BYC Café

Good morning Cafe. Coffee is ready.
This will be the first day this year I don't make a fire in the stove. We are heading to the upper 70s today with sunshine.

My arm is pretty sore this morning but that is the only side effect.

Have a great day everyone.

My best picture of Fuji. She was 7.5 years old here.

What a great personality display of a beautiful little girl!

I hope you can take comfort in knowing that she had the best life with you and she knew it.

Good morning Cafe. Cool wet weather again today. It's in the mid 40's so not to bad. Thanks for the coffee DL and glad you had no bad reactions.

Morning and thanks for the coffee. It is going to be sunny after a dusting of snow last night. I pushed a bobcat off the property yesterday and made sure it went off over the hill but I am sure it will be back stalking the wild rabbits that we have. I guess I will be keeping my kitty in for a few! Enjoy the day, Cafe!

We have our chicks finally showing up today. The mail lady called and asked if we wanted her to bring them. Good thing she owns chickens and has bought some eggs from us when she couldn't supply enough for her regulars.

They can cover a pretty big spread. We had one last year kill a bunch of chickens. Hence todays order. I seen one in the drive way camera in Jan so I tried to trap it in the back yard. I caught it on the game camera but that was it. I've never actually seen it in person, so if you did it's probably around a lot.

With the snow cover, they are pretty easy to track. This one seems to stay away from the electric fence, so for right now, it is good. We have one hanging in the shed from 6 years ago that did some damage getting trapped in the coop! It was starving though and probably was very desperate.

I did some trapping research in Feb, to bad that's also the end of trapping season. Next winter I'm going to go hard core. We had our big RIR roo took out of the yard at the side walk in front of the house at 7ish in the morning. After DW let the chickens out she brought the dogs in to feed them then and that is when swooped in.

Good morning, Cafe. Thanks for the coffee!

Happy to hear there's been minimal reaction with the shot. DL. Hopefully much of the same on the second round.

Glad you got the bobcat chased off, Margie! Maybe he was just passing through this time. Fingers crossed your presence is enough to keep him from coming back for the bunnies
