    Blue Rooster, The Fainting Roo, R.I.P.

    For those who knew Blue and the story about him and Nugget, the skunk and Blue fainting, I wanted to let you know that Blue passed on to the big coop in the sky yesterday. He is the last of my originals from 2007, so he wasn't a young roo. He had a new girl friend, a gorgeous Barred Rock who had...

    Picture window, used in class 3 or 4 times, I just don't need several incubators anymore. This one is fantastic with it's big window and circulated air, it holds the temps very well. I DO NOT have a turner with this one. Postage is approx. $15, the last one I mailed was $19 but had a turner.

    RIP Pudster

    Pudster, Nugget, and Little Woo are together again on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge. I like to think Nugget was waiting for him to help him over. He went peacefully in my arms, surrounded by his beloved chickens and Miss Kitty.

It has landed a couple of times right outside my window, takes a break, then up it goes, circling the school honking at the top of it's lungs. We don't usually see geese around...

    RIP Big Tanker

    I wanted to let those who knew and loved Nugget that his big son Tanker passed away in his sleep last night. I weighed his body and he was just over 32 pounds. We knew he wasn't normal because he grew so fast and got so massive, but he may have only had a few years but they were good ones!
