I do not have any Australorps now. I have 3 pita pintas, two whole foods chicks and one trader joes

....I need to hatch some australorps....

They sound like such a nice breed! Any breeders I see are f---a---r away. I have ones that look like them...but they're not.

If I'm correct that Mr. Rock is indeed a cuckoo marans...I am liking those.
(And here all this time I was thinking he was a barred rock!) Too funny!

My bantams are so funny. The two mature cockerels are forever at the fence separating them from the standard hens trying to court the Welsummers and arguing with the roosters. I finally put up a 3 foot high barrier yesterday to provide shade for the standards and put the standard hens 'out of sight out of mind' so to speak. One of the strips of tarp that I used was a bit shorter than the others. I didn't think anything of it until I turned around and caught on of the OEGB cockerels standing on his head trying to see 'under' the tarp. Needless to say the tarp strip got lowered.

I did manage to get the garden hoed. They are calling for rain through Wednesday here so I'm trying to get things outside caught up.

It was odd....because it was back when I was young...

I was taking the train through the Alps. As the train climbed in elevation, the skin on the backs of my hands just started to crack open. 4 or 5 long splits on the back of each hand.

It was a bit surreal.

I just watched them slowly split...all the way through the skin. The splits getting longer and deeper while I watched.
