how about a Oklahoma,AR,MO,KS,TX,+IA GTG thread?

Good morning!
Yesterday was a productive day. Got most of my deck torn off, I plan to use the materials to build a chicken house. I figure after fifteen years, most of the CCA in the lumber is washed off, and if I paint it with paint approved for livestock contact, it should be OK. I hate it when something I build rots a few years later. It should be a pretty sturdy structure. Fence pickets that made up the railing will be turned into lap siding with the same reveal as my house, and the deck board will be the floor. The joist will be ripped and used for the framing. I have some rubber imitation slate shingles I got at the Habitat Store several years ago, so Nancy will appreciate that stuff finally being put to use. I'll post some pics when I get it done.

I was going to get Americana hens for the green eggs, but my buddy says leghorns are the best layers, and they don't need nearly as much feed. I'm not planning to eat the shells, right? haha

If you prefer brown eggs, the red sexlinks breed of hen's are a production breed like the standard white leghorn.
Hard to beat the production of the leghorns.
That's why the pro's use em.

Hey folks

 

[Locust Cutter]

Evening all! Ran the S.S. for about 40 minutes tonight. It's a lot f fun, but it's amazing how much wood you can pile up (that you then have to stack) in that time...

 

[Locust Cutter]

Need to buy a tractor and then make a 3-pt mount, hitch or basket for the S.S. It's a lifesaver, but getting it back into places would be beneficial...

Flu sucks. Just took Isaac to the doctor, he was positive for the flu. He is the last of the household to get it, all 4 of us have had it.

Totally agree about the sucksiness. Just getting over it myself. In the space of coule hours i went from feeing good to crap. Now figting the give a craps like cobey. Amazing how that little bug can shake you like a rag doll and then slam you down. Guessing it takes a while to get strength back.
Go forth and conquer
