Sunday Chicken Blogging

You might say I'm up with the chickens today except the chickens aren't up yet. Their state of the art brooder (also known as the downstairs shower) is in a windowless room yet, somehow, these birdbrains know when it's light and dark.

Our crippled chick didn't make it. She was eating and drinking and learning to stand. It appears though that she wan't pooping. Bad sign. We're trying not to think about her too much since we have three healthy chickens, one more than we had planned and they are growing like weeds. Today, I plan to band them since we can't tell them apart. I have no idea why we need to tell them apart.
