That is one crazy looking chicken. She really looks totally insane. It's been raining a lot the past few days, which is quite unfortunate for them since they hate being out in the rain. They've been cooped up and might be going a bit stir crazy. They're happy for the breaks in the rain when they can dash out into the yard for a quick dirt bath and scratching in the tomato bed. The tomatoes are really ripening now and we'll soon have more than we know what to do with. We had some pickling cucumbers, but we haven't tasted them yet. Hopefully they're not bitter, because they sure are cute. I remember we made pickles at Sarah Lawrence in a big jug and they turned out surprisingly well. I do love pickles. The zucchini plant isn't so productive this summer. Last summer we had some 5 lb zucchinis! Abigail is back at the vet today :( She's much worse than she was before. She's spent the day at the vet, having some pain meds and antibiotics. I'm actually really irritated with the vet for not catching the problem on Thursday when she was there for the entire day and they ran all kinds of ridiculously expensive tests.... Anyway, it's been incredibly stressful and I feel just terrible for the little fluffy goose. She's just been having such a rough time. Poor Abigail!
