A Hot day – Yay

Glorious, glorious hot day. aac-027

I am going to put a sign on the track.aac-052

If You drive down here into my back yard and complain about the HEAT I will bite my thumb at you!  There. That will show them.

The chickens across the Way .. my official farm name is Kelly Creek Farms… so I call the big barn across the way  – Kelly Creek Barn. Now you will know where I am talking about.  Anyway the chickens Across the Way at the Kelly Creek Barn are now allowed out in the evenings. They are very well behaved chickens and dutifully return to their own barn in the evenings.  Plus they are laying marvellously for the family who lives next to Kelly Creek Barn. The children love to collect the eggs. Unlike the ramshackle bunch I have over here  at the Home Barn. aac-017

Because it was gloriously hot yesterday I let the chickens out in the late afternoon and lo and behold the Roosters swooped in and Ran Off with them. I got  only FIVE chickens back. How I am going to sort this out I do not know.  After dark I took the torch and the dogs and searched every lost chicken  out and every single one of them is Way Up High in the home barn with a rooster by her side. Apparently only the wall flowers returned to their little tin shack. And I have too many roosters or not enough  -if you are wall flower.  Letting them out was an error.  aac-022

Aunty Del has designed a new Halloween mask.  I’m scared!

I hope you all have a lovely day.

  1. Such nice pictures. Aunty Del is adorable! It’s a little after 1pm today & dark as nite w/the rain pouring down. Yucky day here in southeastern Ct. We had our hot days last week-end—–just a tease!

  2. I feel the same way when someone complains about rain in Arizona. The animals are cute as ever, great pics!

  3. You must just have loved the extra unromantic hour or two at the end of the day looking for runaway chickens by torchlight! Hope both the dogs and you let some appropriate language fly into the night air, warm day or not! Oh weather: we are breaking all kinds of temperature records here in the Sydney region: winter a week away and temperature at about 28 C today!!

  4. Rooster runaways….too funny! Naughty hens….lol. Aunti Del is scary looking….or maybe she is just startled scared herself. Good one

  5. Hopefully the errant chooks will come home when they’re hungry… opportuntists taking a romantic spring escape now the weather has warmed up. They will be sorry if you get a cold snap.

  6. Oh sorry, but I can’t help laughing at the chicks running off with the roosters. So glad to see a word at the top of your post that you haven’t used for a long time: HOT. Summer is coming at last.
