Peanut's poop from the day before yesterday, a perfect looking poop, isn't it?

CB, it’s good looking healthy poop. My prayers are answered. I’m a Peanut fan!
I can’t wait until I get to see my feathered family again. Just a few hours flight time.

26°f this morning well after sun-up. The sun is shining though so should warm up into the low 50s today.

Let's just say my dad could be a enabler and he does not even realize it. He got to talking about quail. Why when I loved my chickens so much was I not up in arms over building a enclosure and having a few quails. He has no clue what he has started. Quail have been on my mind for a good year now. I have just not pushed the issue that I need them. I think he want's quail and has put the idea in my head as he tried a few quail eggs a few weeks back at his brothers and loved them. I now have a new project for when I'm recouping from surgery next month. I shall pass my time researching everything I need to know about quail. I also already have the materials needed and the spot available for a small enclosure to house about 5 or 6.

The eggs maybe small but they sure are beautiful! Sounds like a fun project and something to focus on as you heal up.

5 or 6? Where does that idea come from? They are tiny, I would think 15-16 would be more the sort of thing.

I'm thinking 5 or 6 to see if quail work for me. I will not need a huge enclosure, but it will be bigger then what they would need if I wanted to add more. I hesitate because so far from what I've read they cannot be fully tamed. That worries me just a bit.

 

[Grandma The Chicken]

This morning was about 33 F and yes, I did have Grandma go inside again. This time, if I walked away, she would start crying even though there was someone in the kitchen there with them. I had to keep telling Grandma, "Stop crying". She did this twice and eventually stopped. Right now is a mere 45 F and cloudy, but it's not snowy and it's not that rainy but there a few light drops, but I'm not outside right now. Also, should I stop making these weather posts? I don't want to be an obnoxion to certain people. I don't want people to say "No one cares about the weather in PA" and I really don't want that to happen so this is just an honest opinion to all of you.

I’m sad to say this, but I’m headed home. All James wanted from me was a $ loan and his wife came on to me . I’m trying to keep this post G rated. I’m so disappointed with James. I did leave a check for 500$ in the mail box. I won’t be back here again!

I am so terribly sorry.

There is nothing so lovely as a perfect poo sometimes.
