Some people like to research so things don't come as a surprise

Obviously not ALL, but yes, I am one of the SOME.

I fully understand. There is no deception with dogs.

I dunno, I’ve met some shifty dogs.

The smart ones...

Dumb dogs are way better (as long as there are enough smarts to fully potty train)

I dunno, I’ve met some shifty dogs.

I know, but they were two legged.

Good morning, OF.

Morning old folk! Another weekend for the history books.

Today is Pearl Harbor Day. Please take a moment to remember all those people who were killed at Pearl Harbor and the service men and women who died as a result to the starting of WWII.

Dd #2 came over a bit late, but we did get 3 cockerels processed. She'll come again on her next day off, and we'll finish them up. We had an audience today. Dh, Dd #1, and the grands watched us process 1 of them. It went well. They're not fans, but nobody fainted, or ran off screaming, and nobody's head exploded. It's better than they've done before. Usually, Dh insists I do it on one of his work nights, because he can sleep through it, and all evidence is gone by the time he wakes up. Dd #1 stays in the house, and won't venture out until she's sure it's all over, and cleaned up.

I really need a tub chicken plucker. I need the money for one too , but that's besides the point.

I hope it is quieter today after the three are gone!

With all the Hawks and dogs around they have to stay in the pen most of the time. I know there's a lot of disagreement about letting them have alfalfa hay (including the price and crop blockage) but They spend a lot of time scratching in it.. see the difference between the store egg and the home grown one?

I tried giving my hens timothy hay cubes...It is one thing they will not touch!
