In about two weeks we have gotten almost seven inches of rain. I'm not gonna curse it just yet because I know about mid August I'll be begging for it. Went out to check the chickens this morning and found that one of my Ancona hens must have drown overnight during the torrential downpour. They haven't started roosting yet so I'm hoping by lowering the roosting poles they will start anytime. So that means that we are down to nineteen pullets and and three hens. It won't be long and we will have more eggs than we will know what to do with. The weather is suppose to be nice for the next week, nothing but sunshine so maybe the ground will have time to dry up a little.
