    I am so sorry to hear the news. She was still a lucky little hen. So many don't get to experience motherhood; I feel especially bad when I lose a hen that lacked the instinct or just missed the opportunity. And of course, you kept her cozy and as safe as possible. Her legacy to the flock will go...

    Chicken therapy; I love it. Chickens are definitely good at keeping me grounded and in the moment. They seem to have such relish for their simple lives. I think they are often wiser than I with all my daily anxieties. I hope your surgery goes super smoothly!

    I've had it in a pot, purchased from TSC, and killed it in months. Meanwhile, some volunteered wild and is growing in two separate and very healthy patches in my yard! I think I've got the old brown thumb going on, except a few exceptionally abuse tolerant indoor plants... :oops:

    I had a cockerel in a dog crate inside our run recently. We were figuring out what to do with him. He'd started a nasty fight with his former companion (another cockerel hatchmate) and so had to be kept separate. We had a tarp over it halfway or so to keep any rain off... Dern if that cockerel...

    Your milkweed is huge!! Mine are still quite small and nowhere near flowering. And that's awesome gardening; I haven't sown the first thing yet and you are already harvesting! 😅 I definitely favor livestock over gardening but I hope to improve eventually...

    He is so darling in this photo!! I realize his fiery red isn't preferred for his breed, but I think it makes for a really pretty contrast. There just needs to be a brighter-red subtype of Speckled Sussex ❤️

    💔 I am so sorry, Fuzzi. She was safe, loved, and happy fulfilling her instincts as a mama because you made that happen for her. A very good life for a very special hen. We can only control so much and the rest is out of our hands. Rest well, sweet Martha.

    I like it right up until I see the little holes. I may or may not have a phobia of wasps and wasp nests :oops: Still, whoever made that is extremely talented!

    She's such a cutie! Hope she turns out to be a great fit for you. I've got a soft spot for boxers and boxer mixes/look alikes.

    Continued prayers for all peace and comfort to come to you, Fuzzi. Words just fall short of what is necessary, but I'm in awe of the beautiful relationship you and Ron forged in life and I'm confident it will continue for both of you in this new season. Life is such a mystery but I truly believe...

    You know what would be popular around here? A chicken themed "secret santa" where people could receive unlimited chicken swag and gear without personally having to take responsibility for splurging on it :gig I have recently acquired that chicken-butt hanger, a nice throw, and another coffee...

    Speaking of chicken merch, just had to share this thing I ALMOST bought at TSC yesterday... Alas, my house is already full!! I haven't laughed that hard in a store for some time, though.

    Oh my word. She's stunning. If I looked half that good I'd never stop looking in the mirror 🤣 I wonder if they feel a bit rejuvenated after all that hard work molting. It certainly pays off!

    Bless her heart. She's still so beautiful, though. I have a couple also looking similarly ragged; I'll be glad when molt season is over!
