@Patty81 I usually boil my chicken breasts for 12-15 minutes. Than pull it apart and add Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce. Than put it on toast with a slice of cheese.
@4meAndyou She is so sweet, just like a good dog. She is at Barn Buddies Rescue in Las Vegas.
I volunteer there, its a mile from my house. People dump animals there all the time. They have 100's. Goats, chickens, pigs, llamas, ducks, rabbits, horses, ponies, peacocks etc. I take care of their gates, and doors.
@4meAndyou Lotta love for animals. My wife and I have lost count of the animals we have had over the last 30 years. We bought a rural horse property, just so we could help more animals.
@PunkRockSuperStar When I was little and lived on the farm I’d walk around the chickens (we had a lot) and imitate their sounds and they’d turn their heads to see where that chicken was at that was doing it. I got really good at it. I pranked my sister one time when we were walking in the woods near our house by doing it, was walking behind her. She kept saying “Where is that chicken, I don’t see it?”
@cherokeepatti @PunkRockSuperStar There ya go, PunkRockSuperStar. The chickens will quickly remove the source of your distress. Just picture a nice long stringy worm...dangling from a chicken's beak....schlurp! schlurp!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
@CrazyMusicLover I have seen them. Chickens have a way of fertilizing the lawns…chicken manure is really strong. I had a garden where chicken pens had been previously and I grew some monster sized squash etc. I didn’t need to put fertilizer on that garden.
@cherokeepatti This is what normally a lawn looks like where poultry is kept here. But maybe in the spring when grass is fresh and there's enough moisture, it can grow that lush and long.
Or this. Lots of plants (weeds) and flowers, daisies, dandelions, clovers..
@CrazyMusicLover When you have a lot of them it can look like that. Let them out for a couple hours and just a few of them probably wouldn’t look that way. And that’s a fenced in chicken yard.
@icedsky yes it is. But I love to hear chickens making their little noises when they are searching for bugs and listening to them cackle when they lay eggs. Someone in our neighborhood has backyard chickens and it makes me happy when I hear that.
@DogMan Oh we had long droughts for two years along with record-setting heat waves here over a decade ago. I never craved the color green so much in my life after seeing the landscape turn brown in the summer. Got the sun room enclosed and I painted the ceiling rafters a natural green color so I could see it in the summer and winter when I went out there and sat down. I painted my shed the same color too.
@cherokeepatti Sounds like a nice place Patti. I'm lucky to live on a well, It would cost a fortune to water all my trees and plants on city water. I planted 35 trees over the years, along with vines, bushes, and grass for the dogs. Most of my trees are positioned for shade from the brutal Las Vegas summer sun.
