Yeah, I'm in that "hazardous heat" to the right. It is that!!! 98* with 112 feel like yesterday late day. Just a tiny bit cooler earlier....maybe 5 degrees 😳
Outside 10 min and you're sweaty wet, and dragging like you've been sedated. It will pass but, sooner would be nice. This is extreme...
So HOT here -- no fighting 🤣, takes too much effort. These had only been in there one day. Didn't know where the roost was, or recognize it anyway. Today it's 95 with feel like 107.... Hotter to go 🤪🥵
Even the layers won't lay....
Really hot and it makes me a touch dizzy at times -- even with plenty of water!! The entire atmosphere is just dead, stifling, sauna air. Y'all be careful if you're in this weather -- I am!!
Feel bad for animals and I check water several times a day. They all have shade available, cool...
Never got around to moving the new broody. She has 6 eggs. What happens, happens. 😂. I check each day, morn & night, to remove any that may have been added.
Went out to coop/run where I put the 5 almost grown BOs I had bought & just moved to new, larger area to show them the roost 😳😖...
Today sun is up bright!! Predicted 98 with feel like of 105. 😳 This is happening all week. I prefer hot to cold but, this is testing my limits.
Did I somehow get moved to TX???
Lucky here because they're everywhere! So birds have a selection. Wheat will be harvested soon -- that gives the birds a better choice before elders are about ready to pick. Then, the ditch bank/roadway berries begin to dry and it'll be winter feed for them.
Peanut harvests, next; then corn...
Yesterday worked into a productive one. Got yard mowed, need to trim out today. Trip to dump with some storm blow stuff, on way for mower gas. Misc farm things happened and made cheese last night.
Mid day shower - sweaty from mowing, etc -- and an unexpected happened once I sat down.😂 Then...
Until they get into your chicken house!!! Then skunk eats eggs & possum kills the chickens....then you dislike BOTH. 😖
Another glorious day, for which I'm thankful. But that darned roo in my front yard, crowing is getting annoying. Where's the off button? He's stuck on repeat.😳...
Remember that you are milking some with higher butterfat in their milk. That makes a taste difference. As to "need" -- I don't really, except for cooking. Canned milk has risen in price like all things. I consider this to cost the price of a lid, so I'll not need to buy any. Plus I cook...
So the milk does have a mild canned condensed taste. It's sweeter than canned, also. Tried it on some cereal, that's acceptable, didn't add sugar. Great in hot tea....black coffee here but, would work like the hot tea. Cooking, great. Supplement a nursing kid, great. Not that I couldn't...
I took a qt jar from pantry to frig. Let you know tomorrow 😁 these were done 5/18. There is a tiny bit of beige from white color. Minor amount of separation, shook up very easily & well. No more than you see in a jar of fresh/raw that's been setting in frig couple weeks....nothing curdly or...
