Wicki... you gotta post a bigger pic of your avatar...

My Avatar is Fred my Silver Ameraucana. He takes wonderful care of my girls. So far he fought a hawk and the neighbors cat! The lady next to him is my favorite hen, Bri. She and her sister lays the biggest bluest eggs of all my hens! They even come to my door, and call for me to bring out treats. They have me trained well.

Well, I just had 2 very nice couples come to my house for no reason. LOL. OK, here is the reason. One of the ladies, Marianne, just had to see my chickens. Especially Roger. Then she saw the rest, and THEN she saw the ducks! My flock will soon be famous on FB. LOL. This may sound conceited, but I am not really trying to be, BUT, this is not the first time that people have stopped to check out my chicken and take pictures of my chickens. How funny is that? So, I also now have 2 new duck egg customers as well as chicken egg customers. YEAH! And all it took was seeing my fat happy chickenses. LOL

Mr. Fluffers has injured his spur AGAIN. I noticed his foot looked more pink than it has been... His spur is gone, and its bleeding, but not as bad as it was the first time. I think the idiot did it while he was getting happy on Veena. She has blood on her back. On the feathers on her back I should say.

BOY I can not wait for spring break my brain to be over! My house is beyond trashed. Its a mess that is not normal for me. I am going to have to spend my day tomorrow trying to make it look like people who clean live here. I will be happy when Jace goes back to school and isn't bored out of his mind while I am at work. Last night either he or his brother decided that the TV screen needed some added color. Yeah. I don't know if it was crayon or marker... I think marker. Thank God I am smart enough to not buy sharpies. I'd be having lamb for dinner then. Not really, just saying I was steaming.

Olive... you crack me up.

I had ordered water nipples last fall for my automatic waterer pipe line, but when I was making a nipple waterer out out of a Milk jug last week, I found that I had ordered a wrong kind of nipple! I had gotten a push in type, not a screw in type! How in the world am I suppose to install a push in nipple in a 1/2 inch pipe running 140 feet! So, instead of a milk jug waterer, I used an ice cream bucket waterer for my CX. But, I do not need 20 plus push in nipples. What I can do is make 5 gallon nipple waterers, and sell them. I am willing to make some, and take them to Chickenstock to sell. I love how dry the bedding stays, and the chicks always get clean water 100 percent of the time. No more cleaning out the bedding out of the chick's water!

Please pm me if intrerested.

He is beautiful! He reminds me of my Mr. Fluffers minus the fluffy legs and the salmon. Your hen is very pretty too.

I use to have an EE that look just like your hen! She always lay huge light green egg, and her name was Kiwi. How broody are your Ameraucanas? I might want some of those eggs to hatch for myself. Hillbilly Hen- Sorry about your hen.

Oh and the crazy neighbor is acting out again. Today is trash day and she put her garbage out in front of my house. Like right in the middle of front yard. Is that supposed to mean something?

Now that is VERY odd. WE have a neighbour who does a very similar thing. If we don't take the bin in AS SOON as the trash truck goes, he comes out and sticks it right in the middle or our driveway. In the winter, it's a bit of a hazard if I forget to bring it in, because it gets dark and hubby almost mashes it when he turns into the driveway. Weird thing is, this neighbour lives over 1/4 mile away on another street, although his back yard backs up to our road.

Managed to push and shove the "new" coop into place beside the original coop. Still need to replace that one board, replace the roof and floor, replace the wall and put in windows...build a run...make doors so chickens can access the runs...reattach the door...oh man...

the original coop needs a paint job and a once over...((sigh)) they are getting back into shape a little at a time.

You're kidding! That is just crazy!

I personally have THE BEST neighbors!
