Getting the flock out of here - a diary of a crazy chicken man

[katbriar]

I just had a white missionary merkan appear at the farm saying he knows me and he is here for a tour. My wife, contacted me and bollocked me out for not telling her. She let him in.

His definition of know - he sent me three messages on facebook. A friend request sent Christmas day that I did not answer because of the internet and my general apathy for facebook. Then he sent 2 messages while I was flying to LA saying he was going to be in the area and wanted to come by. 

I sent him a message


 

i wanted to say more. Mrs Oz threw him out as soon as she got my message

Geesh- as presumptuous as he was with you and in his lack of manners towards MrsOz, it makes me wonder how he treats those he ministers. I'm guessing he's better at preaching then serving.

eta- Sorry, posted this before I read your "I need to change the subject" post!

I really dont have a lot of extra eggs yet but I reckon we can sell a couple of dozen each weekend as the "brown egg buying demographic" crowd drive past on their way to the resorts south of us.

Cage eggs sell for $2 per doz in the Philippines.

I will set my price at $3

I thought of that. I have two mixed bird coops. I will pull the roos out of one of them

The keeper piglets are being tagged so they don't get sold by mistake

Love seeing the pics

We should have lots of legbar eggs by then (barring disasters).
