Weekly iPhone Roundup {3.11 - 3.17}

First I'd like to say, Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Another eventful weeks for the books. Not anything major, just doing a lot and involved in a lot. I added 3 new Silkie Chicks to the flock, which was an impulse buy. I only wanted two white ones, but there was legit only 3 left, so I couldn't leave the third little one behind. 

We also took all the glider cages out and cleaned them, which was an all day thing. We also cleaned the toys, wheels and all the cage sets. The gliders were probably having a sensory overload due to all the cleanliness. I'll be the first to admit that we absolutely do not clean their cages as much as we should. With the weather getting warmer, we really have no excuse. 

Aside from that we had the Bald Eagle excitement from my last post. Still so damn cool and I'm so proud of the pictures I was able to capture. It makes me want a higher quality telephoto lens now, which is terrible. It's not like it's gonna happen, They're insanely expensive.

I also got to play the Resident Evil 4 remake demo yesterday. So. Freaking. Amazing! If anyone knows me, they know I love anything Resident Evil. My sister and I have legit been playing Resident evil games since 1999, which is almost a quarter century... unreal! For the solo games, RE4 has to be one of my favorites. I have so many good memories with it, I think that's why I love it so much. I got the remastered version for PS4, but the rendering or something really screws with my eyes. 

I almost forgot to add that I went with my aunt to our culty neighbors house Wednesday to look at some sprouts. Word on the street is that they're selling their property. I couldn't believe it, I was both excited and dreading who might move in after them. That's beside the point. I mainly went to look at their chicken coop that they have for sale. We've been in need of a new coop for years. We have the lumber and everything else for our new one, but we have to wait until my uncle is recovered from his surgery to build it for us. Until then, we thought this coop would be perfect. They're asking a lot for the coop, but they did agree to go down a few hundred dollars, which is awesome. I just have to contemplate for the next week or so on what to do.

Anyways, I think that's pretty much it. Anything else will be in the photos and not worth writing too much about. Enjoy!

Living in a rural region means you absolutely will get stuck behind farmers and their tractors.

Here's the new baby Silkies! One looks cream, but the other two are for sure white.

Granny Layla.

Perryvile, MO streets and night.

People are so nasty. Someone left their McFlurry outside the drive-thru window Saturday night.

I'm in love with the new baby Silkies. They're tiny and terrified.

The drive-thru was a bitch Sunday night at McDonald's. I do not miss these days.

This baby turkey wanted so badly to come home with me.

So did this one.

And that one in the back.

Notes on the clawfoot bathtub. Love the aesthetic.

Walmart grocery pickup for the win. The guy that almost always bring the order out is a guy named, Nathan, that I used to work with at McDonald's.

The drive home on the new Saint Francois bridge.

The boys cage was nice and clean Tuesday. All at my own hand, I might add.

Mr. Max... he's such a beautiful red boy.

Here's the Bald Eagle next from afar. I sure hope the owner of the farm doesn't mind us parking here.

It's really far back.

Thankfully the zoom on my phone got a decent picture of the mated pair of Bald Eagles.

This is Miss Louise, our scissor beak chick.

She's such a curious and sweet girl.

Here's more of the baby chicks.

And more of the baby chicks.

The scraggly one is our white Polish Crested chick, Thrya.

This absolutely insane black and white chick is another one of our Polish Crested chicks. Her name is Brida. If you know, you know.

A more calm Crested Polish.

I just love all our chicks so much.

This is the rarely photographed black Silkie.

Here are the other 3 glider cages in the process of being cleaned. After months and months, we finally moved Cas' cage out of the room. :(

I not only scrubbed their water bottles, but I boiled them first. I also soaked all the nozzles in white vinegar to break off hard water stains.

Our one white HQ sugar glider cage all nice and clean.

Our double stacked HQ sugar glider cages, nice and clean.

And lastly, our Double Critter Nation sugar glider cage that got cleaned the day before.

Here's a pic of the new Resident Evil 4 remake demo. Loved it!

Nasty, hazy day.

Here are the sprouts that the neighbors gave us. They're all in really rough shape.

And last, but not least, all of the Dunkin' Donuts s'mores iced cases that were given to us.

- Weekly iPhone Roundup {2.18 - 2.24}

 What an eventful week! So my aunt surprised us with 6 Easter Egger chicken over the weekend and they are the CUTEST! Then I made the mistake of calling Buchheit's Saturday and finding out that they had all kinds of baby chicks! I ended up getting 8 more chicks. I know, that's kind of a lot at once, but I couldn't help myself. 

I ended up getting 2 Barred Rock, 2 Dominique, 2 Polish Crested and last, but definitely not least... 2 Silkies!! We have a white little roo, so I got a white Silkie and a buff colored Silkie. Little known fact about me, Silkies are my favorite chickens in the world, so it tickled me to death to find baby Silkies. I wanted to take them all, no joke.

Then out of nowhere Tuesday evening, our white Polish Crested got very lethargic. She was just standing off to herself, not eating or drinking, just sleeping. I got her out and held her and fed her some chick started mixed with water. I would scrape a small amount on her beak until she would finally eat it. Then we dripped some sugar water on her beak, which she ended up drinking. It took a few hours for her to come around, but thank God she did. 

By the end of the night she was standing in the food and eating herself!

I guess that's all for now, here are the pics from the week (there's a lot):

McDonald's for the win Saturday night.

It was so dead in Perryville Sunday night, like more than usual.

Here are the beautiful little Easter Egger chicks!

I love them so much.

Here are the little chicks in their new home for the sex several weeks.

I unintentionally had 4 white cheddar items in my cart Monday. Definitely wasn't planned.

Canning jars galore at Buchheits!

Oh how I wanted every single one of these baby ducklings.

Here's the new additions.

I also grabbed a big pack of ammo from Walmart for our new .22 handguns that my mom and step dad got LaVaughn and myself for Christmas.

Here are all the little chicks together. It's hard to tell them apart in this pic.

The little black ones are the Barred Rock and Dominique. The grey and white is one of the Polish Crested, the other Polish and two Silkies are mixed in there somewhere.

Look how much my lemon sprouts are growing! I topped them off with more soil earlier this week, but I think they look amazin.

Here's our little white Polish Crested. She was so pitiful.

She also looks very hateful.

But she's a sweet little baby chick.

I went for a ride Wednesday to try and find a Bald Eagle that I saw on the drive home Monday. I didn't find it, unfortunately.

I drove down C highway, which is pictured here. There's always Bald Eagles in this location.
