Really nervous

[topochico225]

Hi everyone,

I'm leaving for a camping trip Thursday, returning July 11. This is the second time I have ever left my new flock, and I'm really nervous, because I have never left them for this long. Our pet sitter sends pictures/updates 3x a day, but I'm still so nervous to leave the birds. I've got 3 hens and 2 tiny 9wk d'Uccle pullets. Funny how I get separation anxiety from the animals that won't miss me My senior Schnoodle is having a conniption.

Anyone have any happy vacationing-without-the-chickens stories?

It's all about having a good pet sitter, and it sounds as if you have a great one. Relax and enjoy your vacation.

Have fun on vacation, your birds will be fine!

I remember going on vacation as a kid and worrying about whether my grandfather would take care of the animals properly. He always did a great job.
