Morning Chaos

How goes it?

No, I'm right. You're wrong.

You usually are.........but I'll still argue about it

Got it now. His message did not come through at that point. This is weird. Anyways the way my kindergarten crush taught me the song it was Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts marinated....and me without my spoon

Going well. Haven't seen the fire damage to the plumbers yard yet. Been too busy driving up and down the Sac valley to stop in. Got to get break light fixed so maybe today

Sounds like they keep you pretty busy. Light go out or is it something more?

Just one of the gross songs I am teaching Duckling because it's funny to me. I teach her the songs, and then I will go away (do not cry. do not cry...). The rest of her life the family can blame me, and I won't be around to care!

Good Morning!

Thanks! I had read that before but I reread it. The chicks membrane was rather tan looking so I slowly assisted. Left and came back and he's out!! Also transferred the others to the brooder.

awesome! Congratulations

OMG, I had to read that twice to realize what you were talking about - that is hysterical, I can't even remember when I last shaved my legs... 

(Hey, for you guys out there, here's a secret - WE COME WITH HAIR... )

Oh, yikes!!!! Yeah, I waited longer than I should have, and my ear canal was almost swollen shut (hence the need for debridement and then placement of the ear wick), but I was very fortunate that the eardrum was ok. I did a bunch of reading about it, and:

1) I think it's the fact that it's summer (and I sweat a lot) and I do all my chicken chores with earbuds in listening to podcasts (Star Talk with Neil Degrasse Tyson, of course - might as well get smart while scooping poop). I think that's why I got it.

2) I though I was being a silly little wuss until I read about how essential pain control was and that opiates may be needed. I promptly found some left over Tylenol-with-codeine in the back of the medicine cabinet and took some. I feel SOOOOO much better!!!! (OK, so a little loopy, BUT BETTER!!! )

@daxigait
, not sure if I've said so (at least recently), but I remain so impressed with the amount of hard, hard work that you do, maintaining your property and animals while also having your pretty demanding job. 

And I don't know much, but those look like pretty happy pigs to me!!! 

I may be when I'm not drugged to the gills... 

That is what I have heard a few times from folks (backed up with small or absent/hard to find testicles when culled). Some people produce and keep capons around not just for meat but also to act as nannies for baby chicks. 

Awwwwwww.....

Sally, your birds are lovely (and I'm sorry, but ANY photo of a Serama just cracks me up - such a funny little stance).

Ukulele is awesome...

OK, so the Tylenol with codeine is kicking in and while it still hurts, I feel SO much better... But it still hurts too much to chew -  looks like soup is on the menu for the foreseeable future...

glad to hear you are feeling a little better lol

Ok so we've got two chicks! Ones gotta be a blue eng orp/speckled Sussex & the other a silver penciled rock over Dominique I think but they're identical and both look like my English orp did as a chick so lol. I just checked in there and I can see the markings on their shells now at least but also I've got 6 more pipped shells and I'm hoping that they get out tonight.. And by tonight I mean when my husbands home I'm going to hang out down there like a spaz lol. I would love up wake up to all of them hatched and fluffed honestly and get them out of there!

xx fingers crossed xx

Green grime grows on greasy grimy gopher meat.
Marinated monkey meat.
Chunks and bits of parakeet!
Three eyeballs floating in a pot of blood.
And I forgot my spoon.

Why can't I cry? Every kid should learn some gross songs.
