My Chicken Existential Crisis... I mean journey

When I weigh my birds, I hold them, weigh myself on a bathroom scale,, then subtract my original weight.

When I weigh my birds, I hold them, weigh myself on a bathroom scale,, then subtract my original weight.

yeah, I got really frustrated because the bathroom scale refused to read on the dirt floor and them refused to read on the concrete driveway, probably because our land isnt flat. it freaked me out because i thought I broke it. it was giving me all sorts of crazy numbers, saying I was 70lbs when I'm a fully grown adult. but it worked just fine inside before and after.

so I was using a kitchen scale that went up to 2k grams

the best part was I put the chicken on it, made them sit down, turned off the light, removed my hands, turned the light back on and read the scale number before they could reorient.

@CHlCKEN come do it for me okay? you worm my 37 birds and I'll worm your... presumably way more reasonable number.

You have 30 more than I do and I can’t even get around to doing my own

Lucky!

I have dealt with some type of prolapse in newly hatched chicks

I have placed the ladder for tonight! hopefully I can get 3 of the ones I didnt get last night. (and then theyd just get one day past when I stop everyone else)
