Thanks, un-named. I got the sun you sent.
Wish I could let the chickens out to free range, but spotted 4 hawks flying about. Think I'll go out and baby sit so they can enjoy this weather some.

I have found a gold mine!

Not that it does me any good however..

I have been outside fixing up the yard. Got Spring fever real bad, and have had a hard time reminding myself its only the beginning of February- still tons of snow to come.

I started to push a haybale closer to the coop- I have them stacked all around the outside, and this particular bale was somewhat kittycornered instead of straight- on the outside corner of the coop..and I happened to see the top of one of my polish, down between the bales, so I left it alone. Once she left, i checked the spot-

SEVENTEEN EGGS IN THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I threw them all out- no telling how old they were, and they are all Polish- so I guess they are all from her. However, I now know where to check for eggs. Goofy bird- go outside the coop, outside the lean-to, up a mountain then drop down to lay your eggs.

I also saw TWO flies out there flying around. In February. Strange strange weather we have had.

I was out in the lean-to next to the coop..looking for eggs, gathering misc. trash, etc. Most of my girls were out in the yard, I had two for company- one sitting on the nest.
Suddenly, I heard gravel hitting the roof- as if something was sliding down the house roof. Spooked my girls inside- everything squawking and flappibng willynilly scattering everywhere.
I figured a hawk had just swooped down and snatched my pigeon, or one of the chickens.

Came out from under the lean-to to discover....no, not a hawk. One of my fruitloop Polish had flown up onto the roof, and slid down. Scared the whole group, and itself.

goofy fruitloops.

Well OK, you can send it back now. can't seem to get some of the smilies to show up.

Never mind... I typed it 3 times and am afraid we'll be shut down. The sun is out here at least. Chickflick must have sent it back.
Does anybody else think of Almonzo Wilder when you see Farmboy's name?
Farmboy, I think you're awesome by the way.

I think I will 'follow' one of you to see what happens......
Maybe Raz or Opa. Minnesota is a long way to drive to you to stalk though.....

Somehow I ended up following Chickmate and Yorkchick...

they are pretty sneaky though, and end up losing me quite a bit..

No, can't say I have. I do, however, keep picturing him as a young teenager...
