Thank you, everyone, for using the spoilers to cover potentially upsetting content. I really appreciate it.
I am so glad to hear hopeful words about possibly-Delilah up and waddling! May her journey to healing continue!She has a sense of dramatic timing, apparently. I took the top off the dog crate to try to make her drink. Then I'm sitting here, bawling my eyes out and she "sat up" so I stuck her bill in the bowl and this time she drank. Twice. Then decided to get up and go take a few laps around the room. Mr. Barry got her a head of lettuce at the grocery store that she nibbled at.
Waiting and seeing.

Yeah, but T-Rex was bigger. So - yanno...Also, chickens are terrifying. I've heard rumors that they are the closest living relative of the T-rex, and I choose to believe that to justify my irrational fear of their beady little eyes. My kids have no fear, but they creep me out sometimes.
You haven't seen some of my Orpington roosters!Yeah, but T-Rex was bigger. So - yanno...
You know who would take them on? A boy quail I once had. He raped everything in sight and then drowned himself in the watertub.You haven't seen some of my Orpington roosters!

I was not sorry.
(I'm the same with cicadas...)
My high school had open hallways. I'm not precisely sure why someone thought this was a good idea in a subtropical, bug-infested state, but hey. Anyway, a cicada held a good chunk of the school hostage one morning because the little jerk was zooming aggressively at everyone who had to go down G hall--which tragically included me. I ran away. The school resource officer thought I was skipping class and was marching me back, where we were both accosted by the not so little screecher.
They had to put out an announcement that some students might be late due to difficulties with the hall.
My thought exactly. UNLEASH...THE CHICKENS!Where's a cicada munching chicken when you need one? It would have been the school hero.
