Chickens.

This morning we had about 67 chirping chicks arive at our house early in the morning. Needless to say we where sort of unprepared for this invasion of two legged things. However we managed to recover from this quick blow and fought back by dipping there beaks in water, and dumping
ridiculously large amounts of chick food in quartered juice containers. But much to our dismay two small youngsters became casualties, murdered by there own kind. Chickens are sort of unusual in the fact that they kill there wounded. I have never seen this in any other type of beast. It must have something to do with their pea size brains. Hmmm....

When we where going to bury the two dead chicks yesterday. I heard that Penny flushs her dead fish down the toilet. I gave it a thought but I don't think thats the best way to get rid of them.

And they don't get any more attractive as they get older, for that matter. We used to have meat birds when I was young as well. Oh how cunning they look when you first get them! And how how ready you are to eat them by the time they are grown!

ps- I am a friend of Penny
