I hope everything is ok! We had quite a bit of rain, thunder and lightning, but nothing crazy

No real damage. A few limbs down. I threw out a little wet chicken feed. Glad I didn't fill the feeders yesterday. The feeders were under cover, but the wind was blowing the rain around something awful!
It looks like the flex seal worked well on the leak in the old coop! Good thing since my dumb chickens won't use the new coop.

Yep! Rest ignore you too!

Nope! Pancake and White Face follow me around to see what goodness I'll drop.

The mulberries are ripening and when I get mine, I'll drop the buggy ones. Few bounce twice. The ground under Grandpa's tree was covered in old berries. The chickens would have cleaned that up shortly.

Now, the rest of them try to ignore me. I'm working with the January pullets. We are getting better with sunflower seeds, but the old girls push the newer ones away. They are such pigs.

Have you ever seen an old, fat hen jump up and take a berry from a low hanging branch? They do it.

Yep! Pigs-they will eat almost anything

@Pullarius93 welcome to the Texas thread, come on over and say hello

Thank you! I was trying to figure out how to link a thread, and got distracted...

I know this isn't the emergency forum, but do you guys have advice on how to get a chicken's tongue untied? I think one of my girls are something that got wrapped around her tongue and is pulling her tongue down her throat. (This happened to a different chicken of mine like 6 weeks ago)... But I can't find the string this time. Her tongue is bleeding on the underside, and is turning white. I'm not a fan.

Any advice?

That's a new one. I'd probably just keep trying to find whatever it is
