Ok, I’m off now. (Not that I wasn’t off before) C- Ya peeps

Just don't let your ego write any checks your body can't cash.

I so forgot that line.

The limp sounds like an injury, but are you sure you're not seeing a beard on the chest? It hangs as you describe...Just wondering.

No, I’m not sure. I hope that’s all it is.

Guess what? Dorothy laid an egg with a shell today! I have not been giving her extra calcium... but she just finished a 14-day course of enrofloxacin per avian Vet’s suggestion.

Broody Update

For everyone who was excited to see Phyllis hatch (count me in this group), I have bad news. She gave up the nest.

I guess she decided it was not a much fun as she thought it would be. She has been off all day and it's 3 pm. Besides a fashion plate like Phyllis can't be weighed down with children.

I must admit, I'm kind of disappointed. I think she would would have cut a fabulous figure with chicks. Alas it is not to be.

She out again unencumbered by children.

Tegan showed signs of broodiness for four days before giving it up as a bad job.

Pikachu. She has hidden talents.

I, for one, am astounded you know who Pikachu is!

What is a scrub Jay?

It’s a blue colored bird. Actually, I think it is crested, so it would is probably actually a blue jay.
