I haven't been posting lately, but I promise, I have a good excuse. Its finals week. I know it has been a long time since I was in college, but I don't remember it being like this. Finals week is more like finals month. As of right now I only have one more test to take though, and then I am done.....until summer starts!
Even though it is finals week (month) life goes on. The chickens are getting big, still not full size though.
They are, however, big enough to have attracted a hawk. I consulted everyone I could think of, I went to every website.....all the answers said that I basically couldn't do anything about it except shoot the hawk. I am not going to shoot a hawk. I also am not going to let the hawk eat my chickens, one by one. My solution was to go down to the local sporting goods store and pick up a BB gun. Unfourtunatly all fake guns now look like real guns, and I am not going to sit in my back yard with something that looks like a hand gun, and shoot at something that my neighbors probably can not see. My only option was to get a neon green "Zombie Purge" air-soft gun. It is about the stupidest looking thing I have ever seen, but it works great!
It makes a nice loud POP when fired and shoots little plastic hollow beads that really don't hurt much. The chickens will be safe!
