Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Are you sure they are mites? Chicken/foul mites don't usually bite people, do they? @BY Bob , @RoyalChick ???

Yes! They do not get any nourishment from us but do bite. I will try and track down an article this week.

Contact that chef from the article linked a couple of days ago: raising "surplus" roos to something like 147 days before processing for restaurants. He's somewhere in Australia....

Yes, also in Victoria, which is 11 - 14 hours drive away. I think I would become attached to them and would want them to go to a no-kill, forever home.

And then there were three. She is gone.

I will probably call the state lab in the morning but will sleep on it.

Hug your chickens everyone, they are precious little souls and some of them are only with us for a short while.
