Well, I got a rotisserie chicken at the store so I didn't have to cook after shopping yesterday. That would have been great, but I also got a small veggie tray and decided to "snack" on that with some hummus, and ended up devouring that instead of the chicken. So tonight was the chicken, torn up and over lettuce and tomatoes. Sooo good! 
We're missing three of our Welsh ducks. 
I can't find them anywhere and it's too dark to keep looking. I'll be out as soon as the sun comes up, searching.

Mr. V is just beside himself, two of the three that are missing are his favorite girls. The third one is my favorite. No sign of anything getting in, and no feathers all over, so I'm hoping that they are hunkered down in the woods for the night and we find them safely in the morning.

Good morning everyone! Happy Monday... Just trying to cheer you/me up. I get to look forward to Grrrr day today.
FV, I hope you find your ducks!

Good Morning all. Pumpkin was wondering the same thing. Hopefully the ducks will be there in the morning waiting on food.
I swear Victor did not have anything to do with their escape. Look elsewhere....
Gee, I sure hope you find them. They must be smart so they should also remember where the chow line is located.

Thanks guys. I found the feathers of one of the white ones, no trace of the other two. I did stumble upon what looks like a bear den so high tailed it back to the hut. I wasn't armed, and really should know better. 
I'll gun up and go looking again, leaving early to do it.

Bummer. Now I'm worried about the 2 openings There 10 ft. off the ground but about a foot wide at the highest point. Wings are clipped but that's a pain to try and catch them a few times a year. That's the main reason I'm hoping some hatch. I'll vent sex and then pinion the ones I want to keep. Problem solved. The only predators we have are the neighbors cats and an occasional possum.
It looks like they found an opening about 5" high in one corner next to the coop. Mr. V and I completely missed it. Stoopid birds.....

The gap was caused by flushing out their little pool, so it's our fault. And we found where a coyote or three had a meal. Now we can go back to work.

Thanks Tiff. Other than that, it's a beautiful day outside. I did get 3 ticks wandering the woods, they are going to be bad this year. Yuck.
