You make me look like I'm sleeping. Wish I lived on site!

Agreed, 140+ days gone off site last year. It’s much easier when you live here. Although the wife is taking up valuable time now…..
Oh...Son...
You better rethink the way you just said that...
Thinkin like that and you're headed for a world of trouble...
some I know has some experience in this area...

Looking great Shawn.
Kids today don't know how easy they have it. When I was young, I had to walk 9 feet through shag carpet to change the TV channel.

Thanks Tex!

It turned cold again here yesterday. High of 53 and rain, ready for my 60’s and 70’s

Thanks Big D, between weather and getting shop back making money this will slow down a bit soon. Quite a few projects in the pipeline. In addition we have a week in Yellowstone at fishing bridge campground (only campground with full hookups in the park) we booked a year ago coming up. Looking forward to checking out for a week. Doing some hiking, finishing a book and just checking out.

Got back yesterday afternoon from a week of camping in Yellowstone. The chickens are getting big and need their outside run. Wife and I did a lumber yard trip this morning and commenced building what will be a steel covered 4’ x 8’ run. This was around 5pm today.

Tell me about how you took care of the chickens while gone for a week?  Automation? Friends helping?  Curious.

Charles, there are good automation solutions out there and many made from pvc diy that are easy and good for several days at a time. You have the benefit of warm climate so easier in winter months. Probably can also wire up auto shutters for ventilation.

We’re planning on pvc diy feeders in the future. This trip my good retired lineman neighbor kept the bees fed with sugar water and fed / watered the chickens. We’re actually raising a couple more chickens for them with our new brood. So it’s a win win……

Oh, and we have a red with black tail weasel that is running around the property killing mice. Unfortunately they can kill chickens too. So I’m learning how to make a weasel box trap now……
