Chickens and ducks always greet the day with such glee. They never saw a day they didn’t like!

    My chickens gang up in the coop until I open the door. Then there’s the mad rush out into the yard! I look out the coop window and see a sea of ten fluffy butts happily digging and scratching in their leaves. They make my day…they are always glad to see me.

    So true, so true! I recently photographed my own hens and ducks running out into the grass. A few of those photos are on my blog right now (go ahead, click it!). I only have one duck, a white one named Ari Duckass (named after someone I know), so you’ll see her pal-ing around with the hens. They really are jewels in the grass!

    My chickens used to love doing the same thing as soon as I’d open the door to thier coop. Now they’re afraid for thier lives since we got our little dinky donkey who want’s to ‘pile drive’ them into the dirt! Just when I think everything is going to be ok and there is peace in the barnyard….I hear chickens squawking and when I look I see chickens running…feathers flying and a mad little donkey hot on thier tail!!!! So…we are now preparing fences to move the donkey to another pasture and shelter so my poor little chickens can live and hunt and peck in peace again. No wonder my daily egg count has dropped!!! :cry: :hungry2: (pitchfork!)

    I miss having chickens. I guess should just enjoy the one’s the mayor lets run free in the neighborhood.

    A good philosophy on life…to never meet a day one doesn’t like!

    Just like Claudia, here in the TX Hill Country it’s been drizzling all night and all day…My ducks always loved it and they were scooching around in the mud and puddles with their beaks.

The Slanted Little House

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....
