Chores for Thursday

Morning:
  • Verified that cattle were still in the pasture
  • Gathered eggs (26)
  • Fed chickens
  • Adjusted light timer
  • Put in last set of windows in chicken rooms for cold weather
  • Loaded some items on trailer for transport to Ashfield Fall Festival prep tomorrow
  • Sorted, packaged, and delivered eight dozen eggs to local general store

Afternoon:
  • Worked with brother and nephew to unload bags of poultry feed from pallet
  • Gathered eggs (9)
  • Fed chickens
  • Laughed at sound of bantam rooster crowing (sounds like full-sized rooster with laryngitis)
  • Closed windows against cold for the night
  • Put bags of sugar in crates for Fall Festival

Tonight:
  • Wash pan of cotton candy machine (delayed to Friday)
  • Double-check that light timer turns out lights at the correct time tonight — if not, turn them off manually
