Wow, 50 pounds! That's huge! It gave me a chuckle to picture the turkeys staging a "sit in" and you having to step over them. We spared one of our cornish cross "meaties" be cause my hubby wants to see if she'll lay eggs. I often call her "cat" because she likes to get underfoot when I am outside, much like the cats do.Monday
Chicken eggs 0, The ladys are getting wiser at hiding their eggs and two of the ladys are sitting on a nest full of eggs or at least they sitting when I check on them .. I barrowed a neighbors 4 year old boy to collect a bag full of eggs from under one of the sheds before the heat gets to them ..
Turkey eggs I found a nest with 5 eggs and it was on the other side of the yard and I only found the nest because I was cleaning up some of the trash that came in with the high winds we have had lately ....
Temps mid 80's with soft winds and clear skys most of the day ..
Karenerwin, Diabetes is funny on how it makes a person feel and I was one of them people who had no idea about its affects on the body and I am finding out the hard way to do a lot of reading on the subject but the big thing is how exercise is good but not to over do it and that dehydration is not simply fixed with water but to also to cool the body off and that a headache is the bodies way of telling a person to take it easy as the next step is much worse like a few days in the hospital ... Ya not good ..
Karenerwin, the Turkeys I have two hens and I started with 4 toms and wound up with 3 hens and 1 Tom and we ate him for Thanksgiving and he was 50 pounds and one lady passed away when I put her out side I thank it broke her heart to be put out with the other birds . The hens are a pain as they will get right in my path and sit down and wont move so I have to steep over them ..
Yep, they call diabetes one of the :silent killers" for a good reason. We got the day off work today, Due to all of the flooding in our area we have become like an island! So many of the highways and roads are closed that the district decided to call off school. We wouldn't be able to get help if we had a fire or anything, plus they don't want staff to get flooded out away from their home. I thought I was going to get lots done today, but so far I've had a bad stomach all morning
14 eggs yesterday.
