Keeping cool was the name of the game this week. Wild weather included 80% humidity, 90°+F temperatures, torrential rains and two, confirmed tornadoes in the area. Thankfully, we are no worse for the wear and the grass and flowers

These eggs will be blown out and sold for decorating. The eggs’ contents are a great source of protein & will be fed back to my peeps.

Kathy, I am proud to support your challenge. I am from Arkansas, and I live in the country so haven't the issue, but my sister lives in town (Springdale), would like chickens but No chickens allowed. Have any suggestions on how to change that. The towns around it can have (I think) 2, no roosters. You seem to have done everything right, did you have a lawyer?
