Uh ... I have to confess something

Sigh.

So much for me being the great "Chicken Whisperer." Yeah. That went out the window on Sunday when Felix was out feeding the animals.

"Mom?"

"Yes honey."

"Did you say you thought Puzzle died?"

"Yeah it was Puzzle, the White Rhodie. Why?"

"Well, no. It wasn't Puzzle. She's standing right here. It was Frenchy, the Leghorn."

"WHAT??!! Are you sure?"

As I walked up to the coop, sure enough, there was Puzzle, scratching and pecking like a good hen. I was missing a Leghorn. Good thing I didn't have to have a burial for her and create a headstone (I'm behind three already) with the wrong name. Crikey.

So much for me knowing all my hens. Ugh.
