So Christmas 2020 is winding down. Food was good here. Day was quiet. It never warmed up so I was ferrying hot oatmeal and water out to the spoiled brats in the coop, who repaid my devotion by giving me 3 fresh eggs for breakfast tomorrow.

I'm back on my low inflammation diet tomorrow so I'm seeing how much junk food I can cram in my face today. I have to admit I'm not going to miss the sweets. I told my husband that I've been away from them for so long that they have made me a bit queasy but I keep on eating them, LOL. Don't know why I felt compelled to gorge myself on them this year. Maybe overcompensating for the self isolation all year.

I've been looking for more potential Fayoumi chicks but the hatcheries prices are outrageous this year. No way I am paying 80 to 100 dollars for 6 sexed Fayoumi chicks and 6 straight run OEGBs. DH told me that I may have to face the reality of penning Tut and the 4 girls up by themselves for a month and hatching my own from their eggs.

Oh, why not. I like roosters, which is what I always seem to hatch when I use the old trusty Brinsea.

Esp if they are nice roosters.

Your fish are beautiful.

Well it sounds good.

It is good.

I'm pretty lucky that way. Most of my boys are pretty nice roosters. I have one or two that are turds but they are removed from the breeding pool and slam dunked into the bachelor pen where the nice boys don't take any nonsense off of them. They soon learn to not only stay out of the nice roosters' way but mine also. None of them like to be dangled by their heels.

I've known people who have the Silver Duck Wing OEGB roosters like I have and they are just plain nasty little birds. I suspect they tease them because mine are all doll babies. They fly over to greet me, roost on my shoulders, dance till I scratch their backs for them and talk to me. I never tease them, though. People who do sow what they reap.
