Right now I am just hatching a few bantams for fun but the quail are for food so I really hope they get going this year. <br />I did see the fox streak across the yard this morning when I drove in from taking Phil to work. I do not find that real encouraging but I had all the ducks penned anyway (two have been running off in the woods on me and I didn't get them in until Phil helped last night). <br />It rained yesterday (YEAH!) but now I have to dust again, lol.becky3086https://www.blogger.com/profile/01026872543168452124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424703824657047654.post-82455015635023559482011-05-17T08:28:39.082-04:002011-05-17T08:28:39.082-04:00Areas of my life where we have become self suffici...Areas of my life where we have become self sufficient? I don't think it works that way. You can't break it down like that. If my life would fit into neat little catagories..maybe, but it doesn't. We are not self sufficient in producing our own food and may never be, but we do produce some of it. I don't completely produce our own clothing since I don't have a big cotton field hidden here in the woods. We don't produce our own energy since I don't have enough money for those solar panels I want and if you know anything about solar power you realize it isn't really self sufficient anyway. Fiona, I really don't know what you are wanting here. If you came here expecting that my having a self sufficient blog means that we are totally self sufficient, well we're not. We do things that are self sufficient if we can. <br />What is the next project? Who knows! Whatever opportunity presents itself. :)becky3086https://www.blogger.com/profile/01026872543168452124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424703824657047654.post-18596625790701915032011-05-17T08:26:43.659-04:002011-05-17T08:26:43.659-04:00Congratulations on the chicks that have hatched, I...Congratulations on the chicks that have hatched, I had 12 hatch in my bator yesterday & 2 last night, hope some more hatch today.

Try to get some rest, even just a little bit.floweringmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14458738097507242619noreply@blogger.com
