Egad! Total chaos! Not Brown Egg Delta Force! This cannot possibly be happening? Where is our steady ground crew? Have they abandoned their posts to allow this pillaging to occur? Midwest Ground Control authorizes use of Extreme Containment Operations at once. Somebody find a kiddie pool and make it happen!

Mother Bird reporting extreme joy abounds.. Congratulations to Commander Catscan for successful mission. Rotation of life forms has commenced at alternate Lodi Mission Control providing additional containment module for Delaware Delta Force Crew. Walking space is at a minimum at Lodi Mission Control II in said dining room.
Am noting additional Cuckoo Marans as evidence of Commander continuing hatching yet ANOTHER batch of Cuckoo Marans elite Brown Egg Delta Force. Restraint must be demonstrated to keep mass infiltration of troops to containment modules to an acceptable level.
Standing by.

The long dark night is over and NPGC has prevailed. The five escaped insurgents were rounded up and put in a secondary high security containment vehicle, prepatory to their transfer to the South Lodi NPGC facility.

However, a second wave of alien life forms was discovered lurking in the module evacuation and containment unit.

One, skulking behind the sponges--possibly attempting to disarm the purple transducer:

Another hiding behind the window--doubtless intending to overwhelm the Commender should she attempt to enter the unit for routine post evacuation clean up:

Bring the total of the Alternate Lodi Thanksgiving Laugh (Lauch) to seven!

No further pips have been observed and the remaining 3 eggs are assumed to be dummies sent to instill terror in the Commander and her staff. They will be observed for another 2 days to assure no uncontained releases.

The tertiary Cuckoo Marans presence is due to the Commander's weakness for collecting dark brown insurgent alien life modules. She will stop now. Really, she will.

{{{Actually Gen'rul, reliable informants tell me the Commander recently ordered a large shipment of horsefeathers. All indications are that they are being shipped to a variety of locations w/in P&L unit...}}}

Lodi, United States

Huh? Is somebody whispering on here?

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

Yeah Claire Flap Flap Flap and I'm not dancin either!

LOL

Lodi, United States

Hey ZZ! Are you on the right launch team?

Gotcha!

Clarkson, KY

As frequently as you two are in cahoots if would not surprise me if both of you were issuing or at least hatching horsefeathers!!

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

Na uhhh

Catscan.. I've got to thank you for hatching these lil ping pong puff balls for me.. They are absolutely perfect. They eat from my hand already!!! One did a lil poppin cock fight at my finger! I laughed so hard I scared it away..
Wow.. This is great.. Thank you so much!

Oxford, NS(Zone 5b)

Oh sure, now you start playing with them like they are innocent or something! They will take over and possess your MIND! They will make you hatch more of them.....they are a dangerous, dangerous creature! Do not be taken in!!!

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

I had to buy worms to get the New Hampshires to eat from my hand.. and I had to tear them in half!
These lil puff balls pop up and come over... I'm totally hooked.. there is no turning back now.
Lil Boo Boo Babiez.. tooty toots.. poopy babiez Chicken babiez

They love it when I talk that way to them.. LOL Okay. Maby I love it when I talk that way to them! But they look at me and I melt

Oxford, NS(Zone 5b)

Uhhh....do we have a medical intervention team? Somebody needs to get a strait jacket on ZZ and take her to the bouncy room. She has been completely assimilated by the horde. Clearly beyond any normal assistance - she will need to be entirely reprogrammed. NPGC - are you prepared for medical intervention? We cannot have this getting out into the general public....there would be a rush on all the hatcheries and who knows where it would end up. Chickens everywhere, roaming the streets, slumming it in the subway at night, selling black market eggs.....oh the tragedy.....

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

Stay away from me.. STAY AWAY.. BACK OFF

I'm in my own little corner in my own little chair...

I can be whatever I want to beeeeeeee

Oxford, NS(Zone 5b)

Hello? Commander Catscan??? Med-evac....NOW!!!!

Why does this sort of thing only happen in California. Must be something in the water.

Lodi, United States

Mother Bird ZZ is, and has been, under professional observation for several weeks now. NPGC has agents in the house disguised as light fixtures and household appliances who will, if her deterioration warrants it, apply therapeutic dope slaps and and threats of further Cuckoo Marans purchases.

NPGC admits it may have made a serious error in releasing extremely personable and ingratiating Delawarians into Mother Birds charge. She is, by her own admission, labile and incapable of serious prisoner management. The babbling baby talk is an extremely disturbing development.

Oxford, NS(Zone 5b)

Ah, a clever and surreptitious infiltration strategy. Congratulations, Commander Catscan, on the brilliant disguising of agents as light fixtures and household appliances. How very inventive.

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

Looooking into the liiightttt

I seeeee nothing...


Cept a bunch of fuzzy butts and toot toot babiez.. snuggly buggly all in a pile..

I will try my best to maintain.. just no more cuckoo marans.. pahleezzz

Lodi, United States

I am going over to eBay--what happens there depends on Mother Bird getting a grip.

Oxford, NS(Zone 5b)

Oh dear....no news post eBay visit....potential breach of protocol here....

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

Not to worry Catscan.. I've got a firm grip on the mouse..

Let no egg get away with no bids..

Oh yeah.. THATs it.. I'm on a rescue mission.. Yeah..

more coffee ups commencing.. Helps the clicker go faster..

*muttering* more chickens more chickens mooooore chickens...

edited to add..

Okay.. I'm okay now.. Shew! I finally stopped bidding against myself and snapped out of it for now..
Am in work mode... Build more coops.. buy more.. I mean.. Um.. Where was I?

Is that the phone?
Somebody get the door!!

A terrifying early morning surprise attack has been launched on Fort Lodi by the Marans Delta Force. Early Intelligence had suggested such an action unlikely until tomorrow. Two insurgents are loose and wreaking havoc on the primary containment unit. Pipping action has been noted in at least two alien life form modules.

With Mother Bird ZZ lost in the Fog of Warm Fuzzy--our exhausted base personnel are struggling to resume their positions alone and unaided. Containment vehicles overcrowded and a transfer of some prisoners to the less secure outdoor compound anticipated for the PM.

When will it stop? Oh yeh---eBay proved somewhat irresistible.....the battle goes on.

First view of the insurgents.

Suspicious lurking around the purple sponge transponder. Lead insurgent keeping lookout.

Immediate evasive action when sighted by base personnel. You can see why these highly trained Delta Force insurgents are difficult to contain. They move like lightening and practice eastern Ninja like martial arts--including the mythical cloak of invisability. Who knows how many are actually lurking within?

Oh no.. I'm feeling that flushed feeling again.. NOT blury head spots? NO NO Pleeeease tell me it isn't sooooooo

I spy additional capsules.. could it be MORE Cuckoo Marans????

There's that dang bell again.. Who's doing that?????????

Lodi, United States

No, no more Cuckoo Marans. No more Marans of any kind. Peace has been restored to the land of Lodi. Sanity will prevail--at least on the topic of Marans.

There are going to be an awful lot of Penedesencas though......

Oxford, NS(Zone 5b)

WHERE is Ninja Dahlianut? She should be able to assist with the insurgency! She knows all the right moves!

Elbridge, NY(Zone 5a)

Oh happy days! Babies everywhere! They are so sweet!
I may have seen too much! I may need to be debriefed later.
Congrats!

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

I'm enjoying Coffee ups and a nice quiet morning..
