A journal of my first attempts at vegetable gardening, squash cultivation, and chicken raising.

Well, Taperman here, reporting that the girls are doing very well. They are a very bright group as you can see in the picture. They now have newspaper, paper towels, and pine shavings in their nursery, as well as a mini roost. Yesterday one of the high flyers actually made it all the way to the top of the water container. Of course I have checked all their little bottoms, and am happy to report there is no sign of the dreaded "pasty butt." I think by this weekend I'll have to double the size of the pen, and lower the temperature to about 80 degrees.

Looking good! Their feathers looks so different than when I saw them. And I'm very happy to hear that no one has pasty butt.
