I was making dinner when I heard a commotion in the chick tote. I looked up and what do I see...four little chicks trying to escape, and they were succeeding!
I took a picture of Perch, the chick in the first picture, trying to escape and sent it to Cammie. Perch is Cammies little pet, she calls his name and he looks up at her from inside the tote. Then she puts her hand down and he comes to her and hops in her hand.
I thought it would be fun to mess with Cammie. This is the text conversation we had.
Dawn: "The birds are staging a coup!!!!!"
Cammie: "Bahaha little Ferch! Good little birdie." (Yes, she spelt Perch, Ferch. Thanks to Steve most of us replace a variety of letter sounds with the letter sound F. Strange isn't it.)
Dawn: "For the last ten minutes they have been taking turns flying out!!! He is the ring leader."
Cammie: "Guinea pig cage." (Cammie has been trying to talk me into putting the chicks in a guinea pig cage.)
Dawn: "Banishment!!"
Cammie: "Put up the cage! With a stick for them to perch on and a shelf." My little ferch deserves the best."
Dawn: :(
Dawn: "The leaders of failed coups are usually made examples of, execution sounds fitting :)."
Cammie: "Mom!!!!! No!!! Run little ferch!"
Dawn: "Long evil laugh."
Oh it's fun being a mom!
No guinea pig cage for these birds. I set up an even better home for them and moved the chicks outside that very afternoon.
