Day 68
Today was fun. (Mir: We saw Hawk again. He swooped down to say hello!) Mir, he swooped down to try to EAT US. (Mir: NOOOOOOO!!!!! Hawk is my FRIEND.) Okay, whatever you say Mir... (Mir: Thank you. Anyways, It rained. And rained. And rained and rained and rained and rained and rai-) Mir, we get the point. (Mir: Okay. Anyways, tomorrow, we get to free range with the big girls!)
Day 69
Today was interesting. Mir was talking to Hawk again... (Mir: Yup. He was chasing after 'sparrows'. I don't know what they are, but apparently they're evil little birds.) Mir, I already told you... sparrows are good and hawks are- (Mir: Yes, I know, bad. But Hawk is different. Anyways, we got to free range with the big girls until it started raining again. Tomorrow, we get sunflower seeds.)
Day 70
Today, Malibu showed us a 'polymer clay' charm thing. (Mir: It was shiny and pretty. I went to peck at it but Malibu wouldn't let me. I wonder why. Anyways, we got a TOMATO. It was red and delicious. Apparently it was a 'reject'. It was split. But it was yummy.) Mir has finally learned that Tomatoes are food, not friends... Tomorrow, we get more tomato.
Day 71
Today, we got more tomato but the big girls hogged it all. (Mir: Yup. Petrie is mean. I went to eat some and she pecked me. Anyways, I went into the big girls' coop and Seana grabbed me and pecked me so I ran out and jumped up on top of my coop and then ran under Ella. She protected me and pecked back, hackles raised and all. That's why I love her.) Tomorrow, maybe Mir will let me do a diary entry.
Day 72
Today, Malibu found something on Mir... I'll let HER tell y'all what it is..... (Mir: IT ITCHESSSS!!!!!!! GAAAHHHH!!!! Oh. Hi there. I have lice. And they laid eggs. In my beard. GET IT OFFFFFF!!!!) While Mir is flailing around the coop, I'll tell you how she got them. Petrie has lice. When she pecked Mir, some lice got on her. Now, they laid eggs and Malibu has to treat both of us. Being a chicken is SO HARD. Tomorrow, Mir gets a bath or whatever the treatment for lice is.
