Things To Do Before Camp

I was busy this afternoon.  I made my Dad take down the heater because the chicks were roosting and pooping on it.

 I also had to remove the trash can that was filled with straw. The hens were sitting there instead of their roosts at night.  I cleaned the hen's coop today to use up the straw.

 

For dinner my Mom made waffles.  She had some extras so I tried to feed them  to the chicks.  I stood holding a waffle and the chicks just stared at it.  They were looking at me like "What is that!  I'm not gonna eat that!"  One chick took a couple of pecks and that was it.

 

Tomorrow Mom, Bea, and I are leaving "the guys" and heading to church camp at Custer.  I froze some M&M cookies and made oatmeal fudge bars for Dad and Fred to eat.

 

 

When I collected the eggs today there was some fencing wire by the coop.  So maybe when I return from camp there will be a fence and chicks playing outside!  I'll keep you posted.  Until next Saturday...
