Haha omg the knees. Nobody told us about the knees and getting up and down. I need some kind of winch mechanism lol
Shame about the chickens but I guess the fox has got to eat to?
I bet that egg tastes great. We have a chicken farm down the road so we can get fresh eggs and they are so much better than the supermarket stuff.
You could use a little selfie stick with a spoon on the end to get at your egg? #oldtimers
I have a kind of trowel that has hook like fingers at the end to bring the egg out.
Still it is the knees that are the problem.
Yes, I do not want to lose her so she is staying inside the coop for now and I can still have an egg a day.
But the fox took such little chicks. Heartbreaking. They didn't even have names yet they were so indistinguishable.
Lee's 2 sisters were attacked by stray hunting dogs and just left in the yard. Now that was really bad as no one got a meal out of them.
That really is tragic and pointless. Why would someone train a dog to do that. Some people?
Tragic indeed.
The police caught one of the dogs. It had gotten away from its hookup. The owner called me to apologize and was really sorry but what can you do. The dog was following its instincts.
In the meantime our dog was dying so we had a grave dug for her in case she didn't make it through the winter and the 2 chicks now lay there, along with the parts of the last 3 chicks that the fox got. We will make a flower bed over it and pour the dog's ashes over it.
