No little fawn in sight this morning. I'm assuming she was united with her mom. Everyone around here who watches the deer regularly says this is normal. I haven't seen it before, but I don't watch them like they do. We have some people with cameras up just to watch the wildlife.
We have a young week old fawn wandering around without mama doe this evening. Hope they find each other. Neighbors think they will. They have seen this happen before with other fawns. Better to leave them alone they say. The fawn is soooo tiny.
Same here. We had a warm week, but that quickly resolved itself into the typical Washington clouds and rain.
That's definitely a "crazy cochin" in your avatar! :lol: What is that beauty's name?
I think the Eastern side of the state is warmer. I'm in the Southwest, and it has been mostly cool. Last year I did have a volunteer cherry tomato come up from the year before. It came up a little later, but supplied me with more tomatoes than we could eat. So, I haven't given up. These...
What a battle you have waged! I hope it's over now!
I decided to plant my garden from seed this year, direct sowing in the soil. Probably not a good idea in Washington. Looks like the beans, lettuce and cabbage are coming up, but I'm not seeing any signs of tomatoes or herbs. It's an...
It was good. I got the tostado. First meal of the day. Sticking with my diet and still enjoying a good restaurant. I call that success! Mike got a chorizo burrito plate and loved it, so it was a win.
I don't like that debate much.
I have a small greenhouse for my deck plants to get through the winter. DH will put up another small one for my garden starters next year.
BTW, we are headed out your direction tomorrow. Going to a particular garage sale we contributed to, as a donation...
Yeah, not sure I'd be truly free ranging chickens right now. Our fenced area has a hot wire, so those woodland critters won't get in. Then fence is 6 foot tall too. I only have to worry about the aerial predators, but haven't had problems with those in several years.
Maybe some day you'll have time to fence in a free range area for them. Everything costs money, of course, but so worth it to us.
You will love having an irrigation system for the garden! We have sprinklers set up to water low at the base of plants and it is so convenient.
They have been integrated for a couple weeks. Young cockerels are not a threat to a rooster, so no drama yet. I just can't believe I never noticed this until now!!!
It would definitely be nice if I could keep two roosters. One is not enough for 14 hens really. My poor broodies keep sitting...
Rose, Blanche and Dorothy at 4 weeks.Rose, Blanche and Dorothy at 12 weeks. :duc Uh, Rose, BLAINE, and Dorothy?
I wonder if he'll get along with Cooper.
Who? Me?
