Getting Ready for Thanksgiving ...

Kolby Fehlberg-BurnsComment

Yesterday morning, I was out in the yard feeding the chickens. Now mind you, these chickens are wild and roam around on their own. No coop, nothing. The show up at my door in the morning at 8am and then again at 5pm for food.

I found this little white feather from one of the 8 new chicks we have.

It reminded me of elementary school, when each year we would go out to a turkey farm. The farmer showed us around and talked about turkeys. He would give each of us a turkey feather to take back to class. Back to school, we learned how to make a quill from the feather and practice writing with ink like the original settlers.

Did anyone here also do that?

Thanks for Listening
