I had a really busy afternoon and evening so I needed to use the time that I had wisely. I got Jacob to help me and he was such a cheerful helper. I need to remember that more often than not he is willing to help me clean if I just make the space for him.
The video this time is just a one day vlog. Christopher did some work in the master bathroom and was able to get a coat of sheet rock compound of half of the bathroom. He has also been working out how he wants to install the remaining indoor units for the A/C because we have had some problems with our other units in the living room and the kitchen.

Bought another busted hybrid, had an adventure getting it on the road.
The pilot bearing that came with the clutch kit is the wrong size. Bought this one off Amazon and it worked beautifully.

This one is a really short one. It's the part of December where we are just doing one thing after another and it's starting to get to me. So I have a feeling that all the videos are going to be really short from now on. But I will still try my hardest to make sure I get SOMETHING up for you guys.

Glycol chiller + Pex cassette = ICE battery. Follow along as I build my first large scale version of an ice battery. I also go into a few of the calculations, I realize I'm not the best at explaining and don't have the best visuals. Feel free to knock me in the comments and I can share some of the numbers with you.
After this test I feel confident this is feasible to offset how many chemical batteries I'll need for going off-grid. Here in the great state of Texas our cooling load will be over half our energy consumption with much of that being during the day when the sun is beating down. That's a good thing for when I go mostly solar but for now I want to do a baby step of purchasing a free nights and weekends plan, building up ice overnight, and using it to cool the house during the day. Should be able to shift a good 30-40% of my daily load into the night time hours this way without having to touch any chemical batteries.
This is a common solution in commercial buildings, I've seen and done some research. Feel free to point out if I'm doing something silly that someone has already found a solution to though!

This Saturday Christopher finished Jacob's slide and I walked you guys through our plans for expanding our garden. I also did a good old fashioned seed haul from MIGardener.

Today Christopher helped me move the wire coop out so the chickens could have more room and Jacob and I made Christmas cookies! It was a rather busy day but we had lots of fun.

The answer to the question in the title is no. No they are not. Oh well.
I had been observing the chickens today and I noticed that they were checking out the new coop so I was hoping that when evening came they would willing go into the new coop and then I wouldn't have to train them to it later. Unfortunately they were not that smart and when I went to check on them this evening they were all huddling in their rather drafty metal cage. Better luck next time.
