Hey there, just found the Texas thread. I am in Brenham, moved here from SoCAL a little over 2 years ago and have 7 hens and a rooster (thanks to grandson's pre-school hatching). Very much a newbie at everything Texas but love it here!

So 5 chicks hatched and a raptor took one chick yesterday wish i could identify the hawk, but we have so many. Luckily the chick my eye is on is still alive. She is the half and halfey one with frizzled feathers she is going to be cute.

So are any other South Texans getting these winds? I am thinking I will be firing up the chainsaw in the morning to cut the Mesquite that falls tonight into small pieces. Just a me thing. I am really hoping these 50mph winds drop another house on Ellion Musk's rockets he is blocking HWY4 to my beach.

So some delayed pics of our 1st snow of 2020 here in north Texas from last week.
(That's Bohdi, one of our rescued OES, he doesn't wag - he shimmies!)
The explorers are milling about...
THAT Look on his face!!!!! Priceless.
(Care to caption this?)
She's not quite sure what to think of the snow clinging to her foot like mud, just colder yet.... (Giggles)
One of the funnier action shots.

I don't miss the white stuff at all. I use to live North of McKinney. We use to get snow and ice every year, sometimes more snow than ice.

Hey! I feel like I've been neglecting you all. I'm missing @AllenK RGV 's ramblings and @Kiki & @007Sean just generally good naturedness.
It's been a busy new year. Business is good and we have 2 more grandchildren on the way. That will make 11!!!
I've adopted a kitten (& apparently her extended family) and the chicken flock just keeps growing. I'm still considering quail too @Kiki .
I hope you are all having a very happy 2020 thus far.
