Upheavals

Man, I hadn't realized how long it's been since I posted an entry. Hellzapoppin' out at the colony. Big John and the Black are getting so tame they're walking up to people. and that won't do at all. By great good fortune I found a nice barn for them, so today was Moving Day. At least I didn't have to trap them again; Big John walked right into a carrier, and the Black fell for another trick; I put the carrier behind him, then tickled him on the chest (which he doesn't care for) so he backed away from my hand and into the carrier! No muss, no fuss. Well, some fuss; they weren't happy once the car started and began to move, but who could blame them? Look what happened last time they went on a car ride! Nevertheless, they're now comfortably ensconced in acclimatization cages at the new place, and their appetites are unimpaired, so all's well for now.
