Wow!
This morning I thought I'd give the girls a treat, so I went to the backyard and dug up a chunk about 6" deep, 10" long, and 6" wide.
Put it in their pen and ...swarm! You'd think I dropped a ton of krugerants in the middle of the road.
Those girls were all over it.
Checked back on them an hour later....gone. I mean, nothing left but a tiny wad of roots.
I think they liked it.
Here's the pen in the sunroom--note dust layer
And yes, it's finally green outdoors...the girls will be moving out to their coop this week!
And here's a shot of all of them taking a break (it was a busy hour!
) (From L to R, that's Lucy's tailfeathers
, Cleo, Buffy, Lois, Goldie, Myrtle, and the best chicken mom, Millie)
