That tail is spectacular. I just love when they can them out!

You don't need a Sweeter Heater, get a safe infrared panel like the Cozy Coop if you like, which goes on sale once or twice a year, besides being 1/3 the cost of a Sweeter Heater anyway. It can help raise the local temp just enough, and those that need it can snuggle up

That is what I use. Perfectly safe. It will not set anything on fire.

Yes! She eventually combined humor and classical music, she had a character Dame Illya Dillya....

Such an amazing woman.

It could be a heavy metal love song. I have yet to hear any heavy metal that actually sounds like singing.

I avoid anything heavy metal, though, so

I pretty much only enjoy classical.

With my voice? Hahaha I’d cause a riot!

Sing Metal Health by Quiet Riot

Saw a snakeskin in the garage today, 3 plus feet. Good thing about it being that long is it probably isn't venemous.

I'm going to guess, and truly it's a guess, but one based on observation, that chickens go into a trance of sorts while dustbathing, like they do with a broody trance. If so, then the physical-mental bond of doing that activity takes a few minutes to undo if it's interrupted. When they dustbathe, it seems to develop into a focus that appears so intense sometimes! I see it in their expressions, they are feeling / thinking just the physical experience, they're not really "looking" at anything.

P.S. Human pictures for tax, we are in a mirror-image world now!

So you’ve seen them go totally trance-like! I wonder what would happen if a bullied hen were in the bath and another came to peck at her… would she just avoid going into too deep of a trance so she could run away as needed?

What do you think if Phyllis’ playlist that’s being put together? Doesn’t cut it?
