Recovering

I still have no idea what this stupid congestion is from, but my ear problems have cleared up. Now I'm just tired and achy with no time for such. Rough night with lots of abdominal pain, thankfully Flash is a great heating pad and loves that duty. After an hour of curling up around him, the pain subsided and I managed to fall asleep.
I'm watching Tiger's dogs today, which is basically just driving around the block and doing things for them - in, feeding, watering, etc. Sound familiar?
The multiple clutches of ducklings and chicks are doing well. The basics are pretty simple - water and food. Food once a day, water twice, check on them multiple times a day. The duckling who was hatching yesterday afternoon didn't survive the night, sadly. So we're at 11, I think. Its a bit hard to get numbers when you have a hissing mother and scrambling ducklings every time you look.
Hoping to be feeling better by tomorrow because I absolutely have to get those pens ready and the ducks separated. I have orders for two ducks: a mix female and a Rouen drake. Pickup this weekend. Its a start, but a very slow one. I need to through some juju behind my marketing and get that selling energy moving. I have several Philippinos who are looking for meat birds, so once I can identify the drakes, we'll likely be selling off as many as possible for freezer camp.
We moved my recumbent bike over to Tiger's so she can work on her physical therapy at home. This is a bonus for me, as well, given I don't really have room for the damn thing here and I can do my time on it while I'm hanging out keeping an eye on Tiger. She's quite bossy and willing to nag me up on the bike for 45 minutes a day minimum.
And now I think I'll take a little nap.

See you soon!
