Well...bad news about the chickens. I found one dead this morning, partly eaten. The others hung around the yard during the day, acting more jumpy than ever. I looked for them this evening and couldn't find them. There was a stray tomcat around today, but I'm doubting a cat could catch and kill a chicken that size. It's a shame that people go out and get chickens, then later they virtually abandon them. But then, too, I've often thought that about dogs and cats, too.
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
Integrity can never be taken. It can only be given, and I wasn't going to give it up to these people. Gary Mowad
