lil bit between witner and throwing my back out

Extra for you... please take it easy and take care of yourself...

  I know, messy!  I have friends that have them. This is why I can't, I just have a back yard.  If I had the land, I would have them!

    I showed my DH your photos..he had ducks back before we married.  He was telling me just how smart they are!   He had placed some ducks to a woman around 2 miles away..serious..and those ducks, walked, home.  All the way..2 miles..3 days later, they were home!   I asked him if he kept them..they decided to.      He said they were roughed up a bit, but man, they are as loyal as a dog! 

That is too awesome!! And yes, they are!! Loyal and super smart!!

thanks for the welcome

Hey, I hope you didn't take that ... no you cannot serious when I welcomed you. My silly sense of humor. I just recognized a friend, thought I would tease. I was truly happy to see you here!!

It'll be fine!

My other half pretends to be not interested in them but I've caught him often enough chatting away to chicks in the incubator Plus he's been caught with his hands in the brooder when he thinks no one is looking!! The look of a kid caught in the cookie jar
He's a secret chick addict!!

oh my husband hates them... Or so he claims. But when I walk into the kids rooms to get them up and find him there with a chick in hand waking them with the cheeping... Oh yeah. Big bad man with a cute fluff in hand.

I hear you, my DH came around too. With the whole chicken thing. Now, when I need to sell one of my girls, he says..what? You're selling Mable? Not Mable!

mine have no idea I'm doing a rescue hatch starting today. He will be the same. Oh no. Not Pip Squeak. But that's Knuckles. You can cull him. What did the kids want to name that one?

on and on he goes. But he doesn't like the birds. Yeah righttttt.....
My favorite is when he comes home with egg orders. He counts them out and puts the big ones back saying he might set that one.
