    We put palm inside the cow house door every year.
    We keep twenty five hens at home. We call the hens "tuck tuck". The usual number of eggs that is put under a hen when sitting is thirteen. Before setting the eggs we put a mark with blue on them so that if another hen laid where she was set we would know her egg.
    The domestic animals we have are two cats and a dog.
