I bet you didn't know that when raising baby chicks you not only have to give them food, water and make sure they are warm enough..... You also have to make sure that there is no poop stuck to their bum!!!! If there is it makes it so they can't go poop and they DIE :(
So tonight I got to stick two of my 4 chickens bums in warm water then rub the poop off with a q-tip. After that they were put under the hair dryer (which I think they actually really enjoyed) before returning them to their domain.
I am actually really proud of myself for doing it. It took me 5 minutes of staring at the chickens and a call to my sister before I would even dare pick one up. I seriously contemplated waking Kaden up to come help me. I survived and I bonded with some chickens on this snowy Friday night. (JD was gone to a movie, otherwise I would've left him in charge)
