Chirping
Today my previously calm and friendly three week old chicks have decided I'm actually the devil incarnate. Maybe it's a hormonal/developmental stage thing; maybe it's because I didn't take them outside yesterday (the weather was vile and I had more chicks hatching); maybe it's because I gave them kale sprouts instead of the purple sprouting broccoli they've been enjoying; maybe there's some other reason that only makes sense to bird brains. We'll work it out.
One of the teenage cockerels also hates me right now because I tried to give him some leftover macaroni. Usually the teens aren't great at trying new foods but I think he thought it was a slug or a leatherjacket and now he's feeling betrayed that I could ever pull such a dirty trick.
Do you have a rage-filled rooster? A sulky silkie? A disappointed duck or an inexplicably terrified turkey? What awful thing did you do to make them hate you today?
