I think my chickens are about to spontaneously combust
 
Well, I know what I'm doing for my mom for her birthday... taking her on a road trip that includes a 4 hr tour of a nuclear reactor that was part of the Manhattan Project. It's the Hanford, WA site, and the reactor is the one that produced the plutonium for the initial test bomb in New Mexico and the bomb that was dropped on Nagasaki. The reactor for is safe, the contaminated area is in a different part of the reservation, a couple miles away and over a ridge.

DDs 2, 4 and I went on a road trip to pick up a pet rat, and had a chance to drive past the Hanford site. It was nice and clear, and we were able to see all of the reactors and 1of the 2 areas they are decontaminating. It was a really cool drive. Washington has multiple different areas, mountains, plains, Mediterranean climates, rain forest, desert, ocean. It's really nice for driving because you're not looking at any one landscape for the entire drive. There are stretches where there is no sign of human habitation for over half an hour driving at 75 or 80 mph. The only thing you see is sagebrush and an occasional car, but even then it's not flat, there are hills and stuff. I love my state.
 
From what I was seeing it looks like biggest problem is stomache upset. Getting them to drink more water and dilute it down further is recommended.
Well i gave her more water, canned catfood with the charcoal in it and her usual dog food with a cooked egg. She isn't showing any symptoms. So yay!
