Dispatches from the Co-Prosperity Sphere

You keep whinging because we don't call enough. For heaven's sake, stop! We can't call because we're busy. Just look at what we're doing. Does it look like we have the time to sleep? Eat? Breathe? Let alone communication with the outside world! We're building empires! We're winning hearts and minds! We're forging ahead, confronting our demons, marching victoriously toward a grand and glorious new era! And we're doing it all from the comfort of the backyard hammock.

Hefty Chickens

The chickens are now about 6 weeks old. They've got most of their feathers, and they have been surviving chilly nights with the coop interior at about 45 degrees. They're eager to get out of the coop every morning. Last night, I fed a few out of my hand as I was putting them away for the night, and I picked a couple up. Man, those chickens are getting big. A month and a half ago, they each weighed less than an egg. Now, the mostly white araucana feels like he weighs 3 pounds. Da. Hang.
