Full Moon Craziness

Full moon antics are always funny. Onyx was up in a tree and looking like she was stuck, but she wasn’t. The baby turken chick is feral and just runs around like crazy in and out of the fence. The bigger chick in the shop tries to escape. Noma was trying to let the pigs out. Yeller was mad at Ursula for being outside and was trying to fight with her. Prada was bullying Tinkerbelle. One of the chickens was hiding up on a shelf behind the charcoal which is just so weird. Every full moon there is weird stuff like this going on. 


Cold Front

It Is the end of October and it is getting cold. I could see the clouds and the cold front coming in. It is just crazy to see when things are changing. You can feel it in the air. Change is inevitable, might as well welcome it. 


Tinkerbelle/Prada

I knew Prada was bullying Tinkerbelle, but I had no idea how bad it was. There was a gate that kept getting opened and I could not figure out why. I finally saw what was going on. Tinkerbelle was wedging herself behind that gate and stay there so Prada could not get to her. I came home one evening and Prada was banging on that gate to try to get to Tinkerbelle. It was awful to watch. We will be getting Tinkerbelle out of there as soon as we get Louie fixed. Poor Tinkerbelle. 



Frog Rescue

I found a frog slowly hopping around. I was shocked with the weather getting colder. I caught the frog and he was so cold to the touch. It is about time for it to go hibernate somewhere for sure. I rescued it from the cats or the chickens one. I put him somewhere else to get away from them before it was too late. I hope it worked. 


Sad News

I have sad news. I came home and one of the baby turkens was missing. Those babies would run around in and out of the fence and do whatever they want. They were pretty feral. I thought something must have gotten one of them. Well, I did find the baby and the baby was deceased. I was so heartbroken. I was hoping both of them would make it since there were only two of them. I am just so sad over the whole thing. This is the worst part about hatching babies. We can try again another time. So far the other one is doing okay. 


Turkens

Well, I got a shock. The weather is changing since it is that time of year. I noticed the turkens are actually growing feathers on their necks now. They look funnier than they did before when their necks were naked. They sure make my heart happy though. They look funny anyway you look at them, but right now, they are a little extra funny looking. I just love them. 


Makeshift Feather Hen

I did put the makeshift feather hen together for the babies. They did use it for what it was meant for, for a minute and then they did not use it that way anymore. All 3 of the babies are using the feathers for whatever they want though, so it was not a waste of time which makes me feel better.
