WOW mate what a haul !! What breed lays those really brown ones?After a hectic day I've got my brother off for the weekend on a date. I'm going to to smoke this Vanilla Custard in a Seville Burgandy Lucite I just picked up. I feel like a dessert smoke because I have to wash eggs. Lots of eggs.
My ducks decided they didn't want to lay in their house. They all waddled up the plank into the chicken's nesting boxes and got mud on everything. Super cute but...It will take a while to clean them. Looks to be a multi bowl task for these eggs.

There's a few cats that live on the property where I work. It's a huge Quaker boarding school that is on a big farm with a lake and lots of acres of deep woods. The place was built in the late 1700s. Anyway we have a few cats that live near my offce on the property, myself and some other teachers feed them and leave cream out so they can lap it up! We haven't named them yet. I want to take one home but I don't know how the cat would act in a home. He or she might be mad or scared that I took them to an unfamiliar dwelling. I'll tell ya what though, if I find any kittens from the adult cats I'm definitely bringing one or two home to raise!They hang out in the yard and under the deck. Tomato the Brave always goes somewhere else to snooze when he doesn't spend the night inside. He used to stay outside until Harry the Hairy started being a regular. Abner the Eager doesn't sleep around our house because they other ferals don't want him around. Daisy the Feral Princess always spend the night inside.
Our neighbor built a couple of small houses for them, and they used to sleep in them, but not in the past year. I think they feel too vulnerable inside them. Abner the Eager used to snooze in one, but Tomato the Brave went in there to attack him, and Abner's never been in one since.
The Sutliff version. It's smoother. Can't tell you about the room note because I can never smell it. M'lady describes it for me.
Kittens adapt to being inside much better than older cats. Daisy the Feral Princess is eight or nine years old, and while she likes to be outside, she much prefers to be inside. She and Tomato the Brave came from the same home. He's about seven years old, and likes to be indoor and outdoors. Same goes for Abner the Eager, who may be a couple of years old.There's a few cats that live on the property where I work.

Those are Marans either French Copper or Cookoo. Usually the French Coppers lay darker brown ones.WOW mate what a haul !! What breed lays those really brown ones?
Tis the season for firewood. Once the greens at the course are tarped We take a crew of three and remove standing dead oak for firewood. I'm looking forward to it, aches and pains aside. I also included Bayou Morning in my last order, would love to see your thoughts on it.This morning I'm starting off with Bayou Morning in my trusty new MM cob.
Raining, but work to get done. Everyone is fed but me. Oh well.
I'm going to cut a couple of cords of firewood today for the new woodstove.

I just sliced up a dozen 80' trees they left on the ground when they logged my property into 12' pieces I can grab with the excavator. I hold them one at a time over the dump truck bed and cut the rounds right into the bed. No heavy lifting of rounds anymore. Alas they don't split or stack themselves.Tis the season for firewood.
