Better Not Take Emma's Yogurt Away

I can tell by this look Emma gets in her beady bird eyes that she is going to attack. It usually happens when she wants something.

I Almost Forgot About Halloween

With all of my Christmas decorating (more to come this weekend ...muahahaha) I decided I should carve my pumkins. It is probably a little too early for that too, but I wanted to get some seeds to plant in Arizona to see if they will grow. I bought these pumpkins at the 99 cent only store for ONLY 99 cents each !! They had more seeds in them than any pumpkins I have ever bought. So I will be planting, cooking and eating some pumpkin seeds this weekend.

Now all I have to do is decide which chicken or chicken's to bring along.

Back to Blogger

Last night I deactivated my Facebook. I was addicted and tired of it. Who would really care that I was checking into "K & K's River Ranch" a page I had made for the AZ house or that Henrietta is laying an egg. Most importantly I didnt care that a girl from higschool felt sick or someone brought their lunch to work today. It was starting to seem like people are in a competition for the most "likes" and replies. Well, I quit ....for now. I know mylife is a bit more interesting thsn all of that.

So I am back to my blog boring people with probably the same pictures I would on Facebook but hopefully without drama. I missed my blog.

Some Baby Emma Pics

Well she really isnt a baby anymore but she sure was cute .......




Meep Meep Playing Army Man

I found Meep Meep hiding in a hole ..I assumed he was trying to suprise attack Billy ... a few days later Billy plucked all the feathers out of Meep Meeps head and butt while we went to Yogurtland. I felt so bad when I got home I mixed my left over yogurt with chicken antibiotics so Meep Meep could have some and not get an infection ... a week or so later Kevin saw my left overs and ate them ...

A Bald Meep Meep

Here is a picture of Meep Meep after Billy the rooster pulled all of the feathers out of his head ..they are finally growing back.

Mia the Chicken Girl or Boy ?

Emma

Family friends were so nice to bring me over a little chick from their farm. SHE is going to grow up to be like "Red" a Rhode Island Red. She is super cute and super whiney like all baby chickens. All of the other chicks are doing fine ..except Bill who is becoming very naughty. Since he has started crowing I leave him in the garage at night and sometime when I go to get him out he bites me, he bites poor Mia and she runs from him, and he has started fighting with Meep Meep. I read an article that said chickens have strong cognitive behavioural skills so Im trying to train him to be a better chicken. We will see. Here is a cute clip of Emma ...doing chicken things in the mirror.

Meep Meep's First Bicycle Ride

So today we went to KMART to get a basket for my bike. I told Kevin I wanted it for Molly because we all know how embarassed he gets about the chicken.
Meep meep Loved it ..I think ...he made his "meep meep meep meep" noise the whole time while bobbing his head up and down.

Photogenic Chicks

I sware chickens have to be the most photogenic animals. They stay still and pose everytime I do a photo session with them -- yes a photo session. hee hee




Attack of the Meep Meep

Last weekend I went outside to visit my beloved Meep Meep when he attacked me. Like ran after me and tried jumping on me digging his little nails through my wonderful fuzzy green new pajamas leaving a small cut on my leg. Later that day I walked outside and everything was fine. So today I did a test with the green jammies and Meep Meep attacked them. Either he does not like the color green or the BIG owl eyes scare him.

Red Doesn't Know what to Think

The little chicks which I am still not sure of what they are ... are so much smaller than the older chickens.

The "breeder" refers to them as "mini chickens" and if googled they come up a "Serama's" but I am still a little unsure.

For my class that I am taking we had an extra credit assignment to send the teacher a link to a music recording from the 1920's. So of course I googled billboard music of the 1920's since I had no idea of any artists and after listening to a few I found one that for some reason makes me feel very emotional ..I tried to look online and see if I could find what it is about but havent been able to find anything.

Mia & Bella Together at Last

Ok -- well the guy said they are "sister's" but I can tell from the new chicks comb and feathers that she is a few weeks older, and the ONLY thing that cincerns me is that it is more red than Mia's almost white one. One of the things the internet says about distinguishing a rooster from a hen as a chick is the color of the comb, but who knows it could be a tale.

Mia Bella

The new baby chic will be Mia and her SISTER that will be getting here on Friday will be Bella. I am so excited because Mia is so lonely and too friendly. Im afraid when she get's out into the chicken world she will be sad and confused with those big fat chickens Henrietta and Red.

This is Mia Sleeping



Sorry Im Obsessed this is a video ..you can hear her little chirp chirps while sleeping ..little baby chicks are so cute !
