@rjohns39 & @Grammy60 Our news is saying @ least 19 dead. That was a wowzer! How was your day?

Torrential rain came through about 1am. The girls don't like rain like that but though the showers are still coming across the bay in short bursts most of the girls are up & downstairs. We have been struggling with flies in the runs since the drought broke as the litter hasn't been able to dry out properly. I'm considering some DE or lime. Plus Lavender is molting. Pale lilac feathers everywhere & one very peculiar looking bird! Egg production is way down so I figure a couple of the others will be joining her shortly. She was sure quick off the mark. We are only a couple of days into what is supposed to be Autumn ~ though you'd never know it from our temps!

I just want you to know I read all of your posts and find them wonderful.

I found myself thinking the same thing the other day. I put up this huge post, pictures, videos, and nothing. Then later in the day responses started coming in.

I've learned that the "like" is a reward all its own. On a certain level, I can't believe anyone reads what I post.

Most of all, this community were have created organically is amazing. I value anyone who joins us and appreciate all of the support here even when I make mistakes with the flock. And of course you are a key member of "the Flock". Thank you for joining with us.

I read everything.

I don't always have the time to respond in as much detail as I wish.

Me too. I always read everything even if I can't respond.

I think the edges of your rain cloud have drifted down south Ribh. Very wet today, Nyssa and River are having a sleep-in. I had to climb in under the canteen to give Chickie her pill; she wasn’t coming out!

Yep. The girls complained until things dried up a bit. No~one's laying though!

Good evening folks

Jeannie hope you feel better quickly We're up early this morning due to weather... multiple emergency alerts on the cell phone woke us then we got a phone call from the county telling us to take cover. A tornado touched down south west of us and traveled south east of us. Thankfully it stayed south. We've gotten 3.8 cm of rain in the last 3 hours with lots of lightning and a good dose of hail as well.

I was wondering about yall over there! Glad yall fared well but so sad for those who didn’t

The gals found a new dust bath site... they love to bathe around the base of the trees...

We just had a storm so bad I was worried about tornadoes. I am so glad everyone is in the big coop tonight. Really nasty.
