hey java! how many chicks did you get?

ZERO!

There was no crying either. I do have an order in though and it should come in a couple weeks.

Craptastic is the weather word of the day.

Sure is! Practically every other day they have rain in the forecast here. :/

Karen - does Meyer's stock the Sweetlix minerals? I need to get some more and I'm trying to find the best way of getting it. I had to order a tub last time and pay shipping. All I can find down here is Purina.

I'm thinking about buying a bag of Purina to put out until the kids are gone - they keep playing in the mineral feeder and dumping it. Then I could top dress the grain for the mamas with the Sweetlix I have left to be sure they are getting what they need.

Hope you made it to Wooster. I thought it was a good conference and as usual learn things I can apply to my small apiary. How is your winter survival?

Yep, I made it there and back fine. Just wet. We don't have any bees yet, we are ordered a package that we will get in April. I am debating on adding another and that way start with 2. I just don't know and money wise it can be expensive.

I agree, rain, rain, rain. Yuck!

No, Meyers doesn't have it but Nova Farmers Supply does have it. Nova Farmers Supply isn't far from Meyers. That is where I get my goat feed/minerals.

We have a flippin' lake in the backyard right now and those idiots are trying to get into the chicken run to...yes, play in the chicken's water dish Our yard has so much water in it that we have wild mallards dropping in for a swim and all my dummies can think about is how to get to that tiny water bowl.
