Why those are rare New Mexico tree chickens!

Do you have raccoons or possums there?

 

[WriterofWords]

No, no coons or possums here, we have mainly ground dwelling predators except for predatory birds. They are safer in the trees at night than anywhere else.

LOL Princess, can you just see an add for something like that?

Well... They do say that most elders are set in their age. ^-^ They can be very stubborn when they want to.

Thanks for the belly laugh! A friend of mine has a flock that roost in a Cottonwood tree, I think I'll pass your story on to him.

What is Nugget? I assume not a chicken...

I had some family come in from Odessa when I was a kid. The kids had never seen chickens before. As we lived on a working farm with cattle, horses, and chickens, I told them that they couldn't be a cowboy until they could rope a chicken...
Yeeeeah, that joke didn't go over well. My cousins chased the chickens constantly, and they stopped laying. My grandfather was yelling at them to stop chasing the chickens, but they were determined to rope a chicken until they went home.
When I told my grandfather what I had told them, I got my butt whipped and then he started laughing until he had tears running down his face.

It was totally worth it!!
