mint farm 2.0

minty

runs bartertown
i had been harvesting some punkins, n wanted to make this post about the fall crops, but a king is down
surely, keeping free range chickens i have grown used to the cycle of hatches n losses

some i had not even had the chance to name, some i had lost n not noticed until later, but today... nah

my heart hurts
blonky has missed showing off his beautiful majestic buttery feathers

Blonky noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
that 24/7 armed surveillance system of the mint farm can't come soon enough
this one's a rough loss for sure... i ended up drinking the sloe gin i use for my hawthorn berry tinctures

blonky (june 2022-oct 2025) is survived by his daughter artemis, granddaughter (and possibly daughter as well) laura palmer, frizzle daughter goldberry, his half-breed son horus, his half-breed femcel daughter cheepus, mercury's latest full cochin hatch burrito and frizzle son n new head honcho snowberry... who has some seriously big shoes to fill. but also the backyard might be a little less game of thrones-y now

if i find a place with more acreage (still house-hunting) n let them free range again i'll get 50 cal turrets just for you, raptor

not sure if i ever posted this pic of him because i meant to try n blingy it or add cheek blush n uwu filters but this is one of my favorite pics of blonky since he's lookin' like a supermodel wavin' his wattle in the wind
this is a fitting memorial pic

You need to get a big cock rooster or some kind of guard dog.

let me stop you right there
i have a dog. you know this, cuz you butted in like a faggot when he broke his toe like "gO gEt HiM a BaNdAgE" after i already took him to the vet, cuz you were upset a sad thing happened.
sad shit happens daily. after all, you keep waking up and logging in, don't you?

this is a chicken. chickens have a high respawn rate BECAUSE they get picked off all the time. he was a rooster. his job was to defend his hens/eggs. as the area where the majority of his feathers was at was right in front of a clutch of eggs, he was doing what he was supposed to do. not a single hen was gone, and no eggs were violated.

i'm on year 3 of chicken owning. i have relocated and killed possums/snakes that were raiding food. i have animal traps, i have a crossbow. shut up

@chuj will you edit those 2 in the obituary plz
also i called it wrong snowberry is running away from horus i think chicken autism is carried on the frizzle gene
horus is being a menace in the backyard and kicked boo's ass yesterday i had to clean him up with anti-microbial spray isn't the emperor's son horus being an asshole some entire omnibus in 40k lore?

snowberry will probably kick horus' ass for head honcho status in another month or so... he has black patches in his feathers like his daddy... and autism from his granddad honey

the real tragedy of losing konrooster n blonky to a coyote is the gold-laced wyandotte named after mitzi can't get ran through by konrad or blonk, ruining my edf fanfiction plans
