Good afternoon Cafe!
I actually got out of work on time today and the sun was shining so I decided to bring the dogs down for a quick run. But before I left I booted Kerrie off her nest so she could stretch her legs and get something to eat. I left the door open to the maternity ward.
Walking down in the fields I started to worry that she's maybe not back on the nest.
So I open up the camera app and this is what I find...

Big Daddy checking on his future progeny!

Well done Fabio. It seems to be important for the hens here that their rooster comes by to check on them. Quite a few call for their rooster when they get off the nest for food etc.
For all his bad attitude that's the sort of behaviour I look for in a good rooster.

So on March 13 I got my temporary 'new' teeth. Supposed to live with them ten days to two weeks. Well, we are coming up on the 6 week mark because of the state shutdown. Early on the temporary crown broke, and just today part of a temporary veneer came off. If everything bites the bullet, trust me, I will be a snaggle toothed monster. I got a look at myself before he affixed the temporaries . I could go and get the permanent teeth on an emergency basis, but ----------------------------

I'm in a similar position.

Meanwhile wondering why my dental insurance can't give me some kind of rebate. I'll be due for renewal next month. I had ONE dentist appt & work done - on same day as renewal. But I have to make monthly payments to keep the insurance. Dentist is only open for emergencies. Thank goodness I don't have any but still alot of $$$$$ down the drain.

Insurance = legalized extortion.
It's a particularly unpleasant practice over health matters.

And this is exactly why I keep him. His bad attitude is strictly for me. I can deal with that. He is a very good boy with his hens, his chicks and keeping the males in line.

Good morning, Cafe. Thanks for the coffee.
I'll be heading down to the fields shortly to get a run on the dogs before the SNOW starts!

I think it can be a fair exchange but it depends on the situation. Considering I paid $300 per month and my husband has had multiple surgeries, insurance was the cheaper option. Over 16 years I paid $57k for it, less than one of the surgeries by far. If you don't need it then it might be a different story.
