The Call Again Farm Journal

What a miserable day!  The temperature is hovering right around freezing, and a what the radio calls a "wintery mix" (alternating rain, sleet, and snow) has been coming down all day.  I couldn't have chosen a worse day for turkey pick-up.  I showed a new customer my turkeys, and they were so wet and miserable that the toms (males) wouldn't even make the "gobble" noise for her!  I am also having pick-up tomorrow and Wednesday, so I hope the weather is better then. 

I only got one chicken egg today.  Bob needs to put the second light up, and get a fence up around the garden so the chickens can go outside when the weather is nice enough.  After those things are done, the additional light should stimulate them so their rate of lay will go back up some.
