Feeding them is fun. They go nuts when something hits the water.

Found a great deal on cinder blocks. I needed 630 of them for my retaining wall and my worm bins and it was going to cost me 1050 dollars plus tax to get them from lowes. I found a guy that is selling 2000 of them for 1100 dollars in the town next to me. Going to get them Wednesday. Not only are they cheaper, but they are the better ones. The ones I was going to get where jus the regular cinder blocks for 1.60 each. These are the ones with a textured side and sell for 3 bucks each new. These are still on pallets, the guy is 75 years old and getting out of the concrete business.

Well got all the cinder blocks. And they guy threw in 3 free copper heads. Here are two of them, the chickens got the first one.



Poor truck, almost 10k lbs.



And here is what 2000 cinder blocks looks like.

I am sore from my eyeballs down. Most of the pallets where rotted out, so I had to unload each block to a new pallet, then he put the pallet on my trailer. Then when I got home my tractor could not lift the pallet, so I had to unload the top 2 rows again to a new pallet. Then unload the rest of the pallet. After that I had to unload most of the pallets again because we where running out of good pallets. I don't even want to know how many times I touched each block.
