Had a good and bad day and need to vent, first of it was a glorious day here in the northeast. hit 70 with brilliant sunshine. I got a call from Fastenal for my new tiller so I left work early to go get it, how much better can it get nice day and a new toy. got home and played around for a bit when I hear the wife screaming at the top of her lungs, I look around the barn and here goes two dogs with one of my chickens!!!! I took of after them but to late. come to find out the neighbors about two blocks away told their daughter to take care of the dogs so she let them out without closing their gate and off they went. It was an accident and the dogs aren't mean but it still sucks, and now I have to tell my daughter where our little rooster went. the wife is still ranting about those dogs, and I cant seem to make her see reason. we have lost chickens to our own dogs and they have gotten out and gone into his yard, an accident is an accident as long as it doesn't happen again I am ok.
Ok I am done now !! I do feel better.
