Official Squatch Watchers

Ok, i'm in an alternate reality gotta be.
Derps turned in early, it started raining fine with me.
I do the normal shuffling and fussing counting heads, eyes and toes. Everyone there and intact then I see what tells me i'm not in Kansas anymore.
Hobo and Negan not on opposite ends of the roost but scrunched up...snuggling.
Wonder if I can fly or read minds in this reality?

HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!

OMG in my alternate reality I would get some lame power like every time I try to go anywhere a traffic jam would form around me. Oh the entire rest of the HWY would be completely clear though.

Hi buds, just got home and I was short a chicken when I went to tuck them in....

And a predator got my EE, Maya. I don't know how she got outside the run. I hope I didn't miss her on a head count, but she was outside the run, dead, in a big pile of feathers. I feel terrible (although she was NOT one of my favorite chickens, and did not ever seem like she liked me much. But still, she was my chicken, and she laid a very pretty green egg, and she did not deserve to die like that.)

That's the first time I ever lost a chicken to a predator. I'm gonna have DH do a good perimeter walk in the AM and shore up any holes. I have a terrible feeling I somehow missed her on a head count, thugh...poor baby.

Oh no. I am so sorry PBM.
These thing happen unfortunately.

Don't beat yourself up.

Thanks, Henny, I konw it happens. It just never happened to me. And I pride myself on having a super tight, secure run/coop situation, but I have an awful feeling I was lax on a head count and maybe let them out yesterday cuz it was a nice day, somehow didn't notice that she wasn't outside, and she got killed because I wasn't paying attention like I should have been.


I'm just really glad it wasn't Flower or one of my black girls or Blueberry or my Brahmas, or Suzi or Fergus or Grumpy. Or Skinny Pete. Not like I have any favorites, mind you.

As awful as it was to find her like that it certainly would have been worse if it was one of the favorites.

Thanks, Rae, Ron, and Henny! I'm OK, really, I just feel bad for her. And Henny, YES, 1000% (I know it makes me soud like a total d*ck, but if I have to lose a chicken, I really would not want it to be one of my favorite babies! Cuz let's face it, we do have our favorites, and if it was Flower, I would be sobbing like a baby, OMG. I love that chicken almost like she was one of my dogs. Ya know? I mean I LOVE HER! )
