Morning all.
Foggy and 35 here this morning, supposed to clear out and hit 60 later. We'll see.
Our new hen has been introduced to the others now for two days. So far, so good. One of our older (read "dominant") hens tried to pick on her, but we have the new one in the 4x8' enclosed run off the side of the coop, so no fights came of it. The seven other hens seem to pretty much ignore her. We're still keeping her inside at night, though.
Came real close to getting my truck t-boned yesterday by some guy who was driving a full size creeper van around the neighborhood at 40mph. We're talking White Ford full size van, tires squealing around corners. All he was missing was a "free candy" sign. Turned on the scanner and heard that local LE was looking for a white van that almost went head-on with a fire truck by cutting a blind corner on the highway. Didn't have phone with me at the time, so didn't report. Got home in time to see him still in the neighborhood, turning around and leaving rubber in the undersheriff's driveway. Before I turned the truck off, I heard him on the radio call the other deputy down the street, who went and blocked the only way out. I stopped listening after that.
