All my plans have been laid to waste; Fat Bird has decided to sit.:he
I try terribly hard not to have favorites but Fat Bird has a place in my heart and I can't refuse her.
She's done this four years in a row now. She breaks most of the eggs and because she has been 'reluctant' to mate since the death of her man, Major, the likelihood of any of her eggs being fertile is slim.
She's nine years old now and has never sat and hatched while all the other hens in her tribe have.:(

So you're going to give her a small clutch of someone else's fertile eggs?
 
Show of hands: how many of you have played "Beat the Thunderstorm" on your lawn tractor?? Well, I did and I WON! I was nearly doing donuts out there. I got wet but not that bad. It started getting dicey when the lighting was coming down but it wasn't near me and by the time it was striking closer, I was tucked back in the house safe and snug.
Take THAT Mother Nature!!

I’ve played beat the thunderstorm a couple times recently with racing to or from my car. The first time was into the mall and the storm hadn’t really started yet thankfully but had just started raining and some booms. Second time was to my car from the mall in. A big empty parking lot next to lots of street lights aka tall metal poles and the storm was already in full force, lighting up the sky and everything. It took me a while to work up my courage to go out there. Like at least 15 minutes, probably closer to a half an hour. But the mall was closing/already closed and I didn’t want to be stuck in there and the storm was only getting worse so finally I just decided to book it and made it perfectly fine. But man that was scary lol ran as fast as my legs would carry me :lau and then was fumbling to get the door open. I had thankfully thought to unlock it from inside the mall/doorway so that it was open when I got there but of course in the middle of a storm it couldn’t open fast enough LOL it was that huge tropical like weather we had recently with the huge downpours and the tropical light up the whole sky kind of lightning we never usually have. I sat in my car a while after and waited for the rain to die down some but it really wasn’t so I finally left. I mean, it had died down a little bit, but still coming down pretty hard. But before that it was REALLY coming down. But I just wanted to get home. Probably not the safest or smartest thing in the world cause it was practically right over the mall but I made it lol
