not much goin on this week.. finally gittin my progs reinstalled after i had to replace the graphics card.. i found the receipt on the old one.. i bought it in nov 04, so i guess i got good use out of it.. laffin.. bought a one-year warranty on this new one, so maybe it will last 2 yrs.. grin
One of my hens died yesterday, she’d been real sick for several days, and finally just gave up. Buried her in one of my flower beds, will find something nice to plant over her. Had been giving all the girls regular meds to keep them free of bugs, but she apparently caught something else or a snake bit her.. hard to say. She had some bites on her chest, but hard to tell if they were ants or something else.
Gonna buy another incubator soon, had two of them in storage and the asses sold my stuff without notice to me, so lost em both. Paid about 200 for them plus the auto-egg turner i had for one of them. sigh, can’t afford to replace them both, will just git a small 3–egg incubator and see how it goes. In the meantime, will try and set up a styrofoam cooler as an incubator, i got instructions from online, a bit complicated but will just use a lightbulb instead of all the fancy stuff it calls for. With any luck , in 28 days i’ll have some baby chicks!
And how has your week been?
