Oh I hate that!

You should see the blunders I make what with my mistakes then the spellchecker I look like a right old fool

The chicken bill is older (and in Hawaii) Light is reading through the thread.

I remember that section

What a lovely tribute. I am in tears. She was beautiful.

Did you see her rooster what a beauty

Morning Alex you're up early!

Ok well better get chores done, today is a holiday here, Emancipation Day (the abolishment of slavery in the United Kingdom which includes Canada); I might pop over to Duntroon to see that Polish Roo later

Went to Kathy's house yesterday and did some work. New circuit breaker in her main panel, rewired her dryer receptacle, cleaned out old cabling from past providers, and trimmed the trees in her front yard. I find it very rewarding to work alongside my daughter. She's smart and does her own repairs. Highlight of my day was dinner with both kids and my granddaughter. Anna was a little cranky in the pic below but I had her smiling later as we conspired to have her mom bring her to my house more often. Of course I promise to cook her favorite foods, playtime with the animals and fishing. View attachment 3207400

Hello Anna

Warning rant approaching:
Some people never change (but need to) as I stated earlier, they stay up late playing scrabble. Well, Bill had too many beers last night. My cousin was embarrassed by his actions. I felt like a third wheel and said I need to rest. So I went to the spare room. Bill isn’t the violent type, he’s just a little stupid. All I can really do, is wish them well. I’m leaving for home earlier than expected today. My brother isn’t home in Seattle. He’s still on the yacht with his wife and puppy dogs. (Must be nice to take a month long vacation)!
Rant over. Tax forthcoming.

Get the Roo! He needs love too!

I wish you wouldn't take so many risks

I had no passengers. Only myself (earning flight hours) I’m very careful with flying (usually, but I have my moments) and I’m fine! So is the SkyHawk. Relax Marie!

I don't know how you do it with multiple Roos! The ones I had here were drama !!

The other worry is more drama for the gals, I think one roo would be ok, drama wise.

1 older roo, help raise the younger....problem, keep losing older roo.

Roo history:

Buster: Silver laced wyandotte, raised with Silver, killed/taken by fox family just before big/late snow storm. Put up a fight as feathers were everywhere. (2 years old)

Rusty: poorly colored Jersey Giant (beautiful boy, in profile pic), raised with Pear, killed by marauding dog, again kicked up fight. (10 months old when Buster killed, 13 months when killed) (brother Raven rehomed a month before Buster killed, currently king of his tribe, defended against dog (different dog) attack long enough for owners to get out there and remove dog, backed up by juveniles:new Hampshire (now has own tribe) and 2 polish, still there)

Cheetah, raised with rest of adult girls, 13 weeks old when Rusty killed, currently 14 months old. (If he makes it through next summer, we should be doing well)

Hector, Horus (son of Cheetah and Nellie), Whiskey, Kren (W&K sons of 3/4 year old roo and hens from MIL tribe so hopeully inheirited some of the survival wisdom): junior roos hopefully learning how to be good boys, currently going through the "randy idiot" phase, ages 20 weeks and 12 weeks.
