Good Afternoon everyone, coffee has been over for some time. It is Lunch time already.

I need to do the DEED today! Mr. Peep is getting worse. I can not stand watching him suffer any longer. This is going to be really hard. It will be quick. I gave him some warm rice for breakfast. He didn't ever open his eyes. Later I went back and he had gotten out of the nest and had eaten about 1/2 of the rice. He could not even stand up. That was enough for me. I guess he just fell out.

Hope everyone stays warm.

Karl, did you get your Deer yet? My area got quite a bit of rain and a wind storm, combined. Dropped down to freezing. I'm glad I put the heat lamp back in the baby kids coop. They were as snug as a bug in a rug.

Got my H1N1 shot day before yesterday. I had the regular flu shot as soon as they were out.

Tonopah - I'm glad you got the H1N1 shot. I have been laid up with H1N1 for over a week and see no end in sight. It seems to be a flu that drags on forever. If it weren't for my chickens, I would never get out of bed. But the days are getting light now, albeit six or eight seconds a day, so spring will come.

Happy Holidays Everyone!

While I did take 7 deer this year not one of them looked like they might be used to wearing harness so I'm sure Santa will be able to haul everyone's presents. Merry Christmas all

Good morning from Arizona. Boy oh boy it got down to freezing last night. I'm glad I put the heat light back in the Baby's coop.

Kismet, I am sorry to here that you have that nasty H1N1. The first time I tried to get the shot, I was told I did not meet the criteria. When i went to pick up my script at Walgreens, They were giving the shot and only had 3 doses left. I got the shot right then. I am so glad I did. I have been really worried about not having the shot. I hope you get well soon.

Well, Mr. Peep has gone to Chicken Heaven. I choose not to eat him. I didn't think it would bother me as it has. He was my first baby Chicken. His mother got killed when he was 2 days old. I hand raised him for a couple of weeks in a tote in my Bed room. I would take him outside every day. I made a little pen around a Hutch. I brought him in the house each night. it was in Jan. last year. It was pretty cold. The little guy would run to me when he saw me. I would put my hand down and he would come and set down in my hand. When he got bigger I could call his name and he would come. He was pretty tame until he grew up. He then did his Rooster stuff. I shall miss him.

RIP Mr. Peep

Merry Christmas everyone. Have a fun and safe holiday. God Bless
