YaHOOOOO it’s Tucker Tuesday! Hi everyone, welcome to the farm!
Wow the world outside has been really great lately because I don’t feel like I’m swimming in the air when I go for a walk and that means mama wants to play outside more too! So one day this week we were walking around in the yard and I found this neat slickery thing and it smelled funny like nothing I’d ever smelled before and I was like WHOA and I showed it to mama and she was really brave and picked it up and so I smelled it while she was holding it because I thought surely it wasn’t scary if mama was holding it but then she wiggled it and laughed because it made me jump and bark! But then she let me smell it again and it was a little less scary but it still smelled weird. Mama said it’s called a snake skin and I thought that was pretty wild because that means… somewhere in our yard… there’s a NAKEY SNAKE! So I was looking around all over for the nakey snake and I didn’t find that one but I did find this one little guy in the garden that looked about the right size to wear the little skin suit I found but he had his skin on so it couldn’t have been him. Still, he was pretty cool and I said HI and he stuck out his tongue and scooted away under the bucket and I thought that was kinda rude but mama says snakes are shy (and that makes me wonder why there’s one running around nakey because if I was shy I wouldn’t leave my skin lying around!). I did find a whole bunch of leaves that fell off the trees and I thought maybe we should grab those and hang them back up but then I realized it’s more fun to shake them like the dickens and chew on them and they’re all crunchy and taste like happiness. Mama says the trees will all be nakey again soon too and boy there sure is a lot of that going around. I’ll have to keep a close eye on MY skins! Apparently this happened to the trees last year, too, but I was just a baby so I don’t remember. A lot of the baby chickens are laying eggs now and the eggs are really pretty colors . Mama says we’ll have eggs for a good long time with these friends on our side, but then she said they’ll probably not make so many eggs for a little bit because it’s fall and they’re moulting and I didn’t know what that word means but it turns out… YUP you guessed it! They’re getting nakey!!! So then mama says when they get their winter feathers back in they’ll make some more eggs because they can’t grow feathers and eggs at the same time and that makes sense because I can’t talk and hold my squeaky ball at the same time. Then there was this weird little bug and IDK if he was nakey or not and I’m not sure how you would tell but I put his picture on here because he was really neat to look at up close even if he turns out to be nakey. Daddy did a good job building a puppy shelter for my sisters and last night mama said they had to sleep outside under the stars and I don’t know if they liked that or not but I didn’t like it because if they don’t go to the shed to sleep then I don’t get to run in the pasture at night and that’s my favorite thing to do so mama says we’ll have to work something out so I still get lots of running time so that made me happy. Oh and since I couldn't play with the nakey snake mama and daddy bought me this really terrific big orange rope snake to play with and he was perfect, just the right size and chewy and then I accidentally started eating pieces from him so mama had to take him back. She says we'll have to work on that... So that’s what’s happening around the farm - everything is getting nakey. Have a good fall, y’all! Love from your not-so-nakey pal, Tucker Bear PS - here’s a bunch of flowers from around the farm, too. IDK what they all are but mama says I can’t eat them so I thought maybe you would like to look at them.
