Gasp!! Oh no. No, no, no. Oh please no!

One thing we forgot about having little chicks is the "dead chick phenomenon".  One minute they are zooming around, peeping & scratching.  You go about your business, happy to have such fun little birds in your living room.  A few minutes later you walk by and see this horror:

Just a pile of fluffy corpses.  Or worse yet, just one oblivious corpse, being heartlessly trodden on by the others.

I am a thespian.

This little drama queen was obviously born for our house.  She's giving that little extra "something" with the outstretched leg.








After the turkey vs. chicken throwdown we had last week, the "phenomenon" has been a bit of an adjustment.  Once adjusted, you just find the whole thing adorable.
