holy water Aquarian!

oh, I widened the Marans pen. They've now 32 feet. Itook the table out and got them a skid that holds their water feed and nest box. Caught the blue hen pecking Texas back, so she's gonna get some perty purple in the morning. I locked everyone up while I did this, so the marans got to wander the run. Boy was the roo interested in getting in with all those girls! What a strutter! Got them up on their roost so they know where to sleep. Gotta head to work soon.

DARN.....wish I was closer to her. I would buy some porcelain chicks to breed to my Lavender roo. Darn it all anyway

you know, there's always chickenstock supposing she's still breeding them! I could buy/ transport them for you! *wink, nudge* I also think the web page mentioned lav silkies too, but she didn't have chicks/ eggs yet; maybe later?

Did you guys go to the actual web page? They look to be SQ, she says they are; poufs on feet is what they are, LOL. Can't even see eyeballs on a few of them!

The drive between Allegan and Holland was eventful. Texas the hen got loose. After trying to keep her in, I gave up. She started out by just peeking out of the box, then trying to get out. At first my hand was a deterrant, then she figured out that is was not really a hinderance to her freedom. So, out she came. She sat on her box, then jumped to the back seat, **** on the roosters box, then made ...her way to the rear compartment. THEN back to the front to stand on the arm rest, then my lap to look out the window, then back to the box, then back to the back compartment, then back to my lap... AND people passing were laughing when they looked. Well I guess I would too.
Got home, brought her to the pen. Went back for the other hen, and put her in the pen. Went back for the rooster, and found the other hen and my NH fighting through the pen, both bloody beaked and nipped combs. Vicious creatures. Well, a bit of chicken wire fixed that. Set the rooster in, and HOLY COW IS HE HUGE AND TALL! This bird can reach the feed that is on a kids folding table while standing on the ground! Can you say "****!" Yeah. Jace thinks they are awesome...

Where the heck has Gigi been? Haven't seen her in some time.

OH, Beulah's eggs are hatching. They weren't supposed to hatch until Monday. Day 19.. She must be one hot mama.

Yeah, I haven't been on. My dad passed away unexpectedly last Monday. I have a hole in my heart. We were very very close. Talked on the phone at least every other day. I'm really just devastated but it's part of life. The only good thing is that he had a massive heart attack out in his garage. Probably died instantly. For that I'm thankful. But it's still very hard. I don't think I've ever had to do something so hard as plan and go to his funeral. So glad we are back home and I can set with the chicks and goats.

Sorry to be such a downer. I'll be better soon.
