And another one..
This is getting old but "White Pepper", our replacement for "Pepper" died this weekend. She had the same issues as "Salt" and "Pepper" even after my attempts at medicating with apple vinegar and hand feeding earth worms. "Salt 2" still seems to be healthy, however egg laying has halted. I built a proper roof (as opposed to a white plastic patio table) for the chicken house from the corrugate that I carried home in a thunderstorm creating a scene. Bleached the livin' piss out of the house and surrounding area, then bedded the house with a 50 lb sack of peanut shells. Nikki and I picked up about 300lbs of peanut shells from the field of peanut shell dunes accross from the peanut factory for about $1.50 total. With any luck she will be alive in a week and we can try again with another hen. RIP little hens.
