Its pouring rain. And I spoke too soon about getting better unless peeing yourself means better.

I wonder if you have what I have. I'm better now, but with flare ups it's pretty painful. Interstitial Cystitis.

Keeping one RIR pet hen. Must buy some diapers for her as she is so special to us that I would like for her to be an indoor pet when I can't set with here out in the grass and watch over her. She loves to be held and talked to. She will be a year old in Sept. We've lost 4 pet hens this week to an unknown predator. All were roosting on a porch with lighting and had been doing so for months with no trouble. Racoon, bobcat, ?. Don't know what got them. Only the rooster and 2 hens left out of that bunch. Our Rosie girl has a box she stays in when not being held in the house now. Not going to lose that girl if humanly possible.

I always loved my Leghorns. They would sneak in..only for a short time. I didn't let them stay. Wow, predators killing that quickly. I don't blame you for bringing it in.

I found chicken diapers on Walmart's website. I'm sure it we buy one that my crafty wife with a sewing machine can make plenty more. These are washable and really look cute but I'm sure my pet won't like them at all.

By the way it was 70° when I got up. As soon as the help shows up I'm out of here for a few hours. Got to finish up a coop. Need to separate some White Giants and Dark Cornish as they are getting ready to lay soon and I want to be able to hatch pure from each of them if possible. I want to keep a small pen of breeders from those.

I know some of you guys know through Facebook, it’s just been so hard for me to make this post.

We had an accident on the trail on Saturday. We rolled…and then rolled about 100 ft down Cadillac hill on the rubicon. Jesse and I were able to walk away with bruises. I don’t know how. If Jesse hadn’t built that truck as well as he did…it would be a different story. Goose didn’t make it. It was quick for him at least, I don’t think I could live with myself if it wasn’t.

My heart and soul…I just feel so broken right now. I didn’t want to do this trip to begin with, too broke, work was too busy, I was worried about how goose would do in the truck…(he was actually riding like a champ until this happened) but I didn’t feel like I had any friends I could trust with him.

I don’t know how much I’m going to be able to handle peopleing for a while…so if I go silent just know I love y’all. And give your fur babies some extra belly rubs from me.

I think I've got a challenge to take on. My pet hen jumped up in my lap the other night and onto the keyboard. Her typing is awful. No sure she can learn to type. She did try. She can't try that again until she has some chicken Depends on.

So sorry for your loss of Goose. I know the sorrow for losing a loved member of a family from the non human realm.
