I got this from my library on Tuesday. It's pretty good, but I've just read the part concerning chickens so far.

You don't get in trouble for putting a glass of tea down on a counter.

But set one on a piano and watch the scolding FLY!

Who has time to read an actual book???? Naw, I do actually read, but it's been spring clean up this week, even if it's back to freezing today.

I read during lunch time at work, and when DH insists on me being in the same room even when he's watching something tediously boring. usually a home improvement show

I don't care what Norm builds, he has tools out the wazoo that DH doesn't have. What's the point, really, in watching him build a tongue-and-groove 4 drawer cabinet when you don't have a whizbang groovy tool?

( not your norm, beaner. some ne dude that's been on tv for frever)

Norm abrams of this old house, right? Or something like that.

I find those shows ridic too. I build simple functional and cheap stuff. Not fancy schmancy adirondack chairs......

I don't read much at all. I like the interactive stuff like the interwebz....

I read on the interwebz. Then I reply. Best of both worlds.

So. What would you do if you got a box that was semi-crushed but the eggs were well-packaged and none broke. The shipper didn't offer to replace any, and you had a horrible hatch where only 4 of 26 eggs hatched, and 2 of those 4 were genetically wrong?
One, the buff silkie I really wanted badly, has fused extra toes.
Another has pink legs, skin & pink beak (should always be black).

I did get one partridge chick and one partridge showgirl (I had requested no partridges, since she took requests).....

Would you complain or drop it and chalk it up to lesson learned?
