It's a shame that the world is full of such scammers... maybe I should start watermarking my photos, too. 🤔

Great work, that sounds like a very interesting story.

Yeah, shame that. I need to look at whether Gimp has a simple watermarking too, I hadn't really thought much about it. Photoscape is relatively simple though. Just put your text and make it faint.

Thanks on that. What will be odd about the story is that there will be no dialogue, which is something I enjoy writing, but my contact doesn't want that. So... coming soon, anyway.

Chickens!!!!! Your girls will be so happy! I have great memories of them sitting in my yard hanging out with all my birds. I will keep my fingers crossed on the land thing. That would be amazing for all of you!

Yes, it really would be amazing. My lovely husband has very little farming experience, so it's going to be a bit of a baptism by fire for him.

I grew up with chickens. It will be great if the girls can too. We went looking for chicks to gawk at today, but the only place that has them in yet was sold out (they had some very cute toy chicks in one of their cages, lol.)

When we get to buy some, I hope the girls choose the prettiest, least useful birds this time because once we have our land, anything that gets added will have to be useful!

Oh, just ordered my Standard of Perfection - to replace my 1983 one, lol.

I can always mail you a batch of chicks when you're ready! They will be mutts, and therefore useful and not particularly pretty. I so hope your girls can have some babies of their own. They seemed so taken by them when they were here.

Thanks, yeah, I'll think about that after we get moved/settled.

Mostly, I'm probably going to keep purebreds so that I can sell hatching eggs - and chicks to the 4Hers. But it is always nice to have some mutts running around free range.

Besides what the girls get this year, I plan to order Icelandic hatching eggs pretty quickly.

Icelandic hatching eggs?????? I might need some of those! Our favorite vet went to Iceland with his son a couple of years ago and came home and bought an Icelandic horse. If I got some Icelandic chickens he would love me forever.

ebay - about $4/egg.
Are you talking about our common friend vet? That's so cool!

I went to Iceland many years ago - amazing place.
