Pastor Dave's Highlights

Today woke up sick this am early. General flu symptoms. Stayed in bed until 12:34 when I got a negative to my question, Have you watered and fed the rabbits? Jill doesn't know my system for thawing waterers, but she came out and helped and we got done quicker than usual.

I came in took some Tylenol and a phenergan tablet for nausea and passed back out til time to water abd feed again. It stayed below freezing today, but above in the shed, so an easier time of it this round. Threw in some extra straw because down to +11F tonight, and came in to spend time with y'all. I mean, the wife and kids. Having some Sprite with a chaser of Tylenol and some Oyster crackers. A littke queezy, but better than thjs am. :)
 
Sorry to hear ya are sick Dave...never good in such temps. How many bottles are ya talking about?....I'd have a an extra set and just trade them out and then thaw them inside where it is warm.....even if ya had to get a tote to carry them in. Sure hope ya get to feeling better and the temps begin to rise soon for ya.....:fl
 
Yah, I did that when it was below zero for a stretch. If the bottle isnt solid, I throw the nozzles in a gallon bucket of hot water and bust whatever ice in the mouth of the bottle to allow hot water poured in to thaw the ice and make it drinkable. It doesn't take long. Right now I have 5 breeders each with a bottle, and 2 grow-out pens with 2 bottles apiece.
 
Sorry to hear you're down with the flu. Hope you can kick it quickly. No fun doing chores or much of anything else when sick.
