Shopping with the children

Clarissa at the mall: Loved the sparkly shoes until we said she had to buy them with her money! She bought a winnie the pooh book, a princess puzzle and lunch at the mall because that is why there is food there!

Taylor: bought all but one season of UFC, three trips to the same store!

Carter: bought himself four things and then bought gifts for Wesley, Clarissa, Grandma Brown, his mom and dad, and Marie!

Faith and Gabbie: Indecisive! But the only ones with money left!

Kielee and Martina: bought everything they wanted and a few gifts.

All and all not to bad, I did lose a couple of them a couple of times, but they were found safe and sound and off we went to the next store!

Our late chickens

Lucy the Red Star, died of natural cause of old age. We will miss her. She had the best personality!

Roni the Rhode Island Red-She was eaten, she would not stop eating eggs, we tried many things to stop her but in the end she was eating 3 eggs a day so we ate her.

Sophie the Red Star- She was egg bound, we tried to save her in vain.

Phil the Faverolle-Her death is still a mystery.

Blackbird the Black Australorp-She was injured and then several other chicken pecked out her flesh around the injury. We separated her and she eventually healed but did not walk very good. She spent most of her time just sitting in the lay box. She was put out of her misery.

Pickles the Barred Rock-She seemed to have some kind of a stroke, she stood for many hours in the same place and stared off into space. She would not eat and only drank for my husband. After a week she was kindly put out of her misery.

Willow, the Leghorn, is no more, she got in the dog pen and was played with to death.

Chicken who stopped by

Mabel the Mottled Java- She came to us from a neighbor, she would allow their other chicken in the coop. She was at the bottom of our pecking order until the new chickens arrived. She would hop the 3 foot fence and not allow the new chickens to eat their own food. She moved to the Jenie Hansen coop in West Haven! She does well there.

Ruby and Rhoda the Rhode Island Reds- Bought from a neighbor. They pecked the flesh out of Blackbird and were aggressive with several of the other hens. They found a new home with a daughter's friend. They do better there at the bottom of the pecking order.
