I came out of the coop earlier to my super dog growling at a fox that had tried to sneak up. My Ruger was blocking his way to me and the coop. The fox was not afraid of me and not having a gun I threw the feed bucket at it. It ran a few feet away so I yelled for my pup and we ran. I spent the last hour trying to dispose of the very strange acting fox. Things I learned today:
1. I'm a terrible shot and need LOTS of target practice.
2. Trying to be Annie Oakley while having the flu (fever, shaking and weak) is not a super idea.
3. My 20lb pup has the heart of a lion and is my protector. (He's getting a piece of deer steak for supper)
4. Pistol needs to be on my hip whenever I go out. Feed buckets are only mildly effective.
5. Finally, crazy animals need to stay away from my coop because even though I can barely stand today I will defend my flock.

Hope you feel better. I hope you get that fox!!!

The scary part is that the fox was not afraid, most would rather flee than fight...keep a close eye out for that one...
 
Since most of Pa is being buried under snow, what's for dinner...

I was playing around with a new scent today. I figured I'd share the bright colors to help break up any winter blues that are starting to form!

Wow!! These are amazing. Sure cure for the winter blues. Nothing quite says 'winter' like scraping frozen poo out of nesting boxes. :sick spent my morning cleaning coops. Mfeels real good knowing they are clean and dry. Although I have a coop infested with lice and mites. One of my cockerels was so badly infested that I pulled him out and bathed him....several times. He's in the laundry room, not quite completely dry, but eating. Sure hope he recovers. And I sure hope his brother doesn't beat the tar out of him when he returns to the coop. All the other birds in that coop got the 'shake n bake' treatment -fill pillow case with Permethrin Powder and just add chicken. :D

Ok so we caved in and gave my little sikie some eggs to sit on. Our rooster is the Golden laced wyandotte and the hens are Easter eggers. Will the babies lay an olive colored egg or a brown egg? I gave her the green ones so I know if there is a new egg in there with her lol. She was so happy to get the eggs she was making the purring noise.
