Twisties come in a packet like crisps/chips and they're yellow and bumpy. I'll find a picture or two.

I prefer twisties to crisps.

There's been an effort to broaden the options at easter with easter bilby.

They need to change their chocolate options. I don't like milk chocolate.

I hope My Beetov-Hen likes Simon and Garfunkel, cause that's what I'm listening to, as she lays here with me on my bed! (specially made poop cover for that reason) Yes darn it, I was lonely, and I now can't think any better company than her. She's a good hen, (Sometimes)

quokkas don't plot. I'm pretty sure they don't plot.

Anyway, here's a bilby

Listen. I have been online all afternoon looking here, within a 50 mile radius (That's 80.5 kilometers to you Aussies) for replacement hens, and can find NONE! (None worth buying anyways)

I'm so sorry Alex. I guess 100 miles is next.

Roosting Arrangements

The flock keeps shifting around from night to night inside the coop. When I got home tonight, only three were “upstairs.” Bridge was up top on a 5-foot roost all by herself. I’m thinking she probably kicked Cashew out of the spot at the far end. Ruby and Little Mill were is their usual spot on the other roost in the “upstairs” part of the coop. So that means the remaining TEN were in the main coop! I was glad to see Cashew back in her former corner. I’m not sure exactly how everyone was arranged, as the higher ranked hens start pecking at the lowers if I light it up too much. I think the two 45° corner roosts each had a bird and the remaining eight were divided up 3 and 5 on two more 5-foot roosts.

I am also happy to report the littles are fully integrated and accepted. They are reminded of their place, but don’t seem to get chased too much anymore. My heart is warm!

No, your Twisties! They really do love Twisties, I'm sorry to say.

And a twisty is........
