So, even my own chickens come to harass me when I am online. This is a picture of the chickens that had just been pecking on the sliding glass door at me to feed them running away as I got closer to take thier picture. Little chickens, lol!!!! Ho ho ho, I am such a card!!! These hens have rousted me off the computer today by pecking on my sliding glass door. Having fed them, watered them and collected thier eggs I feel complete and whole, lol.

Yes, I need to get a life. Oh, wait, we'll be getting a lot more of these little things in the coming months. little yellow puff balls headed for some good eating when they have been grown to the desired weight. They have a good life here, allowed to roam and eat bugs, grasses and lots of corn. This year we won't be taking care of that chore all on our own. We are going to raise them and then sell them at a farmer's auction.

This whole experience has resulted in a daughter that will no longer eat chicken. Ok, we have other sources of animal protein available. Wonder if she will still eat hamburgers when she sees the steer we want to get wandering through our fields? Well, I guess then she won't have the propensity towards heart disease that prevails in my family due to horrible eating habits laden with animal fats left and right. I guess that's good huh?
