    Future soccer star? As what, the ball?

    Never heard of moss chickens before (I’ve heard of the bird but not the nickname). I can see why learning to walk is a challenge. That’s a lot of feet for a little one to figure out.

      Faking injury. This one kilt me Mike! 🤣

        Ah, I get it now! Thanks for clarifying, Dulcie. I don’t follow football/soccer, I had no idea faking injuries was commonplace.

        • Dulcie April 20, 2022 / 1:10 pm

          Actually I probably wouldn’t either but recently saw a clip on sports news that comes on during regular news. And they showed quite a few suspected fakes that lead to penalties.

    Hurrah for Photon the phormer pheral! Wombats always seem to be drama queens. Have to save everything else for later.

    Looking at the picture, “Moss Chicken” fits.

    The picture doesn’t give a sense of the size of the kākāpō, it’s sad that there are so few left in the world, I looked it up and there are now 208 left not 199 still not a lot.

      The moss chickens have taken over my front lawn. Unless that’s just… moss.

        Let us know if it starts stumbling around!

    Is it just me or did the font in the email notifications change?

      I noticed a change as well. That function is provided by WordPress and I don’t think I get a say in the design.

        Just making sure I wasn’t losing it… 😉

    Moss chicken

    The moss chickens babies do seem to have a lot to learn – walking seems like a tough one, eating too, I mean there’s a twig with leaves and they seem to be holding on to the twig part. It’s the LEAF!

      I guess moss chickens aren’t going to be the ones that play piano for treats…🐔😜

    So many cuties this morning. I guess the only way to tell the moss chicken from it’s habitat is look for eyes and beaks. So thrilled Photon came out of his shell and is living his best life. Loving old man TobyKeith, mom must be doing something right for him to hit 21. And the Oscar for best actor goes to the Wombat!

    In other news, roommate has exited the building. Came by yesterday while we were at work, took his remaining stuff and the cats (thankfully nothing else) then left keys. And after all the drama, he just quietly moved on. I think he realized we had figured him out and no amount of lying, manipulating or emotional pleas were going to change the outcome. Locks are being changed this weekend too. Sometimes you don’t realize what a weight you’re carrying until the situation resolves itself. I finally feel like I can breathe and relax in my home again.

      OMG that’s wonderful!! Yessss!!! 🎉

    • Debg April 20, 2022 / 2:47 pm

      Great news! Though I’m sure you’ll miss the cats.

      • AJ April 20, 2022 / 3:17 pm

        Sorta miss the cats but it’s nice to be able to leave doors open, plus not deal with litter, and hair, and cat hacks on the carpet. They did leave a few parting gifts that I cleaned up this morning.

    • Emsthemonster April 20, 2022 / 3:57 pm

      Very good news!

    • Dubravkamcvmd April 20, 2022 / 8:46 pm

      Good riddance!

  9. Emsthemonster April 20, 2022 / 4:00 pm

    OK, so my comment went to the wrong place. What I meant by “very good news” was that the problematic guy finally left, not that AJ cleaned up after the cats 🙂

    • Dulcie April 20, 2022 / 4:04 pm

      🤣
