What are we voting for I saw references of it but not really sure

The voting is to bring back some emogies that were lost when the big change happened. Like the happy hen and jumpy chick.

I went back and found Kiki's post.

Vote if ya can please:

Balls the time change has me a little off.
I just tried putting my Minis to bed....They protested and said they had one hour left.

Oh!! HAHA!!! I am soooooo slow sometimes!!! You were talking HOOMANZZ.. Yeah they are the ones that actually speak...........I may be spending to much time with the chickens.

What shows/programs does everyone watch???

I have Netflix and Sling. Most of my stuff is true crime stuff, reruns (MASH, Supernatural, Monk, Greys Anatomy recently), Adult Swim at night, and then I sleep with the telly on too!

You say such horrible things.


I totally feel your pain on the remodeling. I lowered my roosts and fixed my poop board do to the pdz thing and the roost was too high. My poor bantam was sitting on it like she was thinking 'How the eff am I supposed to get down from here?', I lowered it, but they don't like that I took away one of their roosts. There was a lot of pecking going on. Are the ramps too steep? I had one no one would use and it was too steep for them to climb. I hope you get everything done in time! I'm right there w/ you about loving food. I look in the mirror and it's like wtf happened.. then I eat an entire pizza. A couple weeks ago a friend took a pic of me from behind and then uploaded it to fb and tagged me in it. I was like Really?


I blame the full moon on the roosters being jerks. Mine was a turd today after he was such a good boy yesterday. There's this puffy stuff the vet gave me once when my cat had been bit by something and had a good patch of his leg muscle exposed. He wouldn't quit licking it and it looked like raw hamburger. TSC has something similar, you just puff it on the spot. It's an antibiotic.. It could help if it's an infection. https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/ideal-instruments-nfz-puffer?cm_vc=-10005


I have mine in a plastic trash can w/ a lid. It holds about 2 50lb bags.


Those are amazing! This is the bday cake I made for my tiny human this year. Normally we do penguins, but for some reason she recently became obsessed w/ chickens. I love seeing the things people come up with.

You all are so creative! If I tried to make a chicken, it would come out looking like a sick frog or something.

I have Netflix, but rarely watch it.
I watch reality tv, Young and the Restless and ID (true crime).

ID was my FAVORITE when I had cable...... but there's enough things on Sling and Netflix to keep me satiated.

Ok.....I have to share with all of you the cupcakes I made. I'm so excited that they turned out so well.View attachment 1179819 View attachment 1179820

Super Cute! I wouldn't want anyone to eat them. All that work and it's gone in a few bites.

Grain beetles. Or
meal moths maybe.

Yes. Those are the bugs. Couldn't think of the names.

I'm constantly moving stuff around in the coop. I put up a tree ramp cause they insist on roosting in the rafters. I put a couple of them on it and led them up and down with a treat. Now I see most of them use it.

He has never done anything like that before. I didn't open the pop door and went in to check on everyone. On my way out I shut him in the door! I stepped back in and he walked quickly towards me. Not a run but a menacing purposeful walk. I stood up tall and pushed him back with my foot. He looked at me and decided to try again. I did the same thing and walked at him. He backed down.
Once the pop door was open when I went in the coop he didn't do it again. He's on my radar now though. I will not tolerate that!

I'll have to look for that puffy stuff. I wiped her neck again and brownish yuck came off. It smells funny but not like infection. Sorta wet dirty dog smell with a little something else. The worst timing ever for a vet visit. Which she hates going to anyway. If she needs to go I'll find a way. I'm hoping it's something I can take care of.

Cute cake too!

Ha Ha Adult Swim! I've been watching Futurama most of the day. The theme song is my ringtone btw.

Working a second shift schedule I never see new episodes of anything. I watch a lot of crime shows. CSI, Law and Order, Criminal Minds. I loved House when it was on. I do weird fantasy type stuff too. Warehouse 13 was a good one.

Jesse Martin (det. Green) can sing! He was in the movie version of RENT. I had a hard time not seeing his that character at first! LOL Same with Jeremy Sisto (Lopo) I watched all of Six Feet Under. He was Billy to me...not a cop. LOL

I've had some pretty bad cake wrecks. There's a penguin cake we don't speak of. A really amazing sloth cake. It's Belt from The Croods.

IDK what I did before Netflix. My younger one is obsessed w/ NCIS, I thought all the autopsy/ dead people scenes would bother her, but she doesn't mind them at all. It probably helps that she's old enough to understand it's not real. The big one loves Supernatural and Teenwolf. We usually end up watching what they like, which I don't mind. More than once I've had Moana on while I was at work.

I'm having that same problem. I went to reply to stuff and then 5 pages magically appeared.


Mine waste it. It's all over the floor hidden under the straw. They were stirring stuff up today and eating things while I was working.
I joined the fitbit group too!!!!


I LOVE Netflix!! I just finished Stranger Things. We rewatch a lot of stuff, Baby Daddy, HIMYM, Last man standing. We don't have 'real' tv.


Thank you! My nesting boxes are under my roosts, poop board w/ pdz separating them. I've made soooo many mistakes w/ this coop, I'm constantly fixing stuff. I still need put in higher dividers between the nesting boxes & I have a feeling I'm going to end up putting in another set of vents on the sides.View attachment 1179861 View attachment 1179862

That at that pretty and clean poop board too. I had a 2”x2” roost and changed it for a flat survice. I don’t know that Sesame is liking it though.

So cute! I love it! I would love to hear about the penguin cake!! I made a cake for my MIL last month and I ended up naming it the “Cover-up Cake.” I had this vision in my head and the execution wasn’t happening! I wish I would have bought a cake from the store, because I wasted an entire day!
