Exercising the chickens??????

Scott, Deidre & the kids have rented a camp at Brant Lake for a week & left Popster "babysitting" the chickens. He was not quite sure what he was supposed to do & had a few questions:
  • The bag  of food is in the barn......how much do I feed them???????
  • Let them out for some exercise.......how do I get them back in??????
  • Collect the eggs from the nesting boxes......what's a nesting box??????
I don't know about you but I suddenly got this mental image of Popster with the chickens on leashes!!

    Perhaps a little cricket or some netball would be appropriate exercise as they seem like educated chickens judging by their lodgings.

    My dad's chicken house had curtains in it....madness I tell you!

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot.  When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow.  Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out.  I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly.  Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes.  It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet.  Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners.  We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Molly bike riding????

Popster has been teaching Molly to run along side of his bike.  It has been a slow process but she's finally getting it.  They start off very slowly.......  then speed up a little......  which is when she gets crazy& decides to "carry" the leash......  gradually she feels more comfortable....  then she begins to gallop.... & the ears start to flap!!!!!
