Bucket Birds Update!

Monday, October 3rd, 2011

Hi there, and Happy Monday!

I know that we haven’t updated you on our office pets in quite a while! Since our last update, we’ve moved the bird cage downstairs into our corporate showroom. We had a big open space for it right in front of a picture window, and away from the foot traffic of the office. Zebra finches aren’t really into interacting with humans, so it’s worked out perfectly! They get a nice quite corner with a beautiful view, and we don’t get questions on the phones asking us what’s beeping in the background!

I tried to get a picture of all 5 of them together, but they definitely fly too fast for me. We are now down to 3 males, and 2 females. One of our females passed away about a month ago. Since we got them from a swap meet, we really aren’t sure how old any of them are, and we’re not sure which ones are the babies now. They’re just so silly!

Does your workplace have any pets or animals? I’d love to hear your stories about them!

Have a great week!

BooBoo the Wonder Cat!

Hi there, and Happy Friday!

Last weekend, my brother had some family over for a birthday dinner for his girlfriend. She’s the sweetest girl, and I can’t wait for her to be my sister in law. They’ve been together for several years, and we always have an awesome time together. I can’t believe she’s 25! Happy Birthday, Rebecca! (more…)

Fall, Finally!

Tito in the leavesHi there, and Happy Friday!

I can’t believe it’s the official First Day of Autumn today. This year is really flying by! Unfortunately, that also means that I only have 6 more paychecks before Christmas… Yuck! Oh well! I’ve already started my shopping, so I feel good about that.

Here is an older picture of my dog Tito doing what he does best – being lazy in the yard! He loves jumping and running through piles of leaves right after I rake them up. He’s just like a kid!

Have a lovely fall weekend! It’s almost time for taking those long country drives to check out the changing leaves!

A “Motel 6″ for Chickens

Tuesday, November 30th, 2010

1088-83525Our family is embarking on an adventure that we have never done before.

We now are the owners of 8 chicken hens and one rooster.  My husband decided, a few weeks ago, that having chickens would be a lot of fun.

He built them a chicken pen, thus “Motel 6″, and proudly brought home our new additions and introduced them to their new lodging facilities.

It took about week before they started laying eggs, but now we are getting 3-4 eggs a day! It is so much fun walking down to the pen and hunting the eggs.

Cindy’s Critter Collection is Growing!

Pebbles

I have been raising peacocks for about 3 years now. They are so beautiful and I really enjoy them.

My adult peacocks, Fred and Wilma (I’m starting the Flinstone family), had 3 eggs last year and all 3 hatched in my incubator. The children’s names are Pebbles, Bam Bam, and Betty.

Unfortunately, Pebbles was hatched with a birth defect which affected her leg. She had surgery on her leg which worked for a while, but as she grew, her leg became damaged.
