Louise Gets Sick!


In the middle of the summer, after Thelma got sick, Louise got sick too.  So, I ended up having an extended summer of tending to hens.  But we recovered and got well.  And as I said, the experience brought me and the hens closer.  They learned how to be held close and take their medicine.  They learned the routine of care. And they learned that I wanted them to feel good and well.  It was weird to be going through the experience of caring for sick hens as I knew that I was fighting city hall for the right to try and keep them.
