Was that you in the background of Bam Bam's video? Nice to see I'm not the only one doing farm chores in shorts :duc:hide :lol: It's HOT out there! Great videos. Feel a little bad for the lizard though... He just wanted some fresh insects to eat.

I put the bib overalls up once it hits abt 70 and go with cargo shorts unless handling hay, then I sweat through it wearing bibs.
When I mow, I put on high athletic socks and work boots because of snakes and poison ivy/oak and such. Chores with the bunnies is often done in [shorts] sneakers or even crocs. It is hitting low 90's here. Gotta adapt.

Roger that. That's an older video... DH has been going thru the hours of files to preserve them onto youtube. Computer is getting old. use it or loose it.

97*F and 100% RH.. heck yeah.

I lot of them pop off.. sad, but the livestock doesn't break thru fences anymore.

I dress accordingly for certain chores. I break out easy with ivy.
One thing is for sure.....there is never a dull moment at your place.....:).....how are the ducks doing?
Son's family moved in. House is packed.. understatement. Ducks are total free range. Dogs protect them. The free birds have excepted them.. weird. I think one drake/2ducks.
I'll post pics soon. Been spread out too thin. I should hang out here more than byc I suppose. Chickens are a tiny fraction of what we do. I have a lot more to share. Thanks for responding. Glad to see you guys still around.:hugs

Nice looking animals. Bam bam seems quite a character.
:hide He was euthanized in 2016. He went to the "dark side of the force"

.
Killed a pregnant nanny and DH did an eye for an eye thing. She was due to drop her twins 2 weeks later. Bam took out 3 in one.
He had a screw loose. 8000 volt hot wire wouldn't phase him. He was too dangerous.
He was a hoot when he was young.. a force to be reckoned with in his last days.
Pix of his final days-

Yeah, no sense keeping a dangerous animal around. Sorry he had to be put down.
