RE: Free Range Chickens: Some Ups and Downs.
I was glad to know the whole story about poor Lee. I loved how you wrote it...very clever. I think that Lee will get used to "her safe place" and will learn to love it. After all...she trained you well and she knows that she will get special treatment. LOL! Now I can see why and how you can get so attached to chickens and roosters. Great story @bchick! :)
Thanks. Silas and I had fun putting it all together. I am so sorry for the way it has all turned out for Lee but there is hope now that she will be safer. I have cut a small door in the fence so she can get into a part of the garden now that the veggies there are big enough to stand up to her scratching. And she does have me trained to come out and visit and bring treats.
Attachment indeed!
With everything Lee has been through, I think that she knows that you are trying to keep her safe and I bet she even feels more secure. Tell Silas that he did a great job helping with the story. :)
We got talking to a new UPS driver today and found out that he has no garden, so I gave him some veggies I had just picked, AND he does have chickens and roosters and an incubator. I asked him to think of us next time he has 3 newly hatched chicks and he said yes!
That was so nice of you to give him fresh picked veggies. How exciting about the new chicks you might be getting! So happy for you! :) And Lee too! :)
It does give me HOPE! He has been up here twice now so hopefully he will keep this route.
