| Their first week out on the lawn! |
Hey everyone! I just wanted to drop a quick post on you about the chickens. So far, so good. They are out on the lawn soaking up some vitamin D, and avidly searching for bugs and worms. They seem to enjoy it! We did have one little issue with a chicken that had gotten hurt, and the rest of the flock pecked at her until she had a pretty violent looking gash in her thigh. So we isolated her and cleaned the wound with hydrogen peroxide, and applied a little antiseptic ointment. Just like one of my kids! I don't imagine she'll be on her own very long. Other than that, no real problems! I do want to test a nuclear warhead on that watering unit. It's a great concept, in theory, but it doesn't work. I'm filling it 3 or 4 times per day. I'm probably going to bring it back to Tractor Supply.
Thanks for reading,
-Jay
