Oops......
Oct. 30th, 2008 10:20 pmI think I forgot to feed my chickens today :-(
I usually fill their feed bowl, water, and sprinkle scratch all around the yard the night before - so they can wake up to breakfast and have scratch to hunt down all day long.
Tonight I was following my routine and, for the first time ever, the chickens start coming out of their coop in the dark (well, I had the porch light on). They went right to the food.
I feel awful!! I must have been so wrapped up in myself I neglected them.
That won't happen again - they are still outside, and I have to leave the light on because if I turn it out it's completely dark and they won't be able to find their way back into the coop. Hope they will get tired and go back to bed soon.
