end of week stuff

With Senior seemingly working 1,000 per week, things around the estate for me have been a bit busy. Finally the weather here has turned warmer, and no rain since Thursday. It is nice to have everything dry out.

I went out to the coop on Friday and one of my Golden Sex Links jumped up beside me. I did not think anything of it until .I saw her back ( warning picture is gruesome) My dominate Rhode Island Red Hen, jumped on her, and once blood was drawn it was a coop frenzy. I gently picked her up, flushed her back with warm water, and gently rubbed some antibiotics in to it. Then I placed her in isolation to heal.
As for the Red, well she went in to chicken jail for a bit, and now is listed for sale on craigslist.

I have always thought that birds were decedents of dinosaurs, and now I am a firm believer..

 Senior was at work all day yesterday so the boys and I got out in the yard, and took advantage of the beautiful day. First it was planting some spring seeds. my buddy Sandy sent us some sunflowers, and the boys wanted to start a batch. I like harvesting them for bird seed and roasting....

There was a nice steady breeze so after planting seeds we did some kite flying. NW got this one with money my sister had sent him...

Later in the afternoon Senior came home, and wanted to go get a new tractor battery for his dads ole farm-all. This trip took us in to Tractor Supply..We went in for a battery and some tomato seeds, and came out with 6 new Black Austrolop Chicks....never did get the battery or seeds....lol
I guess Senior will need to build a new addition to the coop...

Did remember to turn clocks forward last night, and now I am feeling it...really do hate these silly time changes. God has blessed with more beautiful weather today, Senior is off and I hope we get out and take advantage of it. Happy Sunday !!!
