Still no baby. We're 6days late! Three inches of rain in the last 2 days and we're water logged. The sun is out for now but the clouds look ominous.

We have babies, though. Just not the kind we're anxious for right now. We've been playing classical music in the barn and we have a bumper crop of chicks. (we have decided that classical music soothes the animals and causes more hens to roost). There are these 5 chicks, a hen sitting on another dozen in the fertilizer spreader at this moment, 4 "teenagers" and 5 "young adults" of which 4 just had to be roosters. There were 8 more from a different hen but she was such a terrible mother Red Tail hawks got them all.
