This post very clearly demonstrates your role. The OP did do good to alert public of potential issues. I saw to it the party in question was aware of the concern that until yesterday evening was likely not being effectively conveyed. The public in this case appears to be those seeing and responding to this thread. The museum engaged and clarified their purpose giving clear indication they are aware of problems and are investing effort to fix them.
@MissChick@dee your role was to inflame. The chickens in this instance did not benefit from your actions or statements.
@HensSweetHens,
I suggest you focus on future issues rather than dwell on past. Your intent to promote well being of the birds is being realized. If you see problems in the future, then bring them up so they can be corrected.
In another thread, let us see your birds emphasizing how they are cared for and how they brighten your day.
Sir, I don't want to anger you... and again, I appreciate your advice...but I feel like you were upset and tired of this thread that day when you sent the email to the Museum... The reality is that the problem is continuing, it's not "past" yet. "Why?" you might ask...because if the coop overseers are still saying "none of our chickens are sick" - they are not seeing the problem. It's easy to say and even believe "there is nothing wrong", if one refuses to stop for a moment and look closely, because their ego is in the way. That's what I've heard from other volunteers too, who are members and supporters of the Museum, but whose opinions are being ignored still (it's not just me, please understand).
To be honest I would've preferred if the email was sent by me or a volunteer from the museum (those who I know). The museum people would have seen it as an act in good faith, and now...such an email (with actually some good suggestions) is useless. With all due respect, sir, you did not see what I or others saw happening with the birds at the coop over the last year, and the pictures posted by the museum yesterday don't tell much of the birds' health, at all. I am fairly certain that because the museum people have now seen this thread, they more likely are "inflamed" and bitter towards me or others involved, who really want to help.
