The little Porsche as I have dubbed him/her has become my little buddy. So far, they haven't pooped on me and seem to enjoy sitting on my lap but one of our Maine Coons gets really annoyed with the peeping and keeps trying to come over and get at the little guy. Putting down that other one...
Long time listener, first time caller. I'm MichiganWood's husband. That dog really scared me a few weeks ago when I was adjusting the sat. dish in the pouring rain in the dark. All of a sudden, something massive was running at me full steam. Think "Blair Witch Project" or whatever that...
"Black Pearl" seems unaffected by the heating element injury on day 2. He's been tracking me tonight with the eye that had been shut yesterday and it seems to be perfectly fine. I believe he lucked out and just irritated the tissue below his eyelid.
So, that's good news!
I've swapped out webcams and this one is sitting right in the pool with them. I figure I am only out ~$10 if they peck the heck out of the lens. So far, they find the new 'large eye' very interesting. They have been pecking at it quite a bit too.
They eventually get bored and then fall asleep...
Chicken #5 has hatched but seems to have a crooked leg.
I'm keeping a running picture collection over on my Facebook account: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=43986&l=ccb9d&id=782073680
MichiganWoods and I suspect #6 will hatch over night.
