I can't listen to modern country. It really started going downhill around 2000 and has just kept going. I keep my radio on a sports station now. Back in the late 80's I could listen to our country stations for up to 12 hours a day. Country music from around 1956 through about 1991 is hard to beat though.

Great post! I think it should be illegal for HOAs to restrict backyard flocks. (My HOA!)

Great point about the straw in the coop, we use wood shavings only, also important for them to have sand or very dry dirt for them to take their dirt baths. Yes they prefer dirt baths, quite entertaining seeing them do so, because of the natural oils in their feathers.
 
^^^^^^^^^^^^

Second the Dry baths.. (it also helps them too "wash" lice & parasites off their bodies/feathers.. )

Everything is generational nowadays. I mean, you can't have weather anymore without being a once in a 500 year event or pattern or outbreak or whatever.

We haven't had a generational event around here. Our weather is too boring. We may have a chance at a generational heatwave. Heat is all we do right
