Very cool! I believe you can do woodblock printing on T-shirts, minimal setup required. I mostly did intaglio on copper plates. We’ll see how the quail goes, I just have my first batch due to hatch this week! Kinda nervous!

Intaglio - fancy! Always wanted to see that work in person. Offset litho was my world for a long time. Might be time to do a woodblock print again - it's only been 35 years! >.> Good luck with your quail, look forward to updates! Just saw the Appalachia's Homestead YT channel move their quail to a new farm this week

Cool, my last boyfriend was6'7" and 256 lbs. Really stupid to call THAT A BOY!! his best friend called him "Lurch." BTW I was barely 5' small, standing on my toes.

My husband has been Lurch on Halloween and has a scar on his forehead from a ceiling fan He had one GF that wasn't even 5'! Meanwhile I'm dating guys barely as tall as me with a complex about it, haha. After I broke up with the last one, I said a little prayer, half in jest - "can you please send me just ONE tall one, please? hair a bonus but not essential." And then Scott appeared - 6'7", 270lbs., and more hair than me (and I look like Gilda Radner from SNL). I caught him in the brooder last night without me - I think he's starting to bond.

BTW you can post photos of your chicks at "What breed or gender is this?" The good folks there will do their best to make their determination.

I may do just that when they have a few more feathers - which is happening so fast except the one I think is a cochin. She is still all fluff (and totally adorable, even if she is my pasty butt special child).

My lurch decided to go on line and found a tall club. He met a lady golfer 6 ft. tall and never even said goodby.

But the powers that be were sorta on my side, he had to declare bankruptcy and his new bride was also bankrupt. Birds of a feather - huh!! Last I heard(from his buddy) they had moved to a trailer park in Tennessee.

Good riddance to bad rubbish, as they say? My husband's ex is super tall too, and only one of their daughters is shorter than me. Graduation from college for her was a bit awkward for me. I'm used to being the tall one in the room!

I'm used to being the smallest person anywhere except for kindergarten. But I have my uses. I can easily get things off the lower shelves in grocery stores. The tall folks in turn get the stuff down from the highest shelves for me. There is a purpose for all of us.
