The things we do for our birds...

Well, today the wind wrecked the rooster camp again. The Penny brothers found shelter under the trucktop. Close to the barn, but no cigar!
So yet again, I had to go on after them. This time crawling 15ft in a less than 2ft tall run. Through all the chicken poo, mud and other ewies, I finally made it to the back into the trucktop. And they again freak out like I want to eat them, ew, and eventually I catch them. I turn back around with one rooster under each arm, now crawling on my knees and elbows!
Ugh!!! No wonder I always smell like chicken!

Anyone else sacrifice themselves or w/e to help/better the lives of our birds?

Today I pressure washed the inside of the coop, by the time it was clean I needed to be pressure washed. I love the cleaning power but the flying poo is about gross.Two showers later I am almost as clean as the coop!

but i used to get one of my roosters, (preferably one of my banty roosters), and i would get a tooth brush, a rag and a cup of warm soapy water, and i would scrub my roosters feet, and massage them, i know is this wierd??? i didn't think so, but i used to do this all the time

I'm always rolling in the dirt or something for my pets, they make me happy so I have to keep them happy and fed. My pets are the love of my life, don't know where I'd be without them..
