Understandable, I cut up a watermelon and a honeydew melon and may have left a little more than needed on all the outsides because I knew I'd give them to the chickens. I have been lucky that I haven't had an aggressive chicken yet. But I haven't had anything fancy I guess. Silkies look rediculous so I've always wanted one, but I've heard they can have an attitude. I may end up with some denomination of Eater egger, Plymouth Rock mix soon enough, which I'm curious what color the eggs would be, or what it would look like. But the rooster is now 6 months old, he reminds us at 4:45am every morning now 🙄

They have been fun.. those 3 stick together. We call them the weird sisters, not sure how it started. But their poofy cheeks probably have something to do with it. They are cute though, and I love their feather patterns. My spouses father swears their eggs taste better than the rest.

Feather patterns for those unawares

Can't wait to hear how the words "Free Palestine", asking for the freeing of semites, is anti semetic. UCLA should counter sue by scale of their campus to the U.S. for antisemitism towards Palestinians.

419 acre campus, 2.26 billion acres Some quick math puts that lawsuit at $5,000,000,000,000,000+ Hmmm... Where did they get their billion dollar number from?

More than 5 quadrillion dollars to scale that lawsuit, it's like Dr. Evil numbers

It's not owned or operated by meta as far as I know? Where did you see that

They are great birds. Really calm, maybe even to calm at times. I was worried when my Australian shepherd ran outside when I wasn't there and got into the fenced area where I had the chickens. Was only 4ft so he just leaped over. Went out there and he was just laying in the middle of their area and they were just clucking around him. The dog happy to know they were herded, and them not caring at all that he was there.

Never worried after that.

I haven't cracked it yet, but probably a double yolk. We have 12 hens 1 rooster(got sexed wrong)

3 Plymouth Rocks

3 White Plymouth rocks (the rooster is one of these)

3 Easter eggers (the blue/green eggs like the 1 above)

1 Rhode Island Red

1 Australorpe (I think)

1 Golden Comet

1 unknown, maybe Barnevelder? (The Golden Comet Goldie we call her was broody for a 2 months, so I got a singular brown chicken to put under her in the middle of the night). Local feed and seed and nothing had labels.

It's the Rhode Island that lays those giant ones.

I used to have a few more of them when I lived in Florida, but they never laid eggs this big, but always good sized Brown eggs

Tiny egg for scale. The Blueish egg is 61g

The same thing they've been doing. The U.S. isn't supporting Ukraine nearly as much as people make it out to be. All we did was spend money on U.S. contracts, and send mostly old munitions. The majority of all the aid ever going anywhere was blocke/halted. Of $180b that was supposed to be sent beteen 2022-2024, $100 billion still has not arrived. Trump supported Russia from the start, and legislature held off everything they could waiting for him. And a large amount of the population apparently wanted Russia to expand as well.

I haven't looked at what film cameras cost but $16 for anything these days seems nice. I think I would get more than $16 worth of enjoyment out of it. Now the hard part is going to be finding Eckerds /s

There shouldn't be, but I also think there shouldn't be doctors between people and a lot of medication. I shouldn't need a prescription for flea/tick/worm medication for a pet, nor should I need a prescription to pick up amoxicillin. They shouldn't need to keep ID's and databases of when you pick up Mucinex D. If I get a soar throat, sinus pressure, and my ear starts hurting really bad once a year around the same time I usually know it's because I have allergies and don't take daily allergy pills. So every other year or so I have to go get a prescription for the same thing. They used to give me amoxicillin and a zpack. Aparently they were giving those out to much so now it's just Mucinex D I use. The LLMs will be a problem, but they are just another problem being thrown into a building that's already falling down.

Yeah, I always wonder when people were bullshitting about Texas leaving the union how they expect they would factor in the National debt. Like sure you can leave if you if pay $100,000+ per person who lives in your state, and we remove all our assets and draw up trade deals that leave you with no ability to acquire anything. I mean hell, at least California could trade with Canada, Mexico, and the EU. Texas was anti Mexico, a far stretch from Canada but wouldn't be able to ship through the U.S. likely, and would get worse trade deals with the EU do to the policies they were fighting for.

They don't trust China, so their only possible ally would have been Russia, which the U.S. wouldn't allow Russia to be that close, or the best case scenario is Texas got the Cuba treatment, worse case would be hard to imagine.
