There's a Chicken in My Bathroom

Yes, there is a chicken in my bathroom.

Meet J.J.or Little J as we like to call her.

J.J. is one of our original show birds that our daughter used when she was showing poultry.

J.J. is retired now and has been living a comfortable life in the chicken coop retirement home.

That is until the sub zero temps took hold this past week and plunged us into a deep freeze!

J.J. developed a cold!

Yes, a chicken with a cold!

Well it's more like an upper respiratory infection, but cold sounds better.

J.J. is almost ten years old, so she wasn't handling the sub zero temps very well.

So I moved her into the bathroom a few days ago.

Started her on a round of antibiotics yesterday.

She seemed to be sneezing less today and showed other signs of improvement.

She is eating well and seems to really like her posh surroundings. 

She is really a fan of the extra little treats she has been getting.

J.J. will mostly likely be in the house for awhile or at least until our temps warm back up some.

By the way, J.J. is a silky hen, just in case you were wondering.

The cats and dog all think she is fascinating.

She could care less about them!

She's much too busy enjoying her new digs! 

I may or may not be known as the crazy chicken lady around here! 

HA!
