My Great Grandma had them & anytime we were here I would alway go see if there were some eggs & sit in the yard watching them. I guess that is where I got it from.

When I was young my grandparents had chickens, I always thought they were pretty, but I was afraid of them. When my gma would send me to the coop to gather the eggs I would always come back with A LOT fewer eggs then when she went, took her a little while to figure it out. I wouldn't reach under the chicken to get the eggs and would only collect the ones by themselves in the nest.

That is cute. My DD is that way now.

I was the same way. I liked to find the eggs that were in an empty nest and especially like to use the bent spoon wired onto a long handle to get the eggs that were out of reach beneath the roost, but I wouldn't put my hand under a hen because it didn't take me more than a time or two to learn that being pecked by a hen isn't any fun. My mother told me many years later that she got out of collecting eggs after her mother caught her flinging the hens out of the nest by the neck, so she could get to the eggs without injury.

Sorry i have been catching up. I didn't respond to anyone because I knew I would never get caught up.
Sooner I blew the only chance I got. I shot at a big buck but missed. He was at least three hundred yards but I still should have made the shot. What I should have done was tried to get closer but he didn't act like he was gonna be hanging around in the open very long so I took a chance but missed.
Jared has been giving me a hard time. We were down by Antlers up in the "mountains' Just us and wildlife.
It was good times. Man I fogot how many stars there are. When you get way out away from any towns it is amazing how many stars you can see!
