The Evolution of Atlas: A Breeding (and Chat) Thread

I scald mine (dip in boiling water for about 15 seconds). I think the very hot water also helps reduce pathogens. And then strait into a cold water bath, so that they don't pre-cook.

Big news! My Tiny the Terrorist is famous, or will be when the Oct/Nov issue of Backyard Poultry is out! I haven't gotten my copy yet, but check this out:

Wow. That's so exciting. How's Tiny dealing with all the fame?

 

[speckledhen]

She's begging for extra attention, of course. Who knew my lunatic would be famous one day? That nutcase has almost been executed so many times, it's a wonder she has lived to almost 11 years old.

At least she's not demanding professional massages, and a limo. We'll have to find some sunglasses her size, so everyone knows she's famous.

Again? Says my package, a different package, was delivered today to my mailbox. Well, it wasn't in there. So, here we go again...

Sorry! This happens sometimes. Please check your front porch, side door, back porch,garage area, bushes, and mailbox to make sure it’s not hiding or jammed. Also ask your neighbors if they may have received it for you. If your package still hasn’t turned up in 3 more days, please contact us.


well, there is nowhere to check. I don't talk to any neighbors. My mailbox is on a different street, no garage, bushes, back porch (and we were out there all day working on the lift), and all the mailboxes are spread out. Grrrrr

I got that response not too long ago on a package. Apparently it's a message from the future. My package arrived the next day.

They are so incompetent. I miss my mail carrier who retired. He was efficient and really cared about his job. I'll wait and see. If it never shows up, I'll get a refund, but dang, twice in a few days' time is just ridiculous. And it's worse because so much has to be done online now.

Same thing happened, Lisa. It was in the box yesterday. Why was it marked delivered the day before? How can you track something with mistakes like that?

 

[getaclue]

That would drive my husband up a wall. He tracks every purchase, and anticipates it's delivery.
