My chickens beak again (pics!)

I'm actually just outside of Orlando. So we're not really too far apart. Sorry about your chicken's beak. I would have to agree with the others, they are awfully cute.

Lol, not really. I do live in FL, off of a preservation that is pretty much a cypress marsh. It sure feels like a swamp at times though. My location started as a joke a few years back on a different forum.

That's too funny. I'm directly across from the green swamp in Central Florida. This is my swamp coop when it was under construction. If you enlarge it, you'll see just how swampy it is in the background. It was a particularly gloomy day so it's not always that dark.

That looks awfully familiar! Lol.
This is the back of our property. There's standing water year round.

We're trying to acquire the a lot next to us. It's undeveloped, and in the floodplain so it's value it's not very much. However we have 22 ducks, and the fact that two-thirds of it is under water, is rather valuable to me.

Everyone, I just looked at the poll, and 2 people voted NO, a 1 person YES.

Now I'm feeling the need to get some pretty birds I love my mutts, but their not much to look at.

I'm sure their lovely, but yes, BO are REALLY pretty....if you care for them the right way, that is.

Thank you. I think she is still doing ok. I'll need to check.

@Hobbits Mommie and @Trimurtisan. Just wanted to let you know in a friendly way that what you are saying about swamps and all is a little off topic for this thread.

Oh you're right, it's very off topic. I actually thought you were who I was talking to, sorry about that.

I just read a great novel that beautifully explains the difference between marsh and swamp. "Where the Crawdads Sing".

Thanks for the awesome tip! I just ordered it. If you like that type of reading (especially about the NC coastal islands, take a look at author Dorthea Benton. I've read every book she's ever written. They are romantic novels, but like like Where Crawdads Sing, so much of it is about the history and landscape of the islands.

Sorry!!! I couldn't help myself. Please forgive me.
