Okay, I never thought I would say this, but I must really love my chickens....lmao
I let my silkies out of the cage for a little while so they could run around a little. The littlest one, had a run in with my brahma, so I carried her around for awhile. Then put her back and locked it up, so the Brahma couldn't get her. The bigger silkie, Nevermore, was outside and they really didn't give her too much trouble. So, I sat outside in the pen with her, in the freezing wind, so she could scratch and peck around. She was pretty safe, since the others had already went to roost. I was sitting there thinking, "I must be crazy! I am freezing and sitting here waiting for her to get some running around done." I have a little cubby set up for her to run too, once they are finished integrating. So I kept putting her in it, so she will know what it is when the time comes. I swear, people (non chicken owners) must think I am nuts!
