So, I know I've mentioned that the chooks like eating green pine needles (they have stripped the lower branches of them on the pine tree in their run - the ones that hang close to the fence, so they can reach them.


Well, as I previously mentioned, had 2 large branches fall on the run roof in the last wind-storm. Hauled the smaller of the 2 off the run roof and put it where the chooks could hop in it, munch on the needles, etc. This was done Saturday afternoon while they were free ranging. This is what it looks like now:

For perspective: it is about 18' long:

Hi! Can I join the thread?
I read through two hundred-and-six pages before realizing there was a primer.

Of course you can. Tell us about you chooks.

Ooohhh, very pretty lady. However.....seems you have to watch that one - she'll be on Beakbook in no time if you aren't careful!



Is she a Jubilee Orpington, or a speckled Sussex?

Hi Marie!

It is very nice to be 'seeing' you a bit more on here, @Mary Janet - it has been quite a longtime since you have been here more than just a quick drop in. I like to hear your input on all things tech. (well, not really because it kinda scares me, but your wisdom is good!), and it has been a while since we have had pro per pics of all your girls and run

It was not meant to be funny. It's based on a question asked to regular folk on a game show.

Measure is right. Want to try for the other?

Angle?

Was Angle already guessed?
Amoeba? No, that would be a biologist instead of geometry teacher.
