Cranky little man gets nap time

| We have had a sudden influx of aggression after the loss of our highest ranking hen to a sudden death. Based on a necropsy it was egg paratinitus(?) so things are stressful in the coop right now. this angry little grimlin isn't being malicious, he's just hormonal because spring, and stressed because the flock hierarchy is changing. So when he gets aggro we scoop. Currently the burdy burritos is simply because his feet are muddy and wet. But I sware some times it's like he is a toddler, getting cranky so he can come in and nap. I guess we need to add grey crocs onto the growing list of grey things that make him angry, like the grey food scoop and any picture of himself. [link] [comments] |
