Just got in from FINALLY getting the big coop cleaned.Only two months behind on the spring cleaning, but hey! It's been a late spring here, a wet, cool one also so the way I see it, think of June as being the first of May and I'm right on schedule. Also discovered where mice had chewed through one inch boards and had to staple in hardware cloth. In between DH dumping the tractor bucket for me I watched one of my brood hens teach her 2 week old babies how to eat a baby mouse she had discovered somewhere. If it hadn't been so gruesome it would have been funny. I would have bet real money a 2 week old chick couldn't swallow a baby mouse but dang I would have lost the money. What was impressive was the fact that mamma, who is the hen that has been beating the dirt out of me ever since she went broody was diligently following the babies around, pulling the mouse out of their mouths and ummmmm tenderizing it before handing it back over to them.
I don't want to do the kidney stone thing either. I may have passed some gravel at one point due to some suspicious symptoms I was having that nobody could pen a diagnosis on. But be warned, due to the uniqueness of the male anatomy, kidney stones are much much harder on men then they are on women and they aren't all that much fun for women either.
Darling baby bunnies. We don't have any this year. But glad you have things on hold till you can round them all up. Usually they are about that size when I find them with the lawn mower.Really ruins my day when that happens.
As for eggs. Over easy but I do like poached and scrambled also.
Thanks for the warning about kidney stones!I did some work in the back yard yesterday. I get some of the side yard cleaned out tonigh
Really ruins my day when that happens.
