Ribh's D'Coopage

[BY Bob]

I asked no.6 if he'd noticed chickens in his very lovely yard as the fence is low on that side. Ha'penny & Beatha have both been fence hopping but he was very nice about it & said they weren't a problem. I told him they were both feral & to keep an eye out for white or blue eggs. He was shocked about the blue eggs. So many people are. I also assured him they woul clean up any bugs they found. With half an acre all to themselves you'd think they'd stay home!

I'm so glad he was nice about it. They will improve his yard nicely.

When I first gave the blue ones to our neighbor behind us they simply could not believe how beautiful they were. In the spring I had cartons with blue, white, pink, beige, and speckled eggs. It was like Easter all the time.

Thanks, Bob. My schedule is all over the place & I'm not really keeping up with anyone just now.

@Ribh the hollyhocks continue to multiply this year. I've gone from 1 the first year to 2 last year to 5 this year.

You know that the bugs are always juicer on the other side of the fence!

During the recent wet weather the chooks took shelter in the car port. There is now chook poop all over the back patio.

Caturday in Oz
I just wanted to let you all know that this little love bug will no longer be participating in Caturday.
Sadly I had to have him put to sleep by the emergency vet last Sunday.
He leaves a huge hole in my heart. My house seems so empty without him and my other cats are definitely unsettled by his absence.
Hopefully he has gone somewhere with lots of books to destroy and infinite other ways he can create chaos.
He was much loved and our time together was way too short.
