I can't believe Romeo & Cuddles are 3! That's crazy!!

Back home! Whew! Long week on the road. The girls were excited to get lap time & take walks! They were both chatty...heard about all their woes. Neither let me out of their sight. Which makes unloading the van tricky. Had to toss each out of the van several times. Now back to work! Oh boy....

Such cute chicks y'all!

Well....turned the A/C on in the house tonight. I caved in. I cant sleep if it's too warm. I also need to set up the girls fans. Coonhound disappeared & I found him asleep on an A/C vent. He loves his creature comforts.

Daisy flew into my yard yesterday evening. She's a funny bird. Found her standing on my backporch. She left poor Annie in the back screaming her beak off. Sat on the steps with her for quite awhile. Guess she just needed extra attention? She settled down next to me & preened herself. Making those little happy turkey sounds. She's a trip....

Nothing cuter than bug eyed babies Sara! Let us know what the group says.
Noticed we are slacking on pictures lately. Well I've got one...sort of. Artist friend did Daisy. Her art always has a funny edge to it!

Thanks Cindy....they make me laugh.

Rjohns....sort of surprised the vet didn't make you catch your birds.

Getting ready for another stormy weekend. Blah!

Tried to get some yard work done yesterday. Girls were pesty. Gave up & just hung out with them. They sure have my number! Manipulative wenches!

LOL...love the dude with his tats and turkey!!

My turkey girls and chickens are easy for me to catch. They wouldn't let someone else catch 'em. They will let someone hold them if I hand them off. The chickens don't like it tho....

Had the girls out for a quick graze before bedtime. Supposed to rain tomorrow...again. You'd think Daisy would be full after her fern salad....but she ate like a little piggy. My poor ferns! She flew into my yard again. She's like a darn fern eating pigeon.
