Pup Light Giveaway!!!!!

I would like to think that just about everyone now a days has a pet or two. A dog or cat? And of course you have trouble at night seeing them when you let them out to do there "business." Well the very nice people over at pup light have helped the problem of not seeing your pet at night.

But since I have loads of animals I had to try different things! I wish I could have got pictures of all the goofy things I tried! I used the pup light on my goat,cat,dog,rabbit,chicken (Yes I said Chicken!)!




This is the package that it comes in. I was antsy so I opened it before I took a picture! Oh well! 


This is what the pup light looks like when you get it out of the package.

 The pup light comes with an extra "link." So for your bigger,fluffier dogs can also wear the pup light!


 This is just the light, small yet powerful!





So all in all I love my pup light! It is a wonderful product to invest in! You think right now that you will never use it, or it will just get messed up or some other excuse! But it will not break easily, or at least mine has not and if you get it muddy or wet it still works, mine does!
Please go to Pup Light  
and let me know why you would like to win... what does your dog or other animal you plan to use it on do that makes you want to win/buy a pup light!
Oh and also just for fun what color do you like?

What I Did The Other Day!

So the other day while it was cold out! I decided I would give some of my chickens a place to get out and run... the "barn" with the open door was what they were in so I wanted to be nice and let them be able to get in and out as the please!

 And this is what I did ... I just took my old dog pen and took three panels and boxed the chickens in ... or so I thought .. I had A feeling that they would get out and that would be the end of that till I could catch them.... So I left for a minute.. Yep they got out but luckily my hen went into another pen and I chased my other roster that I wanted with her all along in there with her! 


This is my hen and one of my roosters... he is not the one I wanted with her so when she got out I caught a White rooster and put them together! 


 I also acquired a goat. I had a pygmy goat and I let some of my friends keep her so she would have friends and she got pregnant and this is her baby .. because this year she was pregnant ( the other goat) and she died with those babies so they gave me her 1 year old for her to be mine. I hate that my other goat died but I do love this goat...she is mean and rough but I can only try and work with her and get her to do better...


And last but not least the ducks... they are taking a nap! I have gotten 2 or 3 more eggs out of them ALL are in the incubator will be posting pictures of the process before long... I have just today been able to see an embryo


 

Pup Light Review And Possibly A ?Giveaway?

I would like to think that just about everyone now a days has a pet or two. A dog or cat? And of course you have trouble at night seeing them when you let them out to do there "business." Well the very nice people over at pup light have helped the problem of not seeing your pet at night.

But since I have loads of animals I had to try different things! I wish I could have got pictures of all the goofy things I tried! I used the pup light on my goat,cat,dog,rabbit,chicken (Yes I said Chicken!)!

 But anyway! The pup light is a wonderful thing to have, we live out in the country and we have no lights anywhere except the porches, but everyone knows when you let your dog out they run WAY out there where you cannot see them and you yell and yell and stomp and scream for them to come back! Well that will happen no more with the pup light! The pup light has LED lights that are wonderful. My dog can run and run and run and I ALWAYS know where she is, if I do not see anything other than the light jumping up and down at least I know where she is!


This is the package that it comes in. I was antsy so I opened it before I took a picture! Oh well!

Just A Little Information...

I want to play smart and give everyone a little info on the whole incubation process.

I will explain this picture.

1. The first day the chick/duck/quail etc egg is placed in the incubator after you have let it stay at room temp for at least 6 hours... is just yolk...or so you think. So if you candle all your eggs already and you see nothing and you throw them out, you just messed up. The fist day you will see nothing, go ahead and put them in your incubator.
2.On day 6 you will see a little "pea" almost, and it will have little "tentacles". Well what the "pea" is the embryo of what you are incubating, and the "tentacles" are is blood vessels. At this point in incubation it is very important when you turn your eggs be very very easy! The embryos can detach from the blood vessels and they will die. Now sometimes if you have dark colored eggs you will not be able to see anything yet unless you have a high power candler, I just use a flash light in a pitch dark room. And also sometimes some eggs dark or light will not show anything for a while so if you do not see anything at a week leave them there for a while longer and wait.
3. On day 12 ish about 2 weeks you will notice a little body and blood vessels. By now if you can not see a body or anything other than the yolk, get rid of them. I have had more than one blow up from being rotten, because think about it you have eggs in about 100 degree temps and they have been in that for about 2 weeks, so when they blow up it STINKS!! And if you are doing this inside your home you do not want anything like that to happen. I have had it happen under a chicken.Crazy I know!
4. At about 3 weeks you will start to notice alot of dark when you candle your eggs. That is a good thing because that means you have an almost fully developed critter!
5. And at 4 weeks for most eggs they should start hatching! And when they do, do not help them unless you just HAVE TOO, they are still connected to the egg on the inside and it has to have time to dry and give there umbilical cord time to do what it needs to.

The picture of air sacs. Air Sacs are well air sacs for the baby ... the air sacs get larger as the baby grows, the babies will use the air sacs while they are in the egg to breathe.

The blood ring is usually a dead embryo. I have had it before and they hatch and everything work out.



This picture is a better one than above!

I just thought I would show some sort or intellagence.

So if you are doing this for the first time or not and have questions please feel free to ask I will help the best I can!



(* This is in my own words and how I have learned everything throughout the years, It may not be right to everyone because everyone has there own opinion on how to do things and I am just trying to help people the best I can*)

What I Plan To Do Tomorrow!

Tomorrow my plans are to fix up some pens for my chickens, do some things in the yard....

So I will be taking pictures of anything I think yall might find interesting!

upcoming giveaway!

I will be doing  a review and possibly a giveaway of a pup light.

Don't know what a pup light is?

I do not really know how many people do crafts anymore but I would love to get back into it! I love to make things and would love to hear your ideas on things to make or the things you do make!

Please share I would love to hear!

Incubating

I will be tracking my incubation process for the next 28/29 days! I have one duck egg in my incubator! And I want to see the fertility rate I have, I know I need more eggs to be precise, but I am doing good to have one egg! So I hope everyone is interested in seeing how this goes... I will be candling the egg/s every 6/7 days and will be turning the egg/s every day! 

So if you would like to watch a baby duck grow now is your time!!

 

Eating Time!!!

Yep that chicken has feathers on her head .. I can not think of what she is called for the life of me!!

There are some more of the ducks. The Jumbo Peking is a mess he thinks he is a human he will come up and eat out of my hand and nibbles at me all the time and wants to be right underneath me all the time!

TOOOOO cute!!

So are you wondering what is in my box?Well see it is a funny story! The other day when it was stormy and cold and everything I was a little worried about a few of my precious things I have outside! And those precious things are..........



 DUCKS!!! Yes I had ducks in the house! Crazy I know! But I was scared they may die! There is 3 babies and 1 adult....My adult will not leave them babies at all! She did not even hatch them she just got attached to them and now I cannot separate them!




I will post pictures of all of my ducks... I have 18 total so far!! They are all adults except 3 of them!!! They are precious tho!
