Default The Nervous System of a Chicken

I love my chickens. I got 8 more. I now have 23 girls, all with names that I will not bore you with, and 2 boys....Anders and Lars.

I have vowed to be less like a chicken. To not panic and run into a more dire situation....such as an electric fence.

Chickens experience communal panic, such as when a dog barks, they ALL jump and run for what they perceive to be safety. Following the crowd is not always the best thing to do.

Chickens are physically fit and can run very fast....I am not, but I am getting better at it, however, fast is not always better. Slow and steady is good.

I better go open the little coop door now.

I don't know if it is just summer that is making me feel better, or if finally, finally, my ivig has kicked into overdrive. I just feel pretty good right now, which is really rare for me. No, not normal, but, better. I will take what I can get. Any slight reprieve is a relief. It is all relative, you know. Off to feed the ladies and move around the fence.

Default I JUST gotta ask? WHY????

Names of Anders and Lars????
Isn't IVIG akin to taking a double cappucino with a dollop of dope? You are both High and LOW at the same time. I liken it to a 'war of the immune system' with in myself? And, truly IT is!
Those are well kept 'birds' and they are royally treated! They don't know it tho, and I guess we better not tell them?
May the IG keep on 'kicking'! - j 's !

Anders and Lars have a harem of 23 chicks with Swedish names, lol....yes, I know I am strange.

Thanks for the well wishes....same wishes to all....I wish all of us could be normal for even a day...ok....maybe 2...or 3....why not a million??

My chickens are apparently not trained well enough to go into their coop at dusk....darn things....This has resulted in a chicken chase at dusk every nite. About half of them now do go in to roost, without an escort. The other half we have to round up and even chase and catch. It's hillarious to any one watching.... for hubby....he is not entertained.
