Hi everyone...............hugs to you all. way too tired to post but
wanted to say hi:Wave-Hello:

lol, hubby FLOODED them out... and they just couldn't seem to find an ark to save themselves...

left the coop open, and the older chickens are having a party, cleaning up the piles and piles of ant eggs.

:D:):D

naw, I save *that* song for when the big ol' swarms of Army Ants come marching through.

there's about a dozen different kinds of ants here (Belize has more variety and amount of bugs than the ENTIRE US and Canada combined, true!)

these ones were small brown garden-variety ants, just building a nest under the chicken's nursery coop.

chickens usually get out of the way of such things, or stand off to the side, and have a gobble-fest, munching party...

but at night, the leetle cheekies can't see, and they couldn't get to sleep, as the ants were munching on chicken feet, which led to the babies interrupting my enjoyment of John McCain's concession speech, LOL !!

:p:o:p

too funny, true!

on the way home from market Tuesday, I was explaining Highlights, and Goofus and Gallant to my husband, who was raised in Europe.

can't remember why it came up, think I called our tailgater a GOOFUS, and he inquired if I meant DOOFUS, so I had to describe that cultural phenomenon.

Goofus eats candy before bedtime, Gallant carefully brushes his teeth!

Goofus is mean to animals, Gallant tends them diligently!

Goofus is a careless weasel, Gallant is a good Boy Scout.

:D

oh, and a DOZEN chickies have just hatched in the incubator... methinks Klaus (my black rooster) has been a BUSY boy, looks like most of the beebies are dark.

:D

My younger ones still read Highlights.:) and they still have goofus
and gallent!
