Quotes and Thoughts for the Day

This reminded me of:

“Each human being is unique, each with their own qualities, instincts, forms of pleasure, and desire for adventure. However, society always imposes on us a collective ways of behaving, and people never stop to wonder why they should behave like that. They just accept it, the way typists accepted the fact that the QWERTY keyboard was the best possible one. Have you ever met anyone is your entire life who asked why the hands of a clock should go in one particular direction and not the other?”

Paulo Coelho, Veronika Decides to Die
bingo!

Good morning everyone.

After work I ordered one buff orpington and one easter egger. This will be my only easter egger and I can't wait to see those fat cheeks. I get to pick them up next Monday.

Unfortunately last night my little runt, Eggness, passed away. I gave her, her medicine and water after work. She seemed ok and around dinner time she was even preening herself. She hadn't done that all week so we were feeling very optimistic. Then before bed I went to feed her again and she wouldn't take it. I moved my hand near her eye and she didn't respond. So we both sat down by her and within 2 minutes she was gone. She will be missed around here, but I'm glad she's no longer suffering.
Shannon, I'm so sorry. I am about to lose one too. Tajua is just sitting there in her pen now. She was the one we thought would be a replacement broody when Zoe quit. Well she sits still but that's it. She is internally laying. It is so sad.

It bums me out. DH won't cull her, he sees improvement. It's just a matter of time now.
I showed him a thread about it and he is processing it. It's funny how much he loves these birds without realizing.
