Ah! I understand losing the blogging habit. I was worried about you though! I stalked you for a bit, and found you continued to do the freewritehouse encouragement program, so I knew you were still breathing, at least for a while there.
Those piles of fecal material make the best fertilizer for your veggies, but I'm sure you know that already. I also moved, and have a tiny yard now, no room for chickens, but now and then I think about getting quails for eggs and fertilizer. Anyway, welcome back!!! I am very happy to 'see' you again.
