OK, think i'm all caugth up. Badseed, did you ever have a problem with those chicks eating eggs? The one someone thought was a RIR i thought wa a buckeye. But i have never had a RIR chick, so they could look alike till they are bigger...

I actually feed mine eggs. If they got too cold for us to eat, or i cull them from the incubator. Or from the store, or whatever. The cats come to get in on it too. And yet they have never eaten any in the henhouse that they lay. Even a couple that were laid with no shell. Once one was broken in the box, guess it got too crowded LOL

Poor Julie and the '666' bike!

A hoophouse was my original plan for a chicken tractor. Now hubby is leaning towards A-frames, to make them collapsable when not in use. [and when would i NOT be using them?]

Anyhow, good to catch up with you! You are still too funny, and too busy!

Quoting:I kind of have to chuckle about table scraps. You all do realize I have six kids???
