Should I buy eggs or wait it out?

I've used the thick plastic fencing before. You know? The 50 foot roll of 3 foot fencing that costs about $60!? It is too expensive to use for the run, abd too easy to chew through for that much money. The dear netting is a lot cheaper, and the smaller holes actually make me feel better.

The ground when I walk.

I took some Valerian root, so I could be calm(er) and let the flock out once it kicked in. still stressful.

but fun

everything was going fine...

then I found these - a big pile of feathers! I rounded everyone up. I'm not missing any of my ladies and none of them are missing their tails. someone on FB said they look like Mourning Dove feathers. I have lots of those, but honestly... that would have to be like every single feather on the bird, they are not that big.

 

[BullChick]

Huh.

 

[mortie]

Those are pretty big to be MD feathers...Yikes. At least all your girls are safe.

it was the perfect day to have free range and I didn't do it. I made them a gloppy Pie around 11. I have to go out and get eggs now, but I have had the worst day of late and I've not had many good days since even before I hurt my knee, all the way back to Oct. 15 when I lost Ruby. I'm depressed and I am doing everything about it, but also having so many neuro problems and am never hungry. never. I force myself to eat because it's fuel, but I can barely choke half a normal portion down. I've lost about 40 lbs. so I do not look good and none of my clothes fit. I could drink water all day tho'. had blood work and outside of a few nutritional deficiencies (normal for Celiacs) it's all good. my neurologist doesn't know what's wrong with me either, but I'm due for a followup and he's the only one I haven't seen yet. don't remember if I ever mentioned it here or not... I have lesions on my brain. quite a few. bet I'll need a new MRI to see if anything is changing that would cause me to be off balance and a non functional hunger switch....

oh geez Cheeka You poor thing. I really hope you feel better soon! If it'll help, I can spare 40 lbs. Just let me know where to put em.
