The Little Orphan Annie dog... that's why he looks so familiar! I've heard that turkeys are so dumb that they'll stand with their mouths up and open in the rain and drown. Is that a wives tale?

It's like they're the background singers, LOL!!! I love my life, I really do... every day is something new with the animals!!!!

I'm awfully in love with Ollie, too... having a hard time adopting him out... he's such a COOL dog. I can't imagine what mix he is!! He reminds me of the Little Orphan Annie dog.

It is a wives tale, but, I can see where it originated because turkeys are non-stop curious and obsessed with all things shiny. I've seen mine staring up at the raindrops when it's a light rain. Also, mine never sleep under shelter at night, they roost in the trees... so maybe some kept penned without any shelter would have really drowned?? I think it was more bad management than mass rain-induced suicide... lol!!

I love them, they have sooooo much personality. Except, they come up onto the porch and drive the dgso nuts by pecking at the sliding glass doors, and then we have a turkey/dog free or all thru the windows... by the same note, Rio the goat tends to bash the glass doors when she's feeling negelcted. That's not so cute...LOL!!!

Lori, if I ever get a chance to travel your way, I'm going to visit you for a few days! Your place sounds like so much fun, bet there's a laugh a minute with all those kooky animals! Your life is never boring, I'm sure........

Oh this is just getting nicer all the time. Can't get a new motherboard, because none of the new ones support my processor, my video card, my memory modules and quite possibly my hard drive and DVD players.

And just because I haven't upgraded anything since 2006.

you should check ebay, some of my students are making a fortune selling good but older pc parts... people (like you) are crying out for them so they don't have to upgrade everything!!

OK guys... my mice have not only NOT had babies yet (9 weeks now) but the male is getting the snot beat out of him by the female now!! Over the weekend he had some bites on his back, and this morning his ear was all bloody. Keep in mind, it's really not a space issue, they are in a 40 gallon tank with all sorts of hides, tunnels, tubes... so they can seperate as needed.

Advice? Recipes for mouse? LOL!! Do I have defective mice??

[enigma200316]

sometimes when females become pregnant and the male won't leave them alone they will beat them as you put it......lol but also they will kill them...
now I'm not saying thats going to happen,but it has happened, to me in fact............so I would maybe seperate them for awhile or something,
again my opinion.................

Ahhhh so she could be preggers. Makes sense... hormones and all... she's probably having mood swings and cravings for peanut butter and spam, and he's not getting it for her quick enough... her feet are probably swollen and her back hurts and he's wanting some... HMPH!! MEN!!
