First, our coop got a make over! We had new flooring installed, pine shavings. We couldn't have them at first because we didn't know the difference between flooring and food, so we had to prove to Mama that we knew what our food was and that we wouldn't be trying to eat the new flooring. We love our pine shaving!!!! We can scratch around in them and nestle down to take a nap. Deluxe!!!!
We also have roosting poles! It took a while to learn to balance on them, but now they are our preferred place to sleep. We feel like big shots when we roost!
Mama also installed a different kind of waterer. When you peck at this one, it dispenses a drink. We love it!!! It's so much fun!!
The ride can get pretty bumpy and Mama yells a lot at these big, scary, things called Fred and Ethel. They were really scary the first time we went to the spa. They barked and whined the entire time!! It was stressfull! But now they have calmed down a lot. They just lie around and keep an eye on us.
By the way, we're not chicks anymore. We're pullets!!!! |
Anyway, the Chick, Chick Spa is wonderful and we would recommend it to anyone. First of all it is big and roomy, so the first thing we do when we get there is flap our pretty new wings and fly around! Next we enjoy pecking around in this wonderful stuff called grass. It is cool and soft and has all kinds of nifty stuff hidden down in it like bugs and seeds and whatnot. There's a breeze blowing at the spa in the early morning and being there is simply divine. Mama sits in there with us sometimes and we love to sit on her bare feet and peck at her painted toe nails.
It's great being a chick at Turkey Creek Garden, there's just one problem. We've heard a rumor.... Four of us are going to live in Homer, La. Apparently, the coop (that's the mansion we'll move to once we feather out) is only big enough for half of us.
But it's probably just a rumor....
Talk to ya'll later,
