IF it ain't ants, it's fleas... one of my mother's favorites... i don't know what we haVE GOING ON IN THE BARN..... THE WAY IT GOES IS.... VOMIT--TEHN SPRAYED POO WATER TYPE.. NO TEMP NO EAt-- no drink 24 hours.--. miserable..-- then nibble--then considerably better just in time for the next one or two on the same rotation... we don't think anyone has got it a second time.... but... we have young pups... who could not \stand to go thru that...-- so-- among other things we have a walk thru basin at the door with a towel and chlorox solution in it.,and today i really don't want anone from the barn in here....-- i will punch cards for people... we are so far helathy- but we could have a huge problem at any moment... such is a real life animal oriented episode...
we are all vacinated etc so should be ok... there 's alot of things it could be.. george is on deck and told us what to do... we may start iv's earlier than we ordinarily would .... i usually say more than 24 hours of waterry stool gets fluids.. .. mopping we are rotating in and out of the icu building except we coudl use 10 "stalls"... and lotsa chlorox.
so far none in the deagle or nutt or main house it will be a struggle to keeep it that way, but we must try...
******
now for the other good news and bad news.....good news for staff.... we really must get everyone over the minimun wage... and if you CP'S all keep going at the current rate, we should be able to...let ther be not one ounce of confusion... your chicken bricks pay teh payroll- and to get everyone over minimun will be another $3000 per month... our mail call type cash and checks seem to be keeping up with that-- but i woulod feel alot better if every one of you who can... get one more person addicted to teh cameras so they could buy a $10 brick a month. could we have a goal of increasing teh chincken board by 300 bricks by june 1st????
it drives me nuts--- well alot of thngs have driven me permantly nuts... however....it makes me worried to think that people are living, paying morgagees and making car payments based on the chicken bricks and shatupon society... but THAT IS FACT !!
WE DO HAVE 90% OF TEH separTE FINAQNCES FOR THE INTERNSHIP PROGRAM... LAURA, HAley,bella tanner,jade will do 3 days and one overnight for about 3 months... $25,000 - . devlin is a slightly different cataGORIE.. ... SHE IS OUT OF SCHOOL AND READY TO WORK LIKE A REGULAR JOB..... OK... SO SHE WILL BE WORKING 5 DAYS AND NO OVERNIGHT.--
BECAUSE OF THIS, YOU... AS IN CAMERA PEOPLE "YOU" SHOULD HAVE MUCH MORE DOGS ON CAMERA TIME...
******
\MANY OF YOU ARE SENDING IDEAS OF WHAT TO HAVE THISE KIDS DO... SOME REALLY GREAT IDEAS.. FROM COOKING A MEAL TO WRITING A DAILY DOGGIE.... OR AT LEAST A PARAGRAPH/TOPIC FOR THE DD... THERE IS ALSO TEH TRACTOR LEARNING JOB ... OF "TURNING OVER THE MANURE PILE/ COMPOST PILE OUT BEYOD TEH POND... IT SHOULD BE "TOP SOIL" BY NOW AND READY TO SPREAD-- OUR GRASS AREAS HAVE SUFFERED BADLY THIS WINTER. IT IS POSSIBLE TO SPREAd FERTALIZER AND LIME WITH MY CAR-- A GIZZMO THING FITS INT HE TRAILER HITCH AND PLUGS INTO THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER... A FLIMSY ARRAINGEMENT , BUT IT HAS WORKED FOR YEARS...-- NOT ENOUGH UMPH TO SPREAD SAND IN TEH WINTER, BUT PELLETED LIME... YES.
