Do you ever freeze milk for when you don’t have a doe in milk? Milking 3, even sharing with kids, is a lot of milk! Miss Prissy threw her feed! Haha! What a Diva!

Hard rain woke me up a little after 2 AM. On second cup of coffee. Still pouring down. Got 1 inch yesterday, looking for Noah’s Ark to stop by here at daylight.

Cows are wearing leather coats, hair on, for extra warmth. ❤️

Gonna rain here today and tomorrow. I’ll be a wet sheep momma. A barn would be nice….

Back to cold/chilly weather here, after a week of temperatures up to 80degrees. Maybe those blasted giant gnats will stay away for awhile. It’s supposed to rain tomorrow, Wednesday and Saturday. wet conditions make them worse.

Notice the frame pieces stick out further than the coop? T-posts driven on each side of each runner and rope tied to each post, low.

That’s a whopping big egg! I’m missing having chickens, but not enough to get some.

Hi and welcome from East Texas. You have some awesome skills. Beautiful woodwork, building your own furniture, better than anything you can buy.

I’m building what’s supposed to be a temporary coop for meat chickens, I pick up chicks February 19. But I may be tempted to get some sex link chicks when the CCX go out. Maybe.

Coffee is ready. I’ll be working on the hoop coop today. Goal: put hardware cloth down the sides, put plywood on the back.

Cheaply made goods with high prices is what we get now. Appliances no longer run forever. I bought a used Harvest Gold upright freezer when I was 19. Hated that ugly color. It finally died some 35 years later.
