The murmurs when there is a fresh layer of straw is my favorite. Cracks me up.Our girls get so excited about the piles of leaves and mud puddles rather than grass. I will say, I love their happy chatters when they find a new something or other. Or when they are sent to bed at night and they see their bowl of food or if there is fresh water...
so good to be back. (not going to read 3000 pages) would love to know how and what everyone is doing. 
I have been busy with a new job and chickens as well as the rest of the normal family stuff. I had forgotten how much I missed all of you and the information and funny stories! I'll give you one of mine and wait to hear all of your's.
. I ended up under the roosting area ( in the middle of the poop zone ) I had cornered my self with a live ( and angry ) possum, a 3 foot 2x4 and a 12 inch knife. Nothing gets to eat my chickens 
It was not pretty, my right hand looks like I was in a fight with John L. Sullivan, but I won!!! 
BF kept yelling from the open window was I sure I didn't want help, but he had on new shoes and I didn't want him to ruin them, as I ended up covered in chicken poop, but my girls remain safe.

She won't let me use the phone!
Are you able to build a fire? How about smoke signals?
Well, maybe, but it's windy, snowy, and freezing cold out.
They will also mate your female chickens if they can get to them.... not a good scenario to create IMO
hello everyone
Last weekend DD's BF was at the house and it was night fall, we heard Chickens clucking loudly and flying all over when they should have been sleeping. The problem was a large possum in an unlocked cage
Waiting with baited breath to hear all of y'all's stories!
Not my experience.
