Poo!
At right we see examples of many of the wonderful, mystical shapes and colors of perfectly healthy chicken shit, as submitted by readers of the Poultry Pages forum.
I thought Mapp had a bit of a problem, but some tonic in her drinking water, a monotonous diet and close examination of her chickeny byproducts and I think we’re okay.
I must admit, I had no idea enlightened poultry keeping had quite so much to do with scrutinizing and maintaining chicken butts, one way and another.
Chooks are getting bigger and sassier by the day. I can’t tell you how much of a kick I’m getting out of them.
Don’t forget to tune in tomorrow at 6pm sharp, London time, for the next Dead Pool. I’m going to set it up now to auto-post.
If you hover over the ENTER key, you might be the lucky minion to nick Gary Coleman! (Thanks for the tipoff, JuliaM).

Heaven knows, Pupster. She’s had this funny look in her eyes all week and keeps going off at a tangent about chicken shit.
Much more of this and I’m calling the vet.
Assuming he treats weasels.

Hmm, I wonder what Mike Rowe would make of that collection.
He’s become quite an expert on poo over the last few years….

Luckily my new boss gave us tomorrow off.
Should I pretend to have a life, or spend the day analyzing chicken poop and waiting to reclaim my Jimmah! Carter deadpool pick?
I guess tonights alchahol consumption and tomorrows weather will be the determining factors, along with my blazing hate of Jimmah!.

This must be some subtle lead-in for the Dead Pool, but I’ll admit I’m stumped…

Yeah, pupster….
I was thinking the same thing….pretty much since this most recent death pool xtravaganza appeared on the radar….
But I was polite enough to refrain from posting that Miss Mapp is a lock. Initially I was thinking that one or the other would succumb to local wildlife….just figuring on the odds of a hawk or fox happening by Badger house around mealtime.
But since Weasel is aready performing biological experiments on Miss Mapp, and trying to color match Mapp’s poo to the ones in the Chicken Poo poster she has up in her room….
It’s a lock, I tell you!

Ha! I’ve got paving slabs under their run — let B’rer Fox dig through THAT.
As for my poo experiments, they are entirely benign. A little creepy perhaps, but non-toxic.
