I guess I am headed into the nasty day to obtain the required milk, bread and eggs for the impending snowstorm...Of course, if the power goes out, said food will spoil...always wondered why people buy the perishables! I am a transplanted Yankee, but its been 20+ years and I learned to drive here, I hate the snow and ice when its on the road.

Stay warm and dry everyone.

Tick there is talk of a get together in March at WCA.

Well if Coop is ok with it and I can have someone deal with the animals, I could possible make it. Still too far in the future for me to plan, but I will make a note on my calender. Things change around here so fast...

Any time you've got live animals, you must be able to change even the best laid plans at the drop of a hat!

ain't that the truth. I have almost stop planning anything over a week and even then, some plans fail due to my animals... Good thing the missus and I are use to going places alone when one has to stay home. Normally me, but that is ok, she needs the break more than me... She still works while I am retired but seem to work more now than ever. laughs...

How old are the pullets? I have no coop and havent moved yet, BUT will be ready for some pullets (8+ weeks old) in probably 8 weeks or so.

They are a few days old right now.

They are a few days old right now.

I am going to have to sweet talk my husband to build me a brooder box. I got two older girls that are 10 weeks old (barred rocks). They are so sweet. I want some more. But all this cold weather they would a box. Hopefully in the next few weeks he will build me one
