[Ag-eq] Chickens

Tue Mar 5 05:33:45 UTC 2013

Hi Nella 

I got the minis last year. It has always been a dream of mine since I heard
about them. They are so beautiful!

Minis are pretty much a breed. They come in different colours and sizes but
minis are a breed. 

Oh goodness, you should have stepped on those ladies and then gone "oops,
guess prayer isn't working so well for you."

Michelle:

I'm sorry you had such a bad experience; people can be so inconsiderate!

Once while I was shopping 2 women from a church got down on the floor and
started praying for me!  I was so embarrissed, and didn't know what to do.
The whole time I'm thinking you better be praying for yourselves because I'm
having murderous thoughts right now.  People just need to mind their own
business.

I'm glad the mini horses will be closer to you; I hope this means you will
get to spend even more time with them.  How did you get into mini horses?

This may be a stupid question, but are there different breeds of mini
horses?

I don't know much about them, other than they're really cute!

Please tell us more about the farm and what you're learning.

Take care.

Nella
