Shannon, Do you think it is ok to give them a bit of turnip greens? I bake the turnips and serve them warm. I like the stem part of the leaves to eat like a celery stick but one can only eat so many. My parent's garden has lush sections of chickweed and baby grass that I am going to pull up and bring home tomorrow and scatter all over their outdoor pens. I am hoping for a bit of warmer weather, at least 50, to get more dug out of the garden. I barely touched it today. The winter pears are begging to be picked, and I have two apple trees to pick yet too. I am over whelmed.
Our renter came over with receipts for a thermostat and needed the money now. I am hoping to hire him to help me clean in the morning. I am up to being able to shovel 6 shovel fulls of dirty bedding at time - not enough- not fast enough. I want to keep my chicks in nice condition.

You are really taking good care of those show birds and that's what it takes (get the best - pick the best - feed the best - prepare them the best and WIN WIN WIN !!!)

I used their crumbs left in their tray troughs. Now I am warmed back up I need to go out and feed and water. After I feed them their treat, I pulled and trimmed carrots and turnips. While finishing up the last batch a wind and drenching cold rain soaked me thru. Think I will wash the carrots and bucket of potatoes I dug inside tonight. There is still at a least a bushel of potatoes waiting for a warmer day to rinse off.
