That is a good idea taking the biggest bully out. Life before chickens was so easy and boring,

Sounds like life here in the 'burbs.

Since I re-homed the laying hens, it is dull as dish-water here. No eggs to collect. No egg song to hear.
Boring to the nth degree.

Today my hubby asked me how many chickens do you have I said after some thought I don't know,

The answer is 3.
Mine, yours and ours.

Chicken math.

Ahhhhhh I am so sorry Randy, what ever happened when people liked animals? Use them for what they were intended for to eat, eggs etc.....

Spiders freak me out a LOT!

Can I forward this to some people from college who might be able to identify it?

That would be great. I was going to look it up in my spider book, but not sure if I will find it. It was the biggest dang jumping spider I have ever seen! Here is a booty shot - notice the eyes on the back of the head in addition to the ones in front, creepy!

I'm at that point also but I did re home two roosters today. My sweet showgirl roo went to a good home with showgirl hens and I get some hatching eggs in August, a great deal!

I forwarded the spider pics to friends at EMU. We have a prof there who is an expert. Hopefully we can get an ID.

Randy - if you miss the chicken and duck poop you can always come visit. Shovel as much as you want and take it home. You can take some horse poo, too - fresh out of the chute! Make sure you put it close to your 'fun' neighbors fenceline,

I just realized that I set me cochin eggs so they will start hatching Friday night through Chickenstock grrr. Oh well, it is probably better that I am not there fussing while they hatch.

I went to the Rockford Start of Summer Festival today, parade, rides, games and the whole shebang. I took this cool photo I had to share. My husband kept shoving me closer to the spider and I wanted to smack him. Spiders freak me out a little...

Hope you have a good hatch. The spider picture is very good, but somehow it doesn't make me like them anymore.

It's not the poo that I miss. But i can turn that into a cash crop in short order.
