Stuff and nonsense
- gary'd sent me a link to a chicken-raising email newsletter he gets
- i subscribed too
- what the heck are we doing?
- but still, it's very zen-like to sit outside and watch the chickens be chickens
- they're so funny, and have such distinct personalities
- piglet is the love of everyone, liking to be held and hiding her head in your hand...very stork-like in that respect...she's also the runt
- anastasia is the girl you want to know and aren't jealous of...slightly dumb-blondish
- nora isn't very friendly, but isn't rude...she's just not keen on much holding...probably just an introvert (i can relate)
- madelyn is very friendly and always glad to sit on a lap...curious about everything, to her detriment
- and milk is the leader of the pack...even scared off violet the pug today when said pug wanted to
sniff eat the chicken's crackers...milk put down her head and stared down violet...must keep chicken beaks far away from buggy pug's eyes...they peck very quickly - a bit tired today
- some days are just like that
- was fine until gary texted me with a problem he had with a delivery
- the doorway at the home was mis-measured and he had to alter a piece he'd made
- my energy level plummeted when he told me the details
- just wife sympathy for the husband, i guess
- thankfully everything worked out just fine
- we've trained the chickens inside to roost when it's dusk
- thinking the coop will be ready very soon, but until it is, this large amazon cardboard box is winning
- must let them know what a quality box they ship things in :)
- now all is quiet, and it's time to rest
