Mo's little hens

Several weeks ago, Cindy's friend Mo discovered that he needed to find a new home for his four little Golden Comet hens - and we were glad to have them join our Sanctuary House flock!

Although they are still small, they have joined the other hens in our chicken yard, and except that they do not like to go into the coop at night, they are quite happy here. At this point, I believe they think we are playing a game when it's time to go into the coop - they watch all of the other hens go in, and then insist that I chase and catch them one by one. . . or perhaps they just think that comets should circle around and around before settling in for the night.




As of this morning, they have names reminiscent of their original person: Monica, Mona, Mora, and Molly

Wish List Wednesday

Yes, here we are to Wednesday again, the best day for wishes, so Sister Mary asked me to write about our  Wish List . Canned cat food is right at the top of things we really need this week, and then paper towels, and horse treats (horse treats are not really a NEED, but the horses think they are, and we like to keep them happy!). Thank you for thinking of us. Love, Gus PS Sister Mary did not give me a puzzle for this message . . . please let us know if you want to have puzzles in the blog - I think they are a fun break to my reading and writing and sleeping and eating and playing, but I wonder if anyone else likes them too?

Baby chicks and diamonds in the tree

Our Board member Aimee Lauer brought four little chicks this morning - they were rescued from Craig's List. As far as we can tell, two Easter Eggers and two Legbars. This weekend is a strange mixture of weather - rain, wind, and sometimes moments of sun. The  sunlight in the tree  this morning made the wet leaves and branches look as though they were decorated with diamonds. We are hoping and praying that Hurricane Florence will miraculously weaken, although current maps show East Coast landfall and predictions are that the storm may be a category 4. Stay tuned . . .
