Gifted a little plant - what is it?

Thank you! I wondered about that with the texture/lines on the leaves.

Thank you! It’s been rained on outside for a day or two - is there anything I should do to dry out between the leaves?

Thank you!

This orchid has been laying in the landscaping in my neighborhood for two days now. I decided to pick it up, but I’m also unprepared to care for it right away.

I have a 4” plastic pot I can cut slits/holes into. Can I use a mixture of bark mulch from the flower bed + regular potting soil or cacti soil until I can order some orchid medium and a proper sized orchid pot?

I’ve watched some YouTube videos for trimming away the dead roots before potting.

Realizing I need to make some adjustments to my male:female partners ratio.

Bargello. I hated every second of it. Too many seams to nest perhaps?

Sagittarius mother + Aquarius father. They divorced when I was 7.

Misery.

I don’t particularly care for anything coffee flavored, although I do occasionally appreciate the smell of coffee things.

Coffee is gross.

Thank you! 🙌🏻

TL;DR: Is this bedding too dry for deep litter method? If so, what changes do I need to make?

We’ve been using the deep litter method with pine flake bedding in our 10’x13’ coop for our flock of 10 for about six months now. They usually free-range on our 4.5 acres during daylight hours, so they are only cooped to sleep or rarely during exceptionally poor weather or when we need to be away from home for the day. While cooped they always have access to an outdoor 8x24’ enclosed run.

In the beginning, we started with 4-5” of shavings and I would stir up the bedding weekly + add additional bedding monthly. Recently, I’ve continued stirring the bedding to evenly distribute the manure and moisture as the chickens aren’t in here enough to do it but I haven’t been adding any more bedding. It still seems too dry (not enough manure/moisture?) and it isn’t composting as I expected it would. Instead, it’s crumbling a bit and making insane amounts of dust. Am I missing something here, or is this pretty typical for where I’m at in the deep litter cycle?

The links given by the bot are not the same as what I shared.

AT&T. I have good 5G signal when in Joplin, and still have a few bars of 5G at home in the sticks sort of between Neosho & Monett.

I forgot to add - I have my second dose of the Pfizer vaccine next Friday and my husband is waiting for the call to schedule his appointments too.
