Rescued it from the chicken coop

Any advice?

Or the next tomorrow or the next

Nope has to be done tomorrow, I am about to lose silkies in the jungle hahaha.

Dakota is having Ritz crackers and canned corn for snacks today. She said she’d walk over my back to help me relax! Yay

Better than a horse walking over you let me tell you

Did you hear the corn?

On occasion, I would have a pigeon in my coop. They like the nesting set up that my chickens have. I don’t like mixing wild birds with my chickens. The results can be devastating.

Okay. Then why don’t you take before and after pictures of your work. I’m curious

Ya, from chickens pecking the poor wild birds to wild birds carrying pathogens

Good idea - then we can all admire your work!

I don't have a picture, but the Pentagonists managed to roost in a sort of huddle so each of them could peck one other.
I don't think they have understood pecking order is not supposed to be circular!

For Lovers of Hattie

She is doing great. Her sore is healing. She jumped up on a footstool today for the first time in many months.

Even better she has started showing her wiles. She avoided me in a very clever fashion today.

Last time I caught her in the morning it was when everyone exited the complex when I opened the side door in the morning. So I tried the same thing this morning. Out they came.

Only 5 hens. Where is Hattie? OK. I can wait. So I call her. No response.

Then I hear scratch, scratch, scratch.

It's coming from the Cluckle Hut. Hattie is in the Cluckle Hut scratching around.
I call her again. Out into the porch she comes.

I watch as she tries to work her way onto the ramp and she seems to be having trouble. So I decide to go pick her off the porch. To do so I have to walk around the complex to the door into the big run.

As soon as I get to the door, Hattie jumps off the porch and sprints out across the yard away from me. No medicine for her this morning. Fooled that old human servant again.


She is this active on 1 ml per day. I'm hoping this lasts a long time.
