As you can imagine, my daily chicken chores have been exercises in regret:
- Not enough floor space
- Storage door interferes with human inside coop
- Clumsy to put feed in storage
- Clumsy to get feed from can in storage
- Really clumsy to access pine shavings
I give my birds an evening treat to lure them into the coop. I often end up with birds underfoot who are very interested in supervising every detail of my access to the storage can of delicious black oil sunflower seed. Between the birds and the storage door I have nearly fallen face-first in the coop several times. I think I would have to take a Lysol bath if that ever happened! *shudder*
Last night I got mobbed by spoiled greedy chickens and it was the last straw. That storage room had to go!
Today I sent the birds out to their run and demolished the storage room. Now they had an extra roost and 8 more square feet to scratch around for nightly treats. If they subdivide, then each chicken will own a princely 8 square foot piece of real estate.
Donald Trump better watch his back.
