Reflecting Back~Our Beginning

August 5, 2011

I received a call from the post office around 2pm. They had left a message at my home and also on my cell phone. The cell phone message was from a very concerned postal worker. Apparently, my peeping package had arrived and it was making them very nervous. I suppose the Osterville post office does…

The Inevitable

February 15, 2011

When is a rooster mean? I am not sure that it is entirely easy to draw a line in black and white. How much does nature and hormones play in their actions? Can a rooster suddenly turn mean? I guess I have been thinking about these things lately because Chocolate, for better or worse, is…

And then there were 5

October 13, 2010

In the early days, our favorite little chicken was Peanut. Peanut was always so curious; the first to come to us, discover the newest addition placed into his tiny 2’x2′ world. Peanut always needed more care than the others in the beginning too. Peanut was the one that I wasn’t sure would survive. Peanut seemed…
