It was so nice out this afternoon that we decided we wanted to take the chickens outside for a bit. Only problem was we didn't have anything to keep them contained. So we ran off to Del's Farm Store just down the street from us to pick up some chicken wire. We're going to need some for the coop anyway, so we figured we'd just pick some up now. When we got back, we rigged up a make-shift pen and then brought the chickens downstairs for their first outside experience.
They seemed to have a fine time picking around in the jungle that is our lawn. They ate some grass and presumably some bugs before the sneezing attack began. First one chick started sneezing, then another, and within a few minutes they were all doing it with increasing frequency. So, back into the tub they went. Hopefully they don't have allergies....but if they do, do they make Benadryl for chickens?
