These girls are the reason that if I was in a position that if it meant to keep chickens confined in a coop 24/7 was the only way to keep them I would not have any. He had more predator issues then I do so his only option was no free ranging at all. His chicks that he ordered this spring never came and he is happy about it. Don't get me wrong, he and his wife loved their chickens, but came to the conclusion that if these girls were given a shot at a place where they could free range eventually and be "chickens" it was for the best. My mom and his wife have become Facebook buddies and have a shared interest in yard sales and estate sales. They've already made plans to get together when covid dies down in our area and hit a few "junk sales" as I call them. It would not surprise me at all that if when I got sawdust delivered that she tags along to come visit "her girls" and that would be perfectly fine. In fact when my sawdust is delivered I'm sending a dozen eggs home with him.I assume therefore that they were kept someplace without access to grass or the sun, right?
