Chance is walking, babbling and eating me out of house and home just like the other munchkins. I have been starting to upload more videos of them on youtube, they are so funny I have to share.
This Sunday Treyton and Dominic have their birthdays and I'm super excited, but poor lil Dommy will be at his fathers so I wont be able to give him his midnight birthday kiss. He is turning 3 and Trey is turning 7 already... time is flying. We are planning a sleepover party for Trey along with a bonfire and mini pizzas. He is super excited. I'll miss Dominic, but get to see him Sunday night on his special day. This is his first birthday without mommy.
My chickens are doing great, but 'Lucky' isnt so lucky anymore, she was picked up by a red-tailed hawk and carried over to the neighbours where she was disemboweled :( I found her sibling whom which she was hatched with, 'FluffyButt' torn apart beside our porch, if my kids werent watching along with my husband, I would have bawled my eyes out. The hawk also made my last silkie chicken disappear.
Now I have baby chickens, about 3 weeks old in my livingroom, they are growing quick and should be good to go outside in a few weeks. They are from my Jersey Giant hens and my barred rock rooster.
I have 4 white turkey poults on my step in a cage along with my favourite chickens, the Chanteclers, they are a heritage breed of Canada and I had been looking everywhere for them. I have a male/female pair.
I'm in the middle of building them a short fence so I can have them beside my porch without roaming free, I dont want to lose anymore. I started the fence yesterday until my neighbour came over with his lawntractor offering to give my dead one a good boost. Once we got the stubborn thing started I didnt want to shut it off and mowed my lawn instead of finishing the fence, until it started to pour and thunder outside. Then I scooped up all the kids, fled them into the house and drove the mower into the shed, and headed to save my lil babe from the winds out of his baby car-swing (I almost forgot he was out there he was so quiet).
I got a bit of a sunburn, and want to get more but the wind is too much today and too chilly to go out without a jacket... but will see shortly when I go get the lil munchkins from the bus.
My 2 iguanas go to their new home this Sat before the party, I'll be glad to see them going to a new home where they can roam and eat like the pigs they are. I had been looking for a home for them for awhile now.
