Soo bad news or good news first? Lets start with the bad news eh? Ok...
-------
-------
Got two letters from Tim yesterday saying that he was probably NOT gonna be home for my spring break... Looking at another couple weeks at least before he gets out... Soo he's hoping he'll be home in time for his birthday (mid-March) so am I!! Will keep you updated on that front...
-------
Puppies!! Two are sold and picked out, one is not picked out but sold and we're keeping one!! James has decided that he wants a puppy so he's getting one from this litter... a female currently called "the twin" because she looks almost the same as the male. So there's one female pup left for sale!! They have all hit the one pound mark and are working towards 1.5 although they have slowed down on eating slightly. Yesterday they got to taste some turkey which 3 of them loved and one had no idea what to do with it (she took a piece into a corner and sat there staring at it!! The last puppy was sleeping and didn't really want to wake up for the food. We'll try some more turkey and maybe some venison today.
This morning the puppies got to try lapping milk out of a bowl! It worked!! YAY!! This will definitely make feeding them easier!! Now we just have to make sure that they're all getting enough to eat but that should be easy, I'm thinking the hard part will be making sure they don't OVEReat!! LOL
-------
The snow is... kind of going away... Kind of... It was almost gone and then we got another foot and now its been WAY below freezing for the past two days (2 degrees this morning!). Gonna call about getting some more hay sometime today, we are definitely gonna need some more before spring.
-------
Chickens are doing great!! I'm getting about 6-8 eggs every day!! Thinking about incubating a bunch of them come spring and seeing if the feed store will purchase the chicks. Also contemplating hatching some and bumping them off as day or week olds for the kitties... Not sure whether the cats'll like them or not though so we'll definitely start small with that venture!
-------
The mice are thriving!! I believe that I've got 3 prego females, 2 colored and one albino. The male is verging on obese so he'll probably be culled sometime this week assuming I can get somewhere to purchase a new male... Can't remember if I have a second male in the tank or not. I'll check that today.
-------
Talked to a falconer last night, probably gonna get to go out hunting a little bit over spring break!! YAY!! That oughta be fun!! I'll be sure and tell ya all about it if/when I go out. Depends on weather and snow fall.
-------
I guess that pretty much wraps up the news for the past couple weeks... I've been pretty delinquent about updating but I'll try and do better!!
That's all for now!
