This afternoon, my husband and I were at the TSC, and I noticed a box at the edge of the parking lot. I didn't look in it, because my cat just gave birth to kittens this morning, one of our rabbits is pregnant, and we just got our flock of chickens to the point that they don't need lots of babying...just food, water, and to be let out to scratch in the yard a couple times a day.
Some girl just HAD to go and look in. <sigh> It was full of yellow peeps. Filthy, hungry, pecking at moldy nasty bread peeps.
Dh, being the guy that he is, wouldn't stand for them to be left in the parking lot, and TSC wouldn't take them (they've obviously been neglected) so now, we have...well, I haven't even counted them yet, probably 12+ peeps, goodness knows what kind. They're in our garage with water, chick food and a heat lamp.
We live in a subdivision, mind you, and our happy flock of 14 is plenty for us right now. I think our neighbors would draw the line at 25+ birds. What should we DO with them? ::sigh::
