Still hot.

Right now weather.com says we are at 93F, heat index of 99F. Which is better than 118F heat index, to be sure, but it's still hot.

Lost two more chicks to the heat, one was the sole Ameraucana hatched out here in spite of the week without electricity caused by tornadoes in April.

Still getting no eggs, now not even from the Ancona ducks. I started closing them in a stall in the barn again last night, and letting them out at noon. They have food and water in there, of course. No eggs this morning but I'll keep it up and keep hoping.

The cotton farmer next door has been spraying his fields again the last two days, so I'm not even keeping the milk from the goats. Luckily we have two gallons ahead in the fridge so we won't go without.

Not much else I can think to write about now.
