As tiny chicks, pea vs rose is almost impossible to tell apart. Straight vs either pea or rose is pretty simple

Ah ok I see yea I looked and his is straight in his pics. He must be a barred rock!

Awww. Sansa

That wasn’t a hard one to guess!

That's wild. You replaced a chimney. What are the benefits in what you have done?

Can use the new stove. It burns hotter, and as of Jan 2022, all chimneys had to have a metal sleeve lining (ceramic tile lining would burn too). Got the stove in, discovered no sleeve. Got the sleeve in, went to slide down inside, chimney wobbled (when took down discovered it was built against the original siding rather than the flashing). Sleeve wasn't designed to be self supporting, so had to order a different sleeve. Stove was ordered a year ago, installation started end of April, tried again just before graduation in May, finally got all the pieces. Have gone 2 winters without the wood stove. The winter power bill reduction will make a large deposit into the home repair fund, and I'm happy happy happy

When a bad one strikes me the only thing that helps is a dark room and a ice pack over my eyes and one at the back of my head.

That gave me some relief. Thanks

I would think that was an easy guess.

Makes me think of Sansa though. I miss her little honk.

Excellent! Thanks for explaining. I learned something. I'm excited you get to use your new woodstove now!

When I shared the pic with family, the caption was" And the chimney came tumbling down" (

) should be last line...

Somehow I'm not sad. Just reflective right now.

It was a bit of a shock to be pecked and see someone else's little face there.
