Me?  I sleepwalk on a regular basis.  So, I act out my nightmares....  How about you?

Oh no that sounds horrible....

Good morning Phil. Hope day is going well. Just started here.

Been another busy one here Pens.....headed out to the lake for a little while.

[COLOR=333333]I think most of my chicks are progressing at a decent rate, though I can't help but wonder if the two little ones will ever catch up. Not that it matters, since they're two of five cockerels. I have 3 pullets from each of the two families, so I should be able to come up with a minimum of a breeding pair (per family) in the spring. I'd love to get two sets of trios, or even quads for breeding, but only time will tell how many will be selected for breeding. I have a good bit of time to see how they turn out, and they'll only be 11 weeks old in 3 days, but I'm bored so I'm going to post pics anyway...[/COLOR] [COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]"Runt"...[/COLOR] [COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]Runt's cockerel cousins tower over him. It doesn't bother him, though. What he lacks in size, he makes up for in spunk. He'll take on both of them at once... [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]He's not likely to ever catch up, and I have someone asking for a "rooster" to throw in with their barnyard birds. [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]Of course, no photo session would ever be complete without C.J. (Champ, Jr.) taking a siesta on my knee...[/COLOR] [COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] [COLOR=333333]Any and all comments are welcome. I know they're young, but feel free to critique my birds... just to make sure I'm not wearing blinders and missing something. [/COLOR]

I really like the one in the first two pictures. I think their width of body all the way back is nice too. I look forward to seeing them when they are older as it is hard for me to judge them with my learning eye at this age.

All the talk of healthier eating and tomatoes made me think to share one I really like. Since pasta makes me crave tons of it I have switched to using spaghetti squash to make my spaghetti and I like it just as much without the cravings for more and more. The nice thing is you can cook it in the oven or poke it with a fork a few times and toss it in the microwave. Five minutes, turn over three or so more, cut it in half use a fork ot string/shred it out of its shell and add to the sauce. I made it yesterday with fresh portobello muchrooms in my sauce. Then either ground beef or turkey. Yummy

Here is my new cat from the shelter to keep my three year old company since I work so much. Since I have a Luna, this is Hermione (dilute torte).

@Sally SunshineI hope your son is doing better and you are getting to relax and get things done.
