Never a Dull Moment

There is never a dull moment around here. The donkeys need hay and they almost attacked me to get to the feed I had in my hand. I ended up having to dump out some feed for them. Even Noma was chasing me, which never happens. That was such a crazy moment, one I would not want to repeat for sure. That was a little scary. I know they were not trying to hurt me, they just wanted food. 

Baby Turken

The baby Turken is growing up. She is able to get up in the laying boxes. I am not sure how that happens, but I saw it with my own two eyes. I wish I had seen how she got up there. I am also hoping it is a she. They sure do grow up fast. I am glad she has made it this far. She is still going in and out of the fence often which makes me crazy. 

Sick Chicken

We Have another sick chicken thanks to the weather. I mean, there is not much I can do about that. That poor chicken is wheezing so loud I can hear it without being close. I know that chicken is miserable. I am sure she will be okay. I will go get her some meds. You know, when you have a full plate of things going on, it just seems more gets piled on, but things must be handled. 

Rain

We have had some rain coming in. It has been cold rain since it is the end of October. We sure need it, but it is cold to be out in it. The animals all have shelters for this very reason and I am grateful for it. I have been feeding the goats in their shelters. They are spoiled. Ronnie is in the hospital at this moment, so I am getting it done as best as I can. Life sure can give you some twists and turns you would not expect, but life keeps moving on and you have to keep moving with it. 

Losing it

I have lost 2 chickens this week and have no idea what happened to them and I don’t like to think about it. Well, I went out to lock up the coop and saw two more were missing. My heart dropped. I had seen them when I fed in the evening. So, I started searching for them. I’m not sure if this is another full moon thing, but they were roosting somewhere else and were totally fine. One of them was in a weird spot alone on top of the goat shelter, but she was fine. I thought I was about to lose my mind. 

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.
