Been a productive day around our house

First duck egg

My 20 week old Pekin duck laid her first egg early and she of course laid it into her pond for me to find.

Rat snake in the coop.

What about it?

I went to check on the chickens today and as I opened up the lid on the nesting box this rat snake fell into the coop. It's head was stuck as it had an egg half way down it's mouth. So the girls are spending the night in our fenced in greenhouse (winter harvest style hoop house). Figure we need to put some hardware cloth over the nesting box now. The roof swings open, so there is a small gap. Tried to grab it a with litter grabber/claw...it was not toi happy about that.

What’s wrong with my pears?

What about it?

I’m thinking it’s a fungus but don’t know how to treat it safely.

always heard turkeys were deadbeat dads, guess nobody informed mine of that

Anyone need a bunch if walnut?

Peach and Pear Harvest! One tree each.

What about it?

This is the first year we got usable fruit from the tree or the local critters didn't get it all before us.

In Avengers: Endgame (2019) Captain America says "Avengers Assemble" even though they are already assembled and as soon as he said it, they immediately do the opposite and break the assembly because they aren't Avengers
