one time, my brother was eating a burger near the trash can (because he was going to throw away his napkins, not the burger) and my chicken, stilts was watching him. the moment before my brother finished, she flew up onto the trash can and took a bite for herself. it was a lot more hilarious in real life

I have a sweet story to share, and it is a recent one.
One of my muscovies was having a hard time walking, so I separated him from the flock. He grew very depressed, and wouldn't eat or drink. I thought he might not make it. One chilly morning I went out to check on him, and he was not able to walk. Also, he was shivering (even though he was inside the barn). His face was almost a pinkish purple from the cold.
I moved him into the other side of the barn, the one I use for rabbits and meat birds. I knew he was too weak to hurt them. I currently have seven or eight young cornish cross, a turkey poult and four just feathered pullets (I hope ( ; ). They didn't seem to mind very much when I first put him under the heat lamp, but they freaked out when he tried to drink some of their water out of a nearby bowl.
This was a few days ago.

Now he is mending from whatever it was, and is eating and drinking. The young birds that were terrified of him have now adopted him as a member of their little gang, and when he fluffs out his feathers and settles down for a nap, all of them crowd around him and snuggle in his feathers. He seems very happy, and doesn't miss his flock as much.
