Ice storm, no lights for sixty hours, still eight inches of slush on the ground even though it has been above freezing for two days, and the Hamburgs have given me two or three eggs every day except the one when the breaking limbs in the orchard and the oak grove sounded like artillary fire.
Yesterday they were complaining about a leak in their run cover where the weight of the ice has pulled a seam apart; I didn't fasten their door correctly when I went to look for tools, and Elvis and Suzzy both got out. I yellwe" get back where you belong" and Suzzy, who is a bit of a break-out artist and has had this conversation before,went right back in; Elvis was right behind me and I leaned over, grabbed him by the saddle-feathers and then got him by the shoulders; He griped a little but didn't struggle.
I am not young, fast, nor agile, and my SSHes are not particularly flighty!
