Oh Phyllis, you sweet dear, Louis sends his apologies and say's you should get special house privileges today with your favorite treat. He has decided that yes, winter is almost over. He's joined the boys and all 3 are exploding, hair everywhere. The ground, stall walls, me. I'm still sneezing after loving on them yesterday. It's so nice out today, if you overlook that we are under a flash flood watch, and if you walk anywhere in the yard your up to your ankles in mud. All my chickens are happy, warm muddy yard means earthworms are everywhere, and they are having a feast.
