Stupid hawks are thick here currently.

So sorry for your loss, Nella. I sure hope it calms down there for ya.

Crap, Janelle! Thank goodness you did downsize enough that you can lock them inside while you're at work! I cannot believe I've never had a loss to a hawk, not with all the population we have here in the mtns and the numerous scares they've had, including the one where I looked out the window in time to see one trying to turn upward from a miss in the middle of the yard. He was right in Isaac and Suede territory, though-not easy to make a surprise dive there!

Brandon,

that you'll get your package today. Then, you may be saying, "Um, what is it?"

LH, no calls in the last two days? Enjoying your childfree vacation too much? (Sorry, Chy, LOL)

 

[kathyinmo]

Can you believe it?! It is 57 degrees here NOW, at 0715! Drizzle and rain for a couple days, and more today (forecasted). Suppose to get up to 60. I am lovin' it!

Oh for the love of little green apples!

Would you care to take a guess at what the porch thermometer was reading at the ungodly hour of 5:00 this morning? 18F! Yes, that's EIGHTEEN degrees Fahrenheit!!!

And y'all want me to toss that poor little baby out into THAT?!?!

Oh, and there's also a fresh layer of snow out there this morning. About an inch. Looks like egg production might slow down a bit, for the next few days at least.

See LH? I told ya so! Didn't I? Hours and hours of homage to the DivaDo!!

Considering the insult, I think you got off lightly!!

Laura, I'll keep the Flying Monkeys penned up for now. Provided you continue to behave yourself!!

Nella,

sorry about Stew #3. Poor little gal.

I hate hawks who have a taste for chicken!

Gloria Jean, I think we're very much in need of some new pictures of your babies!

Brandon, keep it up sweetie! It should get easier and easier every day now!

OK, tons and tons of crap to get done today. Those poor boys of mine need a clean coop in the worst way! Hope everyone has a great day. Kathy, send some of that warm air up here please, but keep the rain with you, if you'd be so kind?!?

 

[speckledhen]

Should be upwards of 70 here today. Woohoo! Love this spring-like weather! Even Zane can get outside today!


Sorry, Amy.

Serrin, My photo whatever has changed format and I do not know how to put pic's on it to transfer,

I hate new changes that don't give us oldies good infor. on its use. I have tried 4 or 5 times no luck. Help me to learn how. I would gladly put new pic's of my beauties on for you. They sure have grown big

. My barred rocks are beautifully maked and huge for barreds; to me that is.
I am in the stage of saving for a bator. I think it will be the 1588 hovatype with fan and turnner. I'am almost there. Its an expense that no one but me here at home needs to know about. My DD's husband is sick and out of work again so we have been helping them some. If I get anything new she makes a wistful, sarcastic comment about she wished she could afford so and so, whatever. We have worked our whole lives for the amt. we have accumulated for this age. She is working hard too but her hb is either sick or not wanting to really get a job that is beneath him

I worked in the fields and any where I could find work. I even picked up corn behind the combines at one time of someone elses fields to sell the corn for Christmas gifts and Food. He makes me so angry but she seems to almost be afraid of him. They have a child with Degeorges Syndrome or they would have to go it alone. Well I have ranted enough about that.

My chickes really are beautiful thanks to Kathy and Beth. Gloria Jean

 

[Serrin]

Gloria Jean, you just rant all you want sweetie! It's better to let it out than to keep that stuff bottled up inside of you!

I fully understand your sentiments. Some folks just have an elevated opinion of themselves that isn't exactly shared by the rest of the world. What can ya do? Just sigh, roll your eyes and give 'em a scornful look. Scorn and disdain from others can go a long way to changing a persons opinion of themselves ya know!

Hang in there dear lady. Brighter days will shine again.

 

[Inkheart]

People do get a bit too high above themsaelves sometimes. I am the laid off king - so in times i have worked in a deli - spraying lawns and mowing - all sorts of things . Nothing is beneath a person when they dont have a job and need money!!!!!!! till him to get over it and work!

 

[Cetawin]

No kidding Amy but she can snatch me backwards like I am a feather. Dang girl does not know her own strength at times, snatch me right off my feet when she wants to be insistent. Brat.

And that Delawegger.

. She is failing her "You are a chicken" classes! She has no clue, no desire and no need to be a chicken in her mind. I had to shoe her away (literally push her back with the side of my shoe) just to get in the Jeep this morning to go to the chiropractor. And she will march in the front door like she belongs inside and go straight to the living room and sit her white fluffy butt down in front of the wood stove and TV or make herself comfy on Casca's dog bed for God's sake! She thinks the kitchen is a cool place too if you are in it and there is food out within her sight if not, it is back to the living room. WTH is up with this chicken?

First she playing Halo on the XBox, then plowed over by Addie and she is paralyzed whenever you look at her and now she is a human daughter with feathers in her mind. WTH did Tom do to her Cynthia?

Oh and Lancelot has attacked me, well my gloved hand, he hates the gloves. He and Delilah snatched one off the porch and took it out in the yard and beat the crap out of it and I had to wrestle it away from them. And I think Lancelot is catching pneumonia again. So I am keeping a close eye on him and now he is trying to attack my gloves whenever I wear them. It is flippin Mayhen around here. Grrrrrrrrr


Nella I am sorry about Stew, I saw 6 redtails sitting on the powerline yesterday about 2 miles from me. They were there the day before also. But I am feeding the crows here every morning so any of the hawks won't get too close to here for sure.

 

[Inkheart]

That chicken is hysterical LH! I love her - always love a girl with a sense of adventure and a TUDE !!!!
