EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

[BantyChooks]

Oh good grief. 

Actually yes, temporarily - went to medical school at Hopkins, so for the first year I lived right there in the dorm. Gunfire at night and everything. Rented apartments after that and then a house in the end - my last year I lived in a house one block from Pimlico - VERY cool!

Somehow, I am thinking the gunfire wasn't for deer hunting like it always is around here. :/

Wife says she doesn't want to be a surrogate hen again.

That sounds like living there would an existence, not a life...

I'd go mad living in places 1/3 that terrible.

Sad really.

You've got that right.

Makes me thank the Lord more each day for the privilege of living rural.

Just talking with neighbors as to what a sheltered life we have. Sure things go wrong but nothing like that.

Don't have to worry if tomorrow's going to be the day your psycho neighbours shoot you....
