plumber back because he didn’t call back ( in the time frame he said he would ) and then he wants to know when do you want to get this fixed?? We are a family of 7 living with no water!!!! Including 3 boys ages 6, 9 & 12. We want it fixed right away!! 😳
On...
Nothing in the garden way too cold for that. Last night we had a water pipe break in our yard. Had to call the water department around 12:30am to come shut the water off. That is all ice on the ground from the water break. 😞 I’m not even sure how it got over there. The leak I saw was up by the...
