Spent an hour or so this morning building a chicken tractor so my hens can get out of their sandy run now and then and pretend to free range through the yard. They are HAPPY. Look, a BUG!
( I completely understand tho because they are living in a huge plastic ware in my kitchen.... I bring them outside a lot and have a kiddie pool for them but they just stand by my sliding door and chirp to come back in. I live in a residential dubdivision in Michigan and I'm surprised none of my neighbors haven't called our sub association on me yet. I did the almighty crime of buying an animal that I couldn't completely commit too... And I usually no better but I bought them for my mothers pond thinking I could keep them till they feathered and after reading stuff online..... I would feel much to guilty leaving them out there exposed to all the elements and not having a place at night to b enclosed....she lives in a condo so it isn't just her pond.... I feel like such an idiot for buying them. I put an add on Craigslist but everyone that called seem unqualified to give them a proper home... I few people wanted to eat them ( and I couldn't live with myself knowing I sent them to that fate(( any farmers in Michigan who would like them......?..
ok, this is just the fuzziest salmon favorelle chick I've ever hatched. I believe it's also the cutest!
