Up at 5....coffee then. Breakfast over. Frustratedly watching incubator full of eggs. 🤞🤞 Almost time to leave for work.

I'm not cut out for the worry. I like more control. 5 am, I'm checking eggs. Candling isn't fun! Of the dz eggs I bought, at least 2 weren't fertile -- too clear for any development at this stage. Didn't check every egg. Most are either where they should be, dark with air sack, or hard...

@farmerjan Yes, wafer type :he $9.54 at below...S/h ?? https://s3.amazonaws.com/assets.itemextend.com/gqf/media/CACHE/images/images/3007_600x600/f0666d2b3732005099577f83c81df728.png ETA...it's working but you only have a couple degrees between good and cooked. I'm just leary of it as I've...

Temps still cooler than normal aver but, that's ending Tues. Yeah mid 80s then! Summer is arriving. Winds from yesterday have subsided, you can walk and hold on to stuff today 👍 sun is out. I'd love to think I may get a garden started next week! That or at least these tomato plants in big...

Up half the night trying to get incubator temps stable again. Sure don't want to cook them at this stage! Old model is a manual, not a digital set 🥴. But, new lid with that feature is $145....won't help or get here for this last 6 days and may never do another load. So monitoring it and...

15-20 mph winds all day. Can't hold onto much! I'm inside being lazy.

I'm getting a day off from rain :clap plus, looks like a week of dry coming along, too. The hay guy will be glad -- he's got a lot to cut, going into too ripe status.

Morning chores, then off to jobs in 2 stores. Worked all day...came home, ate a few bites of tuna salad, then outside to chores. Just got in from milking and egg collecting. Time to rest!! Thinking early to bed tonight 👍

Maybe you're not :lol: :lol: :clap

🤔 Think I see where this is going :lol: Tractor you can use right away. Heifer, you've got about a year to hug & wait for milk. You just like her looks☺️

They look so contended up there ☺️

My next auction day is the following Saturday! 😄👍

Same here -- just me. But I grow veg, can, freeze, buy only discounted meats. Occasionally raise a pig or send a goat to butcher. Some yrs I butcher a couple young, excess roo. This yr hatching so prob will be fall freezer fill. I keep & milk goats to have milk, cream, cheese, etc. pretty...

I buy from ForJars...nice product. It's not the lids, just what gets between lid & glass rim. People have been successful canning with fats in product. 😊 Still overcast & all day, off & on drizzles...thru Fri. Be glad to see the sun!! Actually had some clearing late day yesterday, with...

So next time you make broth, just cool it, remove the tallow reheat broth & pressure can. Same with tallow, reheat, strain, jar it. 😄 Then you have the best of both to use together or not ☺️ I reduce the "oils" in my broth that way. It's a consideration when the canner causes venting. If...

That peach nest is amazing! 😄🥰

Great decision....

I had a piece of cubed streak 🤷 a few mushrooms tossed I pan...that's it. Veg may have been good. Didn't do, no interest.

Coffee is up. Couple light chores and off to work. Overcast, cool 57 out & rains predicted for later. It's been a really cool May around here. Esp late in the month. Odd really.

I'm halfway...day 11 of eggs in incubator :clap Better get chick nursery set up this coming weekend 😉
