The latest batch of chicks is hatching like crazy! And i put the next batch on lockdown.

I spent the day watching the guy put in our new internet system. Of course, that meant I got elected to run back and forth to check on various components, and inform him of their status. It took part of the day, but he finally got everything up, and running correctly.

While all that was going on, my new fiber optic cable came in. After the guy left, and everything was working, it was time to tackle running the cable from my computer, to the receiver on my home theater system. I discovered I am not nearly as flexible as I used to be. I've got a bit of a backache tonight. To get it run properly, there were times I looked like a contortionist, fishing the line around, and through the obstacle course. It looks good. Yes, the new cable was worth the effort no matter what my back is telling me.

Hope your back feels better soon!

I brought in a pan of dirt for my babies. In typical fashion, they weren't sure what to do with it yet and this is one of those things that a broody would show her babies. I love my chicks but I'm not about to lie down in dirt and show them the fine art of dirt bathing.

I have one Delaware chick (I'm afraid this one's a cockerel) who loves to play a game: hop on the human's hand, then try to run up her sleeve to her shoulders/back. When human catches me, I jump from her hand and FLY to the floor. Then run back and wait to jump on the hand again, repeat.

I feel like an amusement park ride.

When I sit in the pen with the juvies, I feel like a living statue.. Crow jumps on my back and climbs to my shoulder then on to my head.. A few of the girls follow up to the shoulders.. Some jump in my lap.. Always plenty of chick love to go around.

Morning OF!

You have grandkids living with you! They would have fit in small places and contorted easily. Plus they might have found the task fun.
