Any chicken soup in there.?

Ditto. I figure they've earned their retirement.

Yes still bruised and stiff but still planning to drive to CA this Sunday.

I'm thinking that if I were a rooster I'd hide my spurs if I saw NanaKat with any of the aforementioned instruments in her hands. Spurs? What Spurs?

hope it comes on soon. It's way too hot so I hope you have a place to go! too hot to be with out AC. Caught said the hospital she works at had a lightning strike which took out the power, the emergency generator and the cat scan and other things.

I had a big one in the young chick run. it had two big lumps and I was missing two chickens. It just kept lolling there happily digesting a chicken dinner. I rudely interrupted him, and he got a free ride to the happy chicken hunting grounds. The minnow trap hasn't worked, maybe because the...

I contacted the game warden here and he said he couldn't set traps because of pets roaming the country. He also said he was swamped with varmit problems and if I saw it "take care of it" because it had let my daughter so close to it and was eating my poultry. It's getting the turkeys in broad...
