Thanks snowflake, looks pretty

Home of the world's cutest dachshund, one crazy blue heeler, two cats,
              one fat pony, and many (but not too many!) chickens

              Can anyone tell me, how many are too many chickens?

It was good to see you again. I think you were the first BYCer that I met in person.  You were certainly the first to lend a helping hand when I needed it. 

 

I'm happy that Jude liked the skunk. Everyone who showed up liked Sebastian. BFM even gave him a bath and showed me how to do it.  And no one got sprayed...lol.png

And for what it's worth, my yard is always in flux. I don't think that it will ever be done, but I'm OK with that. wink.png

I will be taking bets on how fast he rolls and looks spotted again.

sweet donkey, do you ride him?

 

LOL, No, I don't ride him.  He is a miniature, only 34 inches at his shoulder.  Only a small child could ride him.  I would like to train him to pull a cart though, like my miniature horse does.  He would be so sharp in the black and red harness.

First year flock mom - so far have 2 EE, 4 BO, 4 BA, 5 Silkies, 2 Peafowl, 15 Araucana, 1 Lavender Orpingtons and 3 Light Sussex.  Barn mom to 2 QH, 1 mini horse, 1 mini jack and 2 dogs.

Well, if he goes back to the wild, he will need that gland.

If I decide to keep him, then other considerations may be needed.  However, I think that wild critters should be in the wild. It is going to depend on how his personality develops.

Darn chicken math...........What kind of trouble you getting me into guys!

 

Raz, are we still on with the fish Monday?   Call me if anything changes!

 

Nigellas, I dug up 3 hostas for you, they'll be plenty big to split if you want to... I'll be out around 2ish!

 

I am bushed... I set tiles in my parents shower walls all day today.  It'll look nice when we're done, but it's been a tedious job.

 You know, even with that gland removed they still smell like a skunk. I had a pet one for many years and he still smelled like a skunk. A friend of mine had one also and it still smelled like a skunk.
