Ribh's D'Coopage

[Ribh]

I bit the bullet tonight. At full dark I moved all the babies onto a roost in the big coop. There was some consternation ~ especially from Shuri who was the last one nabbed & totally distressed @ finding herself alone but they all settled well ~ well apart from Tsura who managed to crawl right down my jumper sleeve in the transfer necessitating the complete removal of said jumper in order to retrieve her. There's one in every crowd...but she was the first & had no idea what was happening to her.

I am glad that went well but I fear you may have started another round of international misunderstandings around the word jumper.

I did wonder when I wrote it but figured we've been round this circus enough times now for everyone to know I'm not removing a dress. Actually, I don't own any dresses... We all wear trousers in this house!

Good evening everyone

So happy it went well for you

I have a question. How small is Tsura and how big are the sleeves on your jumper?

I'm having a hard time picturing this interaction. Do you think she will pose in your sleeve for a photo tomorrow?

Glad the transfer went (reasonably) smoothly. I hope they are all peaceful for you tomorrow.

It was a zippered hoodie ~ so the sleeves are fairly tight but relatively easy to get to the armpit & start squirming down, which she did.

Good evening folks

I'm glad the transfer went reasonably well and with a bit of humor

Did she get in through the hood?

Now I want diagrams, story board style, of the whole event.
Are you sure you aren't practicing to be a stage magician Ribh?

"Watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat! Er.. Chicken out of my sleeve!"

Come to think of it Olivia would probably sit on your head and you could put a top hat over her...

Now your chooks are lining up for a caffeine hit!

The thought of chickens on caffeine scares the stuffing out of me! Phyllis is really quick now, a caffeine boost and I would never see her. She would be a blur!
