I thought they were darker. I didn't know they had golden heads. They look nothing like the ones at the NYS Fair. Or are they different from New Hampshire Reds?
Roo? Stare me down? Never! Lancelot stares at me all the time...he sorta side steps towards me with left wing lowered, clucks to me and hands me some little tidbit like a piece of grass, a leaf or a small rock. Does that count? Hubby saw him do that the other day and I was standing there with a leaf in my hand saying "Thank you Lancelot now it is time for bed, come on let's go" and he trotted off to the coop where DeDe was waiting for him, locked up before the sun came close to thinking about setting. That girl is in early every night now bad bad bad DeDe.
Just for the record...I was asleep UNTIL I hear the pitter patter of hooves in a certain Diva's pasture and looked out my bedroom window to see in the moonlight...a very large grey butt and a flying white tail wiz across the field
Houdini strikes again. 3:30 in the morning and she is lolligagging around her pasture, raising hell to get inside her stall because when she escaped she did not have the good sense to leave the gate open. So she proceeds to run back and forth up and down the fenceline until a light came home then she hauled butt into the barn waiting for a human slave to come out and open the gate for her. Silly girl Oh and she managed to get a small cut/scratch on her forehead during her gate unlocking escapade so I had to stand out there in a nightie, robe, rubber boots (looking like an idiot I might add) get her "medicine bucket", water, a sponge, a towel, antiseptic and antibiotic ointment for the cut cleaning and mending. And what was she doing during all of this? POUTING. She had the nerve to pout at me. I did not break out and cut my face scraping it on a huge concrete pillar or wooden barn support beam I was the idiot half dressed cleaning up the mess and SHE is pouting! Oh the indignity....Oh it stings.....Oh it hurts....Oh the water is too hot....oh the water is too cold.....oh I am dying and shall surely bleed to death from this scratch....oh the pain....I will be dead in the morning. OH HELLO DRAMA QUEEN IT IS MORNING!
She was still pouting when I turned off the light and came back to the house. I told her on my way out. "I will remove your body in the morning Jo should this horrible injury do you in before 7 am night night". Her bottom lip dropped even lower to the ground and I swear she sighed.
I turned out the light and came back to the house.
. What a brat!
Good night see you all in a few hours OH and BTW my MIL arrives about noon....send alcohol or valium. Overnight Express mail please and lots of it because when asked how long she was staying......"I don't know I have nothing to do until November".
Good moprning all,
Yeah! I found a home for my Splash roo. Also one of the NH roos. They went on and on about how pretty they are. Whew! Now LH does not have to get the Splash it has a home. I wormed all with the Valb. this week and they look really good. It was a good time to do total check over. No pest or scaly legs etc. Looking good.
I know i need pic. Its has been so hot here when the sun is out that I don't get them. I go feed and water really early so they have a check each am. I go back with treats in the pm. Hope all are doing well.
Beth Please get me Mr. Mentons phone num. I lost it. Gloria Jean
Yea, Gloria Jean! Of course, a bird as glorious as a splash Orpington or a NH would get a new owner without much trouble. Your namesake is getting more beautiful by the day, big lovely red comb/wattles, but no egg. I ask her where are my eggs almost daily.
LH, when you come get your babies, Bill may have to just leave you here till you MIL goes back home, LOL. NOVEMBER? Good grief, I couldn't take it! She must be pouting with her DH. And speaking of pouting, that Diva horse of yours is a trip! You gotta love her. She's too beautiful to be mad at for very long.

Eureka! That's it. I will call Dr. Mason and have him come look at this horrid wound on Jo and while he is here I will tell him she is afraid of the dark because she sees cows eating all of her hay in her dreams....and request a tranquilizer for her for a few nights so she can sleep. Then, I put more ointment on Jo maybe slap a princess bandaid on the horrid scratch and I TAKE THE TRANQUILIZER!
Knox you are brilliant now how much will it cost me to bribe the vet....$35.00 farm visit fee probably $30 in tranqs and maybe some cheesecake or $100 cash to take out his wife one night....very very worth it. I must begin plotting I have less than 3 hours to plan and organize
Gloria Jean YAY. I am so glad you found that beautiful boy a good home. Awesome
