Our three inch rain did a number on the pens I had not yet finished....so today's job is to get out there and get them finished. It is really humid right now, so Im in for a break to rehydrate and then hit it again.
Then I need to finish canning the rest of the beets.
Our chickens are intelligent birds!!! I was watching One Eyed Jack, the Black Birchen Wyandotte who lost an eye fighting another young rooster. When he eats from the big feeder, he has learned to bring his good eye along the side and let the rim of the feeder hold his long wattles out of the way so he doesn't peck them when he eats. He does it every time he goes for food. He even does it when he is getting scratch with the other birds.
Kyzmette, how is your little hen doing? And did the violets,Monarda (bee balm), Perennial Ageratum come up? If not, I have plenty of plants and seed.
