I was a lot more active in Wisconsin than usual.
The ducks were raping the hens, chased those ducks a lot. My little grandson was upset because one hen disappeared. I told him she probably found a home without ducks, and stayed there. Believe it or not, that is exactly what happened! The woman brought her home the evening before my other daughter returned. My other daughter and son moved the hens nests out and we locked up the ducks. My daughter found a duck rescue that is going to take them. I told her 2 male ducks and 3 hens together and that’s what happens.

I can just visualize you out there chasing those dastardly ducks around.

Oh my 😳, what an adventure!. Glad your daughter found a rescue!

Back when pyrs chased the chickens, we lost one and thought it was gone forever… turns out it had run to our neighbors house and had made a nice little home in her garage behind her water heater! She even had laid a couple of eggs back there 😂

No wonder you’re in pain! Chasing wayward birds all over the place will take a toll on a girl!

Birds are a funny lot. I think I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that the little one here (Audrey 8 yrs old) rescued a baby Oriole from the dog’s mouth. Well, she’s been faithfully feeding it mealworms, peanut butter, grape jelly, water, and the thing sticks to her like mad. It’s so funny. Travel around on her shoulder, even outside. The other night my daughter and sil were peeking in on the sleeping kids before retiring for the night.....Audrey was sound asleep on her back, and the Oriole was sleeping on her forehead lol. She “forgot” to close the cage door for the night.

Hope you can take it easy for a few days now and the aches and pains subside. Glad you had a good trip, though, other than the dastardly ducks!
