Morel, what a wonderful thing to get to see God in action in such an obvious way. I know it happens every moment of every day, but its so very subtle that we fail to see all the glorious movements and devine interventions. But this? Well, this is a big thing and can only lead to better things for you.....I can't even imagine how patiently you have waited for this to happen!
I was thinking about your chickens as I was driving around to patients today....I know, I know~don't even say it!
Anyhoo....I was thinking of how neat it would be to make some saddles like they make over on the BYC for sore backs...only out of down-filled materials! You know, those cutesy little down-filled throws that you can buy at Wally World for around $10? How about cutting one up to make little vests/saddles? Velcro closures along the back seam....I can see them in my mind. Can you see your chicks walking around in little down vests? Its doable! It would keep their core body temps up...does this sound crazy? They would be washable and reusable.
AND...wait for it.....
You could have little coat hooks in the entrance to your coop, with name tags, on which to hang them when not in use!
