Good evening myLotters! It's been a busy day here although I didn't do much except run to town for a few things from the dollar store.
I promised another photo of the little baby chick and here you go! This is the mess this little chick made all by herself. I cleaned out her bin last night and she had fresh paper towels all in place. What you see is what the inside of her tub looked like this morning when I got up. It only takes her a few hours in the day to destroy her habitat so I wait until night time now.
I had to take the quart size water bottle out because she managed to dump the whole bottle. How? I have no clue? It wasn't toppled over and it wasn't leaking. But this little tiny chick has been doing some really off the wall things for a little bitty creature. I decided to put the heavy glass lids that I use during the first week after hatching back in with her since we are not going anywhere and here to refill when Little Miss Royalty chirps. When she is out of water she will chirp and chirp and chirp so we know something is "off." Most of the time it is a refill my water please request.
That is how it is going with this little baby. She is living and acting just like a toddler going through the terrible twos and well on her way to being a teen queen!!

@DocAndersen Well in her case she has plenty of food that gets thrown out when she goes into scratching mode and throws it out of her dish!

@kareng He can be a dingbat 
He is actually a very busy guy this time of year. He runs a few farm stands. His family helps too. But he does the buying of produce to get them started early. He also does a lot of plants earlier in the year.

Maybe she's bored or lonely. When can she be out with the other chickens? Have a great 4th!

She will go outside to the grow out pen until she is big enough (almost adult size) to go into one of the chicken coops. I just hate that she is all alone. I should of gone to co-op and seen if any more chicks are available. I do have to go this coming week so I will ask and also ask at ours in town.

@LindaOHio It is doubtful that they will have any chicks left this late in the season so not going to count on that.

@kareng Good for you. Then she'll have some company and won't have to shred paper.!!!

Haha indeed she's acting like a toddler but I guess you like her so much and she's keeping you busy
