The only damage we sustained from the ice storms this winter was to the south side of the roof at Chicken City. No one was hurt, and after melting the ice, we were able to pop the roof backup. Additional supports are needed, so come on out and volunteer.

King of the Naked Necks
Joining Rikki's after last summer's Monster Chicken Rescue, this tiny little peaked has grown into King of the Transylvanian Naked Necks. No kidding, that's what this breed of chicken is called. And this is my biggest, most gorgeous boy.

Turn the Water Back On!
Sneakers and Christie howl and screamed when the water freezes up in the bathroom and they can't drink out of the faucet. Lots of pipe repairs after the cold weather.

Yes, That's a Duck in the Bathtub!
At Rikki's Refuge, just about every species has spent their fair time in our bathtub. Well, maybe not the cows. But that's only because they're too wide to fit through the door. Our house suffers from excessive wear and tear, like ducks pecking away and chewing on the wall around the tub.
We're working on lots of improvements in the bathroom area right now, come on out and volunteer.

Wayne Preparing to Repair Some Pipes.
Wayne slithered to the point under the tub, positioned the wrench and with the slightest twist of his wrist, the entire drain pipe came loose, crashed to the ground and the tub promptly drained out, almost on his head. It’s really hard to slither away quickly when your back is to the ground and your nose is to the joists.

Wilber says - Is that Human I Smell?
with no drainpipes in the bathroom, no running water in my RV, the ice on the ground making too much work to have time to go somewhere to take a shower even if I wanted to drive on it. Oh well, in this cold who’s going to smell me anyway, right? I was most horrified when in the pig pen, Wilbur snorted, “You smell like a human, get out of here, don’t bring us anymore food until you smell better.”
