Morning everyone......... haven't done chores yet being lazy today stayed up till almost 1am, to bake cookies for Adams lunch.....made peanut butter, and chocolate chip a double batch of each took forever to bake them........ Lol Adam was out 20 minutes after he ate supper, but after almost a 14 hour day he was exhausted............ he started at 6 am and got home a little after 9pm........ very long day for him, but everything went well and the trainer wasn't as much of a nightmare as he had been told to expect. So I thought I'd up the odds of his second day going well too, and sent extra cookies for Paul the trainer. Women can be so evil, when we know those little secrets like the quickest way to a man heart is through his stomach.............. hehehe
David so glad you got almost all your chickies back, seems a bit odd that only 1 of 2 showed up in the pen loaners usually stick together,, and I'm thinking that might be because something got the other and she was alone..... I pray I'm wrong.........and hope she still shows up in the pen today.......... Yah I think I would get that run covered quickly or and maybe clip there wings so they don't fly so well....... might help avoid another fly away.....
CC so sorry about Esmeralda.......... poor little girl. I hate when that happens ya feel so guilty wondering what ya missed, or didn't do.......... but as Jim says they sometimes just turn up 6 toes up...... sad though I love my chickies, and am still wonder what happened to peepers, though now that my 3 SS have molted and I actually took a good look at them yesterday I think Snowflake is actually the one gone......... Peepers is here but molted with so many new white speckles that I thought she was Snowflake. Still very sad because Snowflake was a very nice girl too and so pretty with all those speckles.
Again so sorry for your loss.......hugs are already sent.........
BigZ I swear if you don't stop teasing me with all those yummy meals I'm coming up there to clean out your freezer.............
Judge congrats on the new chickies, BSL's are great layers and pretty friendly chickens, I think the kids will like them alot.... I love mine and they lay tremendous amounts of eggs...I think my Daphne has laid and egg everyday from the time she started to molt this year and she is now almost 2 years old in March.... and nice big ones too...... at least my 3 girls seem to do that, I havde read it depends on what was used for the cross. I got mine at
TSC last spring and all 3 are a bit different, but lay well and are good foragers, and quite friendly.
BigFam, I think you are hilarious somedays.... laughed my butt off at your post...hehehe Japanese huh, makes sense though maybe that's why they ran away, they couldn't understand what David was saying.....conversion to English was something like hey get your arses out a here.... instead of what he was actually saying like you little buggers get back here or your stew..LOL or maybe they just heard the word stew........
Well Jim if Adam gets a load to Kansas maybe he could pick up the pup......... will see where they send him after today.........notysure how much business they have there though...... can't recall Jayme going there at all. But we can hope........... sounds like a cute pup and Bear and that pup would be more correct in the body style and big square head......... Max to me just looks like MOM....... just a little stinker version LOL.... Glad the guy picked up the Ollie and I still think it is just something stupid and not the bearings size, I can't image the guy would screw that up, but I guess it is possible.
So anyway best get to chores the horses are probably starving, over night is there longest time without food, during the day they get 4 feedings but have to suck it up so I can sleep during the over night..... so later all.... have a wonderful day..............Kim
