Braved the storm to collect eggs and feed everyone. One of the midgets was wedged in with the two Rps and I'm guessing the two crazy chickens. Its getting ridiculous.

Jrnash: sorry about your broody virus. When it hits it's rampant.

Ralphie: hope for a speedy recovery for your wife. Increased remote time. That's a true gentleman there.

My castle lost its moat when I left for work this morning. But it's rained steady all day. So might be back when I get home tonight.

Flood also brought some unwanted guests to the house. Only 5 venomous snakes in Mo. And this was in the yard.

A cottonmouth.

Talking about broodies... tonight when I we closing up the chicken coop, there was a chicken in the far nest inside. I couldn't see who it was so I climbed in to check. Would you believe that my silkie roo was hunkered down in a nest and making broody noises?! I know silkies are notorious broodies but that's just a bit weird. I moved him up to the roost lol

I recently (an hr ago) became aware of a state license required here in Texas called a game bird breeders license type 1 and 2. I've got bobwhites in the incubator and figured there would be some type of license required. 27$ a year for a type 2. No problem. What took me by surprise, and prompted a lengthy letter to my Congressional representative is that this license is required by anyone who raises ANY TYPE of turkey or duck. Its ridiculous. As I pointed out to him. What would have been your parents or grandparents response to a game warden coming on their property, pointing at the farm yard birds and telling them they had to have a license for the dinner running around in the yard.

Glad everything is OK Molpet. That can sometimes trigger spikes and fires
