Pictured here is an Hen on a basket. This is marked Westmoreland, but it was probably made for Rosso or Summit. I’d like $45.00 for it as well. That includes shipping to anywhere in the lower 48 states. No issues found.
I take PayPal.
This is hard to capture its real beauty.

Happy Monday Evening.

I am working on downsizing my Animal Covered Dishes. I am asking $45 each for these lambs. That includes shipping to anywhere in the lower 48 states. I do not find any issues with either one of these. I accept PayPal. But I will consider a personal check. If this isn’t something you are interested in, I ask that you kindly scroll on by. I’ve considered starting another page just for selling these items, but I don’t want the headache of getting enough followers to keep my posts visible. Since this page is established, I have made the decision to list them here.
PINK IS SOLD
Pink is marked Degenhart, but the blue is not marked. I’m almost 100% sure it was made by Degenhart before they added their logo.

Thanks for looking.

We had fun with these great grandsons this weekend. I love these boys to the stars and beyond. So many things I could tell you, but I’ll pick out 2 things. Hollis was watching the chickens from the safety of inside the house. I thought he was genuinely interested in them, which he was from within the house. But I grabbed a handful of peanuts and my plan was to just open the door slightly to toss the peanuts out. I dropped 2 peanuts on the floor within the house, and my Barred Rock girl, Liesel, is pretty pushy. She marched herself right inside to pick up those 2 peanuts I had dropped, and Hollis cried- about 5 seconds. I felt so bad. But otherwise he’s the happiest baby I’ve ever been around.
Flint’s story is well you’ll have to read on to see what it is. Penny, Flint, Hollis and I were outside after dark swinging. Flint let his imagination get carried away. He asked, “what would you do if there was a tiger come into the yard?” I said, he would need to just stare it down, and it would eventually move on. But he said, “no, I’d run to the house and tell Papa to get his gun and come out and shoot the tiger.” Then he said “but by that time you both would have passed away.” No, he didn’t say the tiger would eat us or anything like that- just that Penny and I would pass away. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ Of course we laughed but Penny said “Flint, there would never be a tiger come into this yard.” To which Flint replied “no, maybe not a tiger, but possibly a bobcat, and y’all would still be scared.”
Just a couple snippets into our life this weekend.

Happy Sunday afternoon!

I might get in trouble for posting here. If I do I’ll delete. Abi and her hubby, Sterling with their 2 beautiful boys. (Check out Sterling’s hair. Wow.) And then Flint got in on a smash cake with Hollis, and I thought this picture was so cute of him. And then of course Hollis grabs at everybody’s heartstrings.

Anyway have a good day. Busy day for me.

Happy FlUfFy BuTt Friday. This gal, Journee, definitely has some fluff on her bum and her legs. She’s a Buff Brahma. (Insert- when I proofread this, Brahma showed up as drama. She has no drama in her at all. Lol)
I got up this morning with my feet running. We took Big D to the Vet for his hot spot just to be on the safe side. The vet seemed to think it’s on the way to healing. So he got treated for fleas and caught up on his rabies vaccine. When we take Big D out and about, he is the talk of everyone. The girls at the Vet just love him. The Pit Bull in the car next to us, was barking his head off. Dakota just trotted on by as tho he didn’t see or hear anything. We went to Tractor Supply afterwards. I had wanted to take Big D in with us. But he seemed to be pretty tired. So Chief sat in the truck with him. On the way out, the lady parked next to us said to her hubby, “look at that huge dog.” He returned with, “he looks like a big bear.” I hadn’t even noticed Big D had his big head in the front seat. But I stopped to talk to them about him. I said he was a Great Pyrenees. The lady said they had friends in Missouri with a Pyr, but they didn’t do anything to keep him up.

I should have told this first- the Vet called him Haus which I just loved that. This was a different vet than what we usually see.

I sold a piece of glass (standing rooster). I packed it up and took it to the post office.

I felt tired so I took a little nap. Now onward to a good evening. I hope you’ve have had a fine Friday.

Talk later!

I love this big ol’ dog. Chief took the picture. I was so nervous about whether he was taking a picture or not, I looked toward him instead of at Big D. But he comes to me often, and I give him snuggles and kisses. He’s like a big teddy bear.

It seems like we had a lot to do today. But now it doesn’t seem like it was so much. Just that we had to go out of town to do all the things. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I hope you’ve had a good day. We truly have. I’ll try to post more later, but if I don’t, I’ll talk tomorrow!

Happy Thursday Evening!

One of my little henny Pennys running through to say “Happy Hump Day.” I believe this is Lucy. And I’ve heard that today is National Red head day. If you are red headed, I hope you’re having a spectacular day!

I haven’t done much today. I sold a glass piece from my collection. I packed it up and sent it off. Packing those things up can be a lot of work.
Overall today has been a good day. Chief is at a dental appointment. I hope this works out well for him. He’s having a partial fitted. They have been so slow about getting it to his dentist. I think he had just about lost hope. But he got the call this morning that it had come in. Finally.

I’m off to straighten up just a bit. I’ll catch you later or tomorrow.

Miss Cat is escorting the chickens to the coop. 😉😉

11/04/2025

—EDIT— I think it is a Grey Squirrel. The short calls go with the long calls.

This is a far stretch and I realize that. My video is just showing my chickens. However, listen for the scream-like sound in the background. It sounds close today. I want to know what makes that sound. Everyone I have had listen to it says it’s a bird. My Merlin bird app will not pick it up as a bird. I’ve done a little research and have believed it could be a Barn owl. But it seems like my Merlin app would pick that up. Someone please tell me something. This goes on almost every day. But today it sounded closer than usual. VOLUME UP- warning rooster does crow at least once. He comes across pretty loud.
