Well. I've got a story to tell. A sad one.

I'm working tonight, so instead of visiting my parents I dropped the Milk drinker off at their house so I can work in peace. As I was coming back from my parents' house, which is next door, I heard one on my roosters giving an alarm call, repeatedly. I looked with my headlamp, but didn't see anything. So I sent DH and my FIL out to take a look. I was really worried because one of our coops was damaged and the bottom wasn't completely secure. They went out and found an opossum gnawing on one of my Black Cochin/Dominique cockerels. The opossum had dragged the cockerel out from under the coop through the opening I was worried about. It took them about 15 min of chasing the critter back and forth, but they finally made sure that it wouldn't kill anymore chickens.

Tomorrow, I need to help my FIL with fixing up the coop to make it properly predator proof and do a census of the chickens.

I feel really bad about this, we intend to fix the coop over the weekend, but it was just too cold and messy. What really sucks is that we picked up the supplies to fix it today.

Is it just me or are the squatch watchers a bit cursed at the moment.

Interesting that actually sounds good. I've never used coconut flour is it good and is it really comparable to wheat flour

It IS good, but reacts nothing like wheat flour... it does impart a mild coconutty flavor to SOME recipes......, and I would only use it in sweet baked recipes. I use almond flour for savory things, like pot pie crusts and breads and such
 
I was out taking pics of the girls earlier and I'm so happy about how well my lavender Ameraucanas look after the molt they look so good
