The lab person looked at blood sample and said it was ok.. so no time needed.

Does it have a name yet? Can't have a nameless chook ya know, it causes them mental anguish by making them unsure of their identity...

It is either "Alfonso" or "Etta" depending on sex. The leg drop says it will be "etta".

What? It is now Ivie? I thought it was lvie (Lvie)... ok, I'm losing my mind. Put me in with ralphie.

Ive always thought ivie with an i. Ivy. I thought Lvie was a typo. But knowing her first name now maybe not...?

Ha-haha-ha-ha! No white fungus amungus up here in Gods country. Just frost on the grass and ice on the water founts.
Leech lake went out yesterday and last night.
Sun is shining.

Thank you Siggie and Cluckies for egg basket compliments. The dark egg is welsummer. Love her sweet personality too. They are lovely docile birds.

I lost one of my all time favorite birds yesterday... Did an autopsy and it took about 2 seconds to realize what was wrong... Hole in her crop and it leaked fluid, grass and feed into her breast area. I have pics and a video of me doing a complete amateur job of an autopsy...

RIP Big Momma

So sorry Holm

 

[duluthralphie]

Bummer, Holm, I think you should be my official autopsy doer, you are so good at it and I so hate it..

You going to New Ulm bird swap?

 

[duluthralphie]

@holm25 I am going to need a refund on the cats you sold me.


I specifically asked for barn cats. These two have decided they are too good for the barn and have moved into my shop/machine shed and are living on my couch in there. This is a breech of contract, pay up or prepare to be sued by the law firm of Dewey, Cheatum and Howe.

So sorry Holm about hen. How does a hen get a hole in their crop anyway?

It began as L vie. Then some chickeners thought it was i vie. There was a whole conversation going on about it and, as it really does not matter to me except that at my age, i vie sounded sexy to me so I let it be. I will answer to either.

Glad to hear that there was no problem with the blood sample you acquired Ralphie. Poor Turkey - the bird Ralphie, I am sympathizing with the bird that had the blood draw.

My understanding about the snow was that St. Cloud and north got nothing. At least that is what the weatherperson said. I never trust weather people.
