This is Frances. Every morning she sits on the arm of the couch and preens herself. At dusk she comes in, sits on the couch & waits for me to come over. She likes to snuggle before bed. My husband can't really complain because she doesn't poop in the house/couch.
:weeIt's raining!!!!:woot:woot
Rain is always good in Southern California. Luckily I already prepped the coop for inclimate weather and I don't live in an area where there is wildfire damage.
Thanks staceyj. Hearing that the person looks better dead than when they were alive is one of the biggest compliments I can get. Now I have to get ready for the day, including getting the PIC up & outta bed. My chickens are out & running around like crazy in the backyard. They do enjoy their...
Good Morning Squatchers!! I'm drinking coffee, yes regular coffee fully loaded with caffeine, and waiting for the girls to wake up (including my PIC). Husband leaves the house around 4:30 to go to the gym & then to work.
:clapYou totally understand sassy!
Just like poop does not scare me. Krytonite to most people. Not me. I deal with poop at home & poop at work. Make friends with poop because it's not going anywhere, until you make it go away.
Thanks anansi & sassy. I could hang with you guys all day too. Chicken people are so much more understanding & accepting of people who the rest of the world consider "not normal." Goodnight Capricornfarm!!!
I'm proud of what I do and wouldn't want to do anything else. I have a BA degree in English, but the only profession I could go into was teaching. Not for me. I decided to go to mortuary school & finally do what I always wanted to do.
Sometimes I just have to be careful when discussing my day...
I heard about someone being on the bachelor who was in the funeral industry. I never actually watched it so I don't know what she really did in the business. People like to claim that their morticians, but don't actually ever touch a dead body. They like the shock value & other people's...
Gemma and Harriet are buff Orpingtons. Frances is an Easter egger. Alice is a barred rock. Edwina was my other barred rock who died from a horribly impacted crop. By the time I realized what was happening, it was too late. She had always been a little on the not too healthy side. Still sad &...
I'm also glad Smuvers had more babies for me to look at and vicariously pretend they are mine. Sweet babies :love. My chickens are doing fabulous. Alice is still molting & really crabby. Gemma is in charge & makes sure the others follow the rules. Harriet likes the new girl Frances. And Frances...
Finally! I finally got all caught up with this thread. It's the beginning of the busy season for me at work, so I fell miserably behind in the ugly chick thread. By the time I got back to 30+ pages had already gone by. I'm glad I found all of my favorite BYC peeps.
