Your doing great! If dual purpose type, you might need to wait maybe a month longer. They build carcass structure before adding a good weight -- unlike the Cornish X sold that you must butcher or they just die! Take one off the roost one night and feel it for body flesh before you set up for...

So how's the gardening going? Did you process those birds yet?

More light showers here today. VA has been in drought for a few months, so this several days of rain bands has been great. None of the huge downpours, just needed soak in moisture.

A lovely grilled cheese -- gouda, wheat French bread & butter.

We've had light rains over past 4-5 days. Almost 2". It's supposed to drop another 1/2" today. Maybe it will 🤞😁 cooler weather has helped it not just evaporate! All good.

Cool, overcast, off & on sprinkles...good inside day to cook.

Maybe buy veggies & keep in pots for a couple of weeks -- before plants are all gone. 🤷 After our welcome rain, still in cool, dreary, wet mode. That fine! Still some off & on drizzles. It's adding up, staying in the ground -- we were getting desperate for rain!! Seems this front stays thru...

Wonderful smell of fresh brewed, plus a full cup! Ended up staying home Wed and got more things crossed off list. Mostly inside as it was 93 outside. Hung some laundry & it was dry in an hr! Worked yesterday, same type temps. Then, about 6 PM a front rolled in with much needed rain! Had to...

We finally got rain & a cool down! I'm loving both. 😁

@murphysranch I'm hoping your mom improves and you get to see her again. It's a hard road when we & family are far apart. :hugs Back to work for me today. Can't say that I want to do it -- in fact, real tempting to reschedule the jobs. There's a couple things I'd really like to have done...

We need rain. Chances improve thur- sun..🙏 won't be a lot but still helpful. Mowed the last area of backyard between house & new hot wire fence. Moved some goats to different pastures. Scrubbed out & refilled water troughs. About 400 gal of cool water, about 4 days worth. Got my AC unit in...

Chili. Made a small pan of. Couple pints to freeze, not enough to can. That's ok, prepped meals to thaw!

Late yesterday I mowed the yard. Light, straggly stuff....no rain, not much growth. But I'm now a decent neighbor again 😉 Home day for me. Couple projects I'm hoping to get done. Nothing big!

Too hot to cook. Tomato sandwich was great! Need to get AC back into window. 🤔

See how much I know about orchard? 😁 Now birthing a horse or goat, I'm pretty good. But love the learning for other things. So, thanks for sharing your research.
