Note to self - chick raising 101

It's been so hot here, I despise having to put my knee high coop boots on. My rooster doesn't mind my black flip flops, but he absolutely freaks on my pink ones and his alarm call sends all the hens running for the hills.

I have a Roo that comes after me every time I go in with a different pair of shoes but the worst are sandals. I never noticed until recently how much toes look like grubs or meal worms. Did that once and it was on! He gave the call to the hens that there was something good to eat, same sound as when I throw in those little cherry tomatoes. I barely made it out with all my little piggies!

I usually reserve the pink flip flops for tending the chicks that are on the front porch. Went out there with a plate of scrambled eggs this morning. Had to count body parts when I made it back in the house *whew* still all there.​
