After I got the meat birds done,the next day I cleaned out the small coop and moved the new layers in there.
They've been afraid of me, so after I put some grit in there and made sure that they had been eating it, I cut up some lettuce for treats. It didn't take too long before I became their new BFF. We get along pretty good now.
That's Lucy outside the coop watching. She is not happy. She kept pacing and making "Mad Hen" noises. After I fed the little ones I gave the older hens some grain on the floor. Well Lucy just kept giving me the "Chicken Eye" until I let her eat some out of my hand. Usually she will let one of the other hens grab a bite or two also. Not this time She chased the other ones away whenever they would come near. I guess she thinks I'm her farmer. Pretty funny. Gramma has vacation next week and we are going to the lake for a couple of days and try and paint the cabinette. Then she's going to stay with her Mom for a couple of days. I think we may have a calf by the time I get back from the lake. At least I hope so. Anyway, that's all I know. Does anyone read this tripe or am I just whistling in the wind?
I'm reading the tripe. Keep it coming!
