another typhoon making its way toward japan. typhoon khanun is going to dump more and more rain on already soaked kyushu. 32 people already died and i hope that number doesn’t grow. hope every body stays safe!
well, yesterday was a sad day for me. my 2 chicks salt and pepper had to go. they were brothers and sisters, one male, one female. but where i live, it’s illegal to raise a male chicken because it crows too loud in the morning. you can actually get a ticket. for the past 2 days, pepper has been crowing at 6:30am so it was time to take them to a better place.
i was thinking of only taking pepper away, but these 2 chicks were born together, and stuck together for the last 2 months. they need each other for sure.
so i picked a great place on top of the mountain near my house.
opened the box, fed them for the last time, and said goodbye.
i’d never thought i’d be sad releasing chickens. but being attached to them and seeing them everyday for the past 2 months was cool. usually i’d eat wild chickens, but not salt and pepper. they are in a better place now and the cool thing is that i can go back anytime to visit them. i have 2 female chicks on order from the hatchery and will pick them up next week. those, i will keep forever. good bye salt and pepper!
last, the kimura-san family from kobochihama in tohoku should be arriving here soon. i can’t wait to see them and can’t wait to show them around hawaii. the last samurai in hawaii! cool!
