Another day, another beautiful day

The weather is actually nice out today. It's not as humid as it has been lately. I transferred 39 baby chicks to the brooder in the barn this morning. I hope they do well. After the backhoe incident, we still do not have power in the barn, evidently something pulled loose that can't be found. So they will have no light for the time being. I am hoping the current temps and their body heat combined will keep them cozy enough. I have several more hatches scheduled within the next few weeks, one the middle of this week, one next weekend and then I just set a batch yesterday, so in 21 days they will hatch. After that I believe I may take a break, I know I say that every time. I probably won't, I will find something to hatch. I really want some peafowl. I hope to get my hands on some soon. I have plans to pick up bobwhite quail chicks on Thursday, I hope it works out.
