Falling Down Heights, my daily life

Oh ya! When it’s -42 it’s splendid! And my runs for 10 min though.

Mine goes for 20, but if it's under 0F, it's a 50/50 shot on if it's too cold and needs the actual key

My fav colour with Rex

Hard to tell in these photos but the first one is a blue (broken pattern), you should try to find some of those they are super pretty.

And for fun some Netherland dwarf (they are not the friendliest but they are cute).

Gosh this was way back in the 80s - miss my bunnies but I am way too old to start down that path again! Wish the colours hadn’t faded on these old photos.

Used to have fun showing these little turnips!

You're the same age as me!

I might actually enter my new girl in the Spencerville show.

As for Netherland Dwarfs... BLEH! I just don't like them, lol!

I have a rampaging raccoon on my hands... Well, wish it was in my hands so I could strangle it!!!

Since Friday, I have lost 5 brahma and 3 call ducks. And I thought they were secure.

Adding more security stuff now. More bolts and latches and hardware cloth.

I am sorry Wind.

Do you have a heat block? I always (try to remember) plug my truck in at night in the winter.

I equate them to silkies

Seems everything is out to get our chooks, one person on Fluffy Butt Acres thread had 3 of their beloved chooks killed by a coyote.

It’s always difficult to make sure everything is secure. Very stressful.

Had a bit of a panic last night which had me running to the barn at midnight; I was looking on the barn cam and it looked like a rat was up on the roosting ledge with the chooks.

All I could think of was that it was killing my silkies. All I could see was it beady eyes shining.

I snuck into the barn and shone my light on the culprit……

And it was Mr Little Chicken my OEGB Bantam. I guess it was too warm to roost in her box, she is just the same size as a rat!

So much stress these chooks.
