I have a Buff Orphington hen that also does what I assume is the "tidbit" sound when she's super excited about a treat. She'll stand looking at it going "tchook tchook tchook tchook tchook!" Which is promptly followed by the other hens snatching the food away from her, and her looking...

Ah, poor thing, that has to be frustrating for the both of you. I can't imagine the muscles in her neck feel good under that kind of tension, either. Here's to hoping she defies the odds yet again, but I'm glad you're willing to make the hard choice for her if it comes to that.

Are you sure he doesn't want a pet pigeon, à la Hatoful Boyfriend? ;D

I think that pretty much nails it right there, "derpy" is a new word and wound up going through a bit of growing pains with how people use it, but I think it has stabilized into a word that means something less hurtful than "stupid", it's become something that means goofy, nonsensical, just...

I can only hear "HODOR!!!" when I see that last picture of Derp.

So sorry to hear about Kua. She was lucky to have you and live in your flock. Even if it meant she had to give the hairy eyeball to an exceptionally odd Favrelle. ;)

Derp's egg song sounds like someone running amok with a damaged squeaky toy.

"I'm out here with my LADIES! Envy me and my LADIES! It's great being out here watching over my LADIES!" That's what it sounds to me he's saying anyways. ;)

I think you captured the essence of derp rather well in that one. ;)

She's sure the meat dispenser will pay out any day now...

Speak for yourself! I was underneath the coop halfway out while fiddling with the addition when I suddenly feel something tugging on my leg. I feel it again, and I squirm around to see two of my hens with predatory looks in their velociraptor faces and get another peck! They NEVER peck me...

With the weather finally warming up I'm sure Nambroth is crazy busy. The other day I was wondering how the flock was doing, and what new derpy things Derperalla has done.

There's programs that let you "virtually paint", and things called "tablets" (similar in shape to a kindle or ipad, but you use the stylus that comes with it to draw on the screen of your computer, as if the tablet was a pad of paper that only shows the drawing on your computer). A friend...

I see that on DA some people beat me to "chicken of the sea" jokes. ;)

I lol'd with the juxtaposition of an excited "Chickadee!" with a super frownie face hen. ;D Also, Mildred is the sweetest thing ever.

That whole situation is that comical mix of panic from the humans and excitement from the poultry. See that a lot with horses, too. ;) Baron is definitely feeling better if he has enough energy to try courting and jostling for face!

One has to strike a balance between what is best for the animal, what is best for oneself, and what is best for the finances. It looks to me that you've been solidly following that path, and while unfortunately the vet didn't give you a definitive answer, you did at least get peace of mind and...

Awesome Nambroth! I thought that would appeal more to you as both an artist and an independent person. :)

Or if you're against outright charity, you could sell some aceo's for a nice sum here as a fundraiser. I bet the Derp ones would go fast. ;) Very glad to hear it's likely not Marek's, and hopefully whatever it turns out to be is easily treated.

That's just awful for you, I'm sorry to hear your poor guy is so ill. :(
