Last night's freak wind picked up both the hoop coops I built and tossed them around. One flew at least 100 yards. They were really messed up and I spend the whole day fixing those. I sure hope I got it predator-proof enough.

I'm so exhausted and frustrated, seems like I spent a whole day getting back to where I was just a day before. I suppose I should be very thankful the birds didn't take off or get eaten while exposed. Some of those birds were very valuable to me.

Glad you chooks made it through....and a bit of the wag of the finger that your hoops were not up to the tasks of handling bad weather....all a learning experience......

Wish we were closer, would of helped out.
 
Update. Dreamy can't get to the vet until next Thursday/Friday. Unfortunately the vets around here aren't willing to take promises or post dated checks :/. She's still bleeding off and on from her mouth mostly after a drink but I did get some orajel to put on it for now. It seems to help. I'll keep everyone updated on how things turn our next week.

Makes me sad to think she might be in pain. It's encouraging to me to know how much dogs thrive on love. I'm in close contact with several older dogs, they have various illnesses related to getting old, but they are so delighted to be with their families I think it's a good trade for them.

I love dogs and am glad you share your life with one, she's lucky to have your family to be part of.

Anybody interested in some of those Muscovy babies, I have way more than I need...

Very tempting, if only I was so overrun with chickens now. I really want to free range some muscovies to eat bugs. I fear for the hens sitting in secret places and getting eaten by foxes, That seems the ultimate fate of anything we free range (except the big, ugly roos - I suppose they are too onery and tough for the foxes).

What I'm really hoping for is black east indies when yours start laying. I picture my daughter (who loves ducklings) hatching these with my grandsons and working from birth to get them very tame before going to the farm as pets.

Think that's possible?
