Granny's gone and done it again

[Nomadicus]

Two of the dozen girls lived past two years. I lost one just before the above photo was taken. Neither were supposed to have lived over a few weeks.

We are hibernating a bit too. But here it is because of the rain. We are getting plenty right now, but that's what makes this the green rain forest it is. Should have some sun peeking through by tomorrow and for a few days. That will be a nice break.

Hey I am from se Washington. Grew up in pullman

You take good care of your birds.

It was 53 on the porch at 4:30 but has already dropped to 45.

that's not shabby.

The last of my Big Girls as I fondly referred to my Cornish x Rock meat chickens that were kept for pets only. This was taken Christmas day, 2024 and was her second Christmas with us. She was two years old last October 31st. You can get an idea of just how big she is by the rear tire of the John Deere garden tractor.

We are being advised of a Winter Storm Watch for Sunday night to Monday morning. Freezing rain. Looks like our first winter weather might be an ice storm. And I'm afraid to use the wood stove until the chimney gets cleaned on the 14th ....

Hubby has this attachment for his drill and it cleans out the chimney very well. Cheaper too!

Yes that's amazing, @Nomadicus. I never thought you could keep one alive that long.

Whenever I see this thread

Granny's gone and done it again​

I smiled to myself and thinking what has Granny done again?

You never know with her!

No doubt. But my DH is very reluctant to get up on the roof. He's not even crazy about cleaning the gutters, tbh. He's not lazy. He's pushing 70, I don't blame him. Who wants to fall at his age?

I got a damn nose bleed. Got blood all over my favorite jacket.

Soak the jacket in warm salty water. Then scrub it some. Works great!

Hi Cap! How are you feeling? Today I had a short Convo with a man at the gas station. After breaking the ice he started flirting with my old ask! hahaha I cut that Convo short. I mean, just because I rub a mans bare arm he thinks its open season.
