Texas

So, these cold fronts keep coming through down here and with it high winds.  Two days ago it got real muggy and gusts of 30+mph.  Well long story short the gusts knocked over a pallet fence that I had built and trapped two of my hens under it.  Unfortunately, I did not see this and it was at least 3 hours later that I came across the fallen pallet.  So, I lost two hens.
That same day a co-worker of my wife asked if we could keep a chick.  Her young son has not been a good week for chickens went to a birthday party and apparently the hosts gave out week old chicks to the children.  Had to set up the brooder for this little one.


Well this has been a horrible week for chickens. I'm sorry about your hens! I know you feel horrible, but kinda exciting about the new little one! I've heard that this is a trend in bday party favors-giving chicks away. How stupid can some people be?
