One of my favorite things about having chickens is getting to throw coming out parties! Of course the chickens aren’t nearly as into it as I am but for me…its a highlight! You see when I bring home my adorable little chickies they are kept safely tucked away in a (mostly) varmint proof pen until…
I’m not sure if it is quite right to publish recipes for chicken on a site that serves to honor, love and cherish chickens. On the other hand I honor, love and cherish Chicken Salad. So, we just won’t worry about offending the flock, they can’t read anyway. Chicken Salad is a funny thing, everyone seems…
Let’s play a game in my garden called “I spy the onions” Here, here are the onions! I figured since my onion crop was about to be drowned in a sea of weeds I better go ahead and pull them while I could still find them…. Its a good thing God is in charge of growing…
I want you to meet the flock, my reason for being a ‘wicked chicken’, cause it takes a wicked chicken to protect the whole group. So over the next few weeks you will get to meet all the girls. But first of all….top leader, main man, rooster for the ages, lover of hens bantam and standard alike,…

I went to Sam’s last week because I needed butter, coffee and chocolate among other things but these were top priority.

Spring time never fails to show off the beauty of nature, the wonder of re-birth, new birth, reviving mind and body with flowers, cute babies and warm weather. It’s the cute babies I want to focus on. For example this cute baby showed up at work the other day. A lady found it in her…
The road goes on forever and the party never ends….. …it’s just the recovery time increases as you age. Significantly increases. Increases so significantly it may very well end the party. But the road……it definitely goes on forever. Party on people and have a great weekend!
The past 2 days in Maydelle, Texas we have received an unholy amount of rain. The first day we got 4 inches, the second day I think we got at least 3 more but I can’t be sure because when we had all that crazy cold weather in January my rain gauge cracked at the 4 inch…
This poem is for all those who have ever loved and lost…….a chicken. Who have lost a chicken to a raccoon, hawk, skunk, opossum, fox, bobcat, snake, owl, mink, stray dog, family dog, neighbors dog or simply an unnamed creature of the night…… Oh, my chickens how I love thee though every creature wants to…
