Chickens are good for keeping the ticks and chiggers down around the house.. Plus all the eggs you'll ever eat and you don't have to go rounding them up at night.. they all head into the coop on their own..Just have to remember to lock the door on the coop every night to keep the varmints out..

But with all the dogs and cats there isn't much of a varmint problem..

you'd think with all the cats and dogs running around and the chickens out in the open that you'd have a bunch of dead chickens..

The dogs know better than to mess with the chickens and the cats pretty much grow up with the chickens already there..

It's kind of like our cattle dogs.. you have them out there living with the cattle and they grow up thinking they are part of the cattle and protect their own.. So if a coyote or mountain lion comes along they'll end up going and finding another meal vs risking getting hurt dealing with a pack of dogs..

Yeah, apparently in another thread the whole flame-thrower/eat a cat thing was described as being in earnest.

Take everything with a grain of salt (and I do not mean seasoning the dead cat) that you read here, trolling or otherwise, but taking that at face value plus other posts...

Well, it is about time to do a tally report in "peeves".

This is Flippie, my Dutch Bantham. Born on April 1, 2013, laid her first egg on February 2, 2014. Below, at the fertile age of 2, June 2015:

Her last, pre-menopausal egg was birthed last summer, July 6:

It had no yolk:

But it was delicious nonetheless:

Currently retired, enjoying the company of a flock of Homo sapiens in quarantine.
