Yesterday it started to rain. Ds and I raced to get everything that was out picked up (laundry, his toys, etc.). Well, in that list was our 4wk old chicks, now full-time in the run/coop. They had been out enjoying the sunshine, and we ushered them back into the henhouse and closed them up safe and dry. We didn't mind.. but then I got paranoid thinking that I'll never be able to leave to go anywhere if it's cloudy ever AGAIN. Can't have my babies getting wet!!
So.. here's my dumb q, at some point are they going to figure out that when it rains, they need to go back to the safety of the henhouse? Or.. at some point will it be ok for them to get wet? Or.. will Ds and I keep up this mad dash until ds moves away to college and I'm walking with one of those walkers-on-wheels?
Don't get me wrong, I really don't mind (besides, they are still so adorable climbing up their little ramp and going through the little door!) Just felt bad for them because it really only sprinkled for 2min, ground was even still dry, but they were locked up snug in the house just in case it started again.
Ok, go ahead.. laugh at me.
