Opossums are one ugly animal. I'd of shot it too. Can't believe it was just chillin there. Can't believe the chickens didn't object and were that close.

Yeah. It was very weird.

Of course, there are some ugly chickens out there... maybe they thought it was a silkie

****hee hee.... I am going to pay for that one!

and before everyone goes and gets their knickers in a twist... I was just kidding. I mean, who could say something mean about a silkie?

It's naked necks that are half bald!

Oh, my! I better go to bed and stop teasing. Y'all might make me go play on the Illinois side of the state line.

what all do i need to make an incubator out of a strofom cooler my dad gets them for free at his store

You can go to youtube.com and seach for homemade incubators and you will find all kinds. They are pretty easy to build.

This is the best one.

This one here is the simplest one to build:

So, did the chickens jump through the roof when you shot it?

I was adding a roll out nestbox to the tractor earlier today, and one of the ladies jumped back inside, didn't see her in the bottom section and I set a board to cut on the top. Proceeded to cut the board and as soon as the saw went off all hell broke loose. (I'd say "you'd think a opossum got in there", but apparently they don't mind those) she shot outta the garage so fast, scared me cause I only caught it out of the corner of my eye.

Aww! that woulda made me jump a foot

You know what is scary is when you open the nest box lid and a hen jumps right up and out at you because you scared her so bad. Tell you what i scares me to death everytime one does that. LOL
