Faithful flock
I'm Back!
Hey everyone, I've been MIA for a while now, thanks to school and the whirlwind of teenage life. It's been a crazy few years, but I'm excited to reconnect with all of you! I might not be as active as I used to be, but I'm thrilled to be here again!

Flock Update!
Everyone in the flock is thriving! I'll share photos soon, but the chickens are all healthy, lively, and as entertaining as ever.

Has anyone seen anything like this??
It happened literally overnight.
It’s not mud.
Is it developing gout??

Well … it was mud!!
I don’t know how because the pen is pretty dry. Must’ve dug in a wooded area last evening and it dried overnight. A bear to get off!!

I figured I would update on why I have been off for so long. I had a family emergency that required me to fly last minute across the country. While I was gone the coop door flew open due to extreme high winds and the person watching my ducks did not find it until it was too late. My Hookbill stock was wiped out with only a pair surviving. I may get back into breeding them again, but for now I have retired my pair.

Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear that! I know that was years of work! and the heartache... I hope your family emergency at least had a favorable resolution. Sending you supportive thoughts.

It’s getting better I guess is the best way to describe it. My sister was in an accident and when she woke up she had complete amnesia. She could not remember anything except that I was her sister. She didn’t recognize anyone who was there at the hospital including her boyfriend, my parents, my other sisters, friends… which is why I had to go immediately without any planning here on the farm.

Then of course a crazy storm blew in when I was gone. It was bad enough that the door frame even had to be fixed. This wasn’t some little coop door either it was an actual steel man door. The whole situation was beyond weird and like something out of a movie, but my sister is back to as normal as she could be after that and I have made peace with the fact that I had no control over the situation.
