I had a pretty neat thing happen today.
I decided it was about time to start letting my 6 week old chicks start ranging the yard. I went out this morning and let them go and they spread out pretty good. I kept going out to check on them and each time they were covering more and more ground. The last time I went out there, I found a ring I've been missing for two years! One of the chicks found it and brought it back to the coop.
It is a titanium wedding band that spins like a bearing. My wife gave it to me for our 5th anniversary, and I used to wear it alternately with my original plain gold band. It was a little too big for my finger, and if my hands got dusty it would slide off my finger. I lost it one day while I was cleaning out the coop and redoing the straw. It could've been anywhere on that side of my yard. And I'd written it off since I had most of my land excavated while cleaning up after the house fire. Whoever found it laid it down right where I feed and water them. I got it all cleaned up and it's good as new now. And thanks to me getting fat, it fits better now!
