Good morning all

Black chick still missing, but it wasn't the cockerel, it was the pullet. I guess in the twilight I just assumed it was the cockerel. I have over 40 hens and was trying to get over processing a perfectly good pullet anyway. I usually sell the extras pullets but not eager to have people coming over this year.

Still, it is sad to loose one. You could probably sell pullets next Spring pretty easy already laying. I just did the 6' distance for a couple of people we knew when I sold the extras.
 
I was on my feet quite a bit yesterday and I will be again today. My ankle doesn't like it. 😒 I put it up with ice when I can. It doesn't really hurt but I can see it gets a little fatter.
FYI a large disposable glove makes a great ice pack in a pinch.

I lost my bank card yesterday. Went to 2 stores and used it. Got to the third stop and didn't have it when I went to pay. I have the receipt from the last place I used it but no card. It was about an hour from when I used it so went right back to the store. They didn't have it. No one turned it in. Emptied my purse and wallet. Went through the groceries. Looked through the car. Nothing. So I locked it so no one can use it and called the bank this morning.
I won't have a card for 2 weeks. 🤬 They can't issue you a new card without canceling the old one. I asked what that does to my bills that are linked to it? I'll have to update them all. Ok... but some are due within a 2 week period. So what about those that will automatically be charged. "They'll be denied" Super F*ing Helpful! Luckily all my bills are paid on time and big ones (mortgage) I think, are linked to my account not the card. But we will see when I have to update everything. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Why they can't send a card to be activated while the old card is still available I don't know. Locking it makes it so it can't actively be used but recurring payments will be made. To me it seems like locking the lost card, sending a new one then canceling the lost card when a new one is activated makes way more sense. What would I know?

Holy carp!!! My credit union will cancel the lost card immediately and issue a new one immediately. What a nightmare!

Praying your ankle gets better soon.

That stinks about the card. I had the same thing happen. I now have several cards and switch when I have bogus charges and they shut down the account. Still a pain to switch everything.

How did you do the cage transfer?

She brought her big dog kennel, I put birds in it while she waited outside the brooder shed. She got 1/2 of the Barred Hollands to raise. (I get hatching eggs later). I took the cage to her car, I have a nice red wagon. She and her husband waited outside and loaded the cage. I washed my hands after handling birds and her cage. I figure it was less contact than going to the grocery store. They were in our driveway. If there were some bad bird disease I would have had them park on the street and not drive in on our lot. This only occurred to me later, LOL! We only met for about 10 minutes, outside and way over 6 feet apart.

Most people around here want to see them before they buy. I usually have feral pullets in a coop and we both go in. They man the cage and I catch with the net :lau
 
FlyingNun, call everyone that will come due in that time frame, and explain what's going on. Sometimes they're cooperative, sometimes they'll ask for a letter from your bank. We went to our bank, and they gave us a letter, stating we had to de-activate our card, and would get a new one within 2 weeks, which we faxed/emailed to our creditors. Everyone cooperated. As soon as we got our new card number, we called everyone. Yes, it's an inconvenience, but as inconveniences go, it's not the worst.
