We're still working on the homestead; trying to get things done while you're working is really difficult. I've been trying my hand at a couple of new things. I incubated and hatched bobwhite quail and chickens. I now have about 28 quail that are doing pretty well and 29 chickens of various ages (from 17 weeks to 4 weeks). Hopefully, my oldest ones will start laying eggs here pretty soon. Some of the roosters are going to be sold because I don't want any fighting and you can't have but 1 rooster for every 10-15 hens soooo. Thought about having them for dinner but I think I can get a better return by taking them to the auction.
Of course, since I wrote the above 2 of the roosters apparently got into a fight and one of them is injured. Need to figure out how to separate them or he might be going into the pot after all.
Well, gotta get back to work, get ready for the kids.
