MJ's little flock

[MaryJanet]

This is deep into Tribe 1's territory. At the back of the picture where the trees start is a slope and it's pretty treacherous. Somewhere down that slope on the right is one of the coolest spots during the summer months and that's where one can often find the whole tribe. I think two of the hens have nests down there so that might be tomorrows mission; find the nests.

It's very steep with quite dense bushes. Brilliant for chickens! I hope you find the nests sooner than you expect.

You are indeed most fortunate. There are just some days that are perfect. It sounds like you just had one.

It was a golden evening. One to recall in my dying moments.

Here are a few more pictures of Stanley and the kids. I'm still just so proud of him!!

He's wonderful. How did you come by such a gentle rooster?

 

[MaryJanet]

From what Shad once said, Stanley would be a great rooster for educating young cockerels.

Good morning MJ

Hello it was delightful. Tonight I'm going to add a gin and tonic and a book to the setting.

That indeed sounds perfect I'm thinking about something refreshing and maybe get back into my adult coloring books again. I'm hoping to relax enough to get a good night's sleep for a change.

I loved all these pics Stanley is a great rooster. I love that the school is also engaged.

Another wonderful evening. What a great stress reliever. Good morning MJ have a great day. btw, you brought back memories of my early days as an Air Force Officer... It was tradition for the senior guys to drink the new guys under the table (this was a long time ago). I cheated... I'd show up early and pay the bar tender $20 and tell him I'd give him a signal when to switch and my drink of choice was gin and tonic... Once signal given, he continued to charge for the gin (others aka extra tip), but provided just tonic. As a young LT I was always the last guy standing, until my boss changed the rules. Then I was just toast.

He did you proud didn't he.

Shear luck, I guess. Anna chose the Barred Rocks herself and we just constantly handle our chickens. I honestly think they pick up how laid back and drama free we our. I don't yell at them, I've never hit them, the other animals have never threatened them.

Yes he did! I can't wait to see what his offspring is like.

I hope you do too! You'll be so much better off the next day.
